Growth occurs before our very eyes but we don’t notice it because it happens slowly. The perfect example: a child, my daughter Sophia. Reflecting upon the past 3 years (yesterday she turned 3); there were days and nights that latest an eternity and I wished them away, yet now I look at how rapidly she has grown – physically, mentally,
Shifting the way we view success can have positively staggering consequences for the way we measure ourselves. Most of us recognize “success” when we hear it. “The person who launched x corporations, wrote x number of books, headed the philanthropic association, guest-appeared on Oprah, shook hands with the queen, and flew to mars …” Recently, as I sat, sunken in
I’ve spent way too much thought power the past month trying to refine my fitness goals for 2018. Since I used to be a competitive dancer and cheerleader, always with a competition in sight, I’m struggling with the no end-point.

Super healthy, easy to make, minimal fuss, delicious, homemade granola. This is an absolute favorite! Enjoy for breakfast with yoghurt and fruit. Or by itself, as a snack! For quite some time I was a skeptic about making my own muesli or granola. It seemed hard…. Gosh, was I so wrong. It is the easiest thing you’ll ever make and
Working the rather sedentary 9-6+++ (because let’s be honest, who clocks off at 5pm these days, unless you start the day earlier or your logging into conference call from home) does present with unique challenges to health and weight.

Gosh, is it that time of year again?! Making resolutions can be a wonderful way to set your year’s intentions and focus. They can also end up a completely futile, even negative task, leaving you disappointed and dissatisfied. According to 2017 statistics, merely 9.2% of respondents felt they were successful in achieving their resolutions! That’s pretty slim. Huffington Post writer,
You know that stomach-straining, nauseating, possibly even painful, feeling you get when you’ve eaten way too much? I do! Despite having a hold on my overeating the past few years, I haven’t forgotten that sickly, binge eating feeling. In fact, the feeling comes on all too strong when I think about it.
