Four years ago, a man halfway around the world wrote a simple comment on an online review that changed both of our lives. Today we tell the story.
Please note, it is a story that involves big issues: alcoholism, sexual abuse, physical abuse, parental neglect, financial hardship, and childhood trauma. It is also a story that involves hope, resiliency, new beginnings, and is a testament to our ability as humans to continue to reach, evolve and remake ourselves, regardless of what our past holds.
My special guest today is Paul Pettit, Certified Reiki, Reflexboloy, Life Coach, and my husband. I am beyond honored to be able to share this man and our life experiences with you all.
Love is always the answer.

Pause to think back to the reality of what your past holidays have been like. Merry and bright? Or not quite. How have you felt December 26th?
Reality is a tough teacher. What I have found is that I felt disappointed, exhausted, strung out, and frankly, thrilled the whole damn thing was over. Not quite merry and bright.
I have three simple steps for you that can help you start to shift out of your past holiday experiences into one where you feel calmer, more peaceful, and more enjoyment.

Relationships are a necessary piece of our human existence.
From the moment we are born, we strive to connect and attach with the other beings in our lives.
In order to have deep connected relationships we get to have deep connected conversations with those we’re in relationship with. In thriving relationships, you’ll have plenty of opportunities for deep or difficult conversations and this is a good thing. Expect it as that means you’re growing, striving, and moving into that next great level.
When a topic comes up for discussion, instead of resisting it or putting it of, follow these 5 steps to strengthen the connection in your important relationships and have GREAT conversations!

Trying to control our kids’ lives gives us an illusion of calm and feels good in the moment.
Plus it’s what everyone else is doing so until you learn how it impacts our kids, why would you choose to do differently?
I’ll tell you why.
Because it actually doesn’t feel good for you or your kid.
We are under the illusion that if we let go of control everything will fall apart.
The irony is that we feel more out of control than ever.
Listen in as I share one of my favorite tools to help with this.
