Your beliefs create your future

Have you ever had a moment in life that challenged everything you believed about your future? I certainly have. In 2018, I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and I remember feeling that the future I had imagined suddenly disappeared.  My mind filled with questions, uncertainty, and fear.

How to show your love

Life is a voyage of self-discovery and learning self-love is one of the main steps on that journey. To love ourselves is to know ourselves, but, after we love ourselves, how do we share our love with friends, family, and spouses?

The Magic That Happens Outside Your Comfort Zone

Our comfort zones wrap around us like a favorite blanket because there’s a certain coziness in staying where things feel safe and familiar.  And while there’s nothing wrong with comfort, I’ve learned that growth rarely happens when everything stays easy.  The truth is, a comfort zone isn’t comfortable at all; it’s a place that encourages fear, boredom, and stagnation.
