Who wants to cook on a hot summer night??? Here’s the perfect dish…………..

1 ½ Cup Quinoa Cooked
16 ounces Roasted Chicken, cut into chunks
½ Red Onion Chopped
2 Red Peppers Chopped
3 Stalks Organic Celery Sliced
¼ Cup Organic Olive Oil
Juice of ½ Lemon
Sea Salt & Pepper to taste

Make sure the quinoa is cooled before preparing the salad.

Assemble ingredients in a decorative glass bowl, dress with olive oil and lemon & season and you’ve got a delicious and healthy salad!!!

I usually make a double batch of quinoa and use one serving for dinner and the other I refrigerate and use for lunch the next day – chicken salad.

If you are anything like me – you believe that each of us is here for a reason!! So there’s no time like the present to claim your feminine power and be the leader you are meant to be!!!

1) Flexibility – And no I’m not talking about whether or not you can do a headstand or touch your toes:) I’m referring to being able to dance with changes. While growing up My Dad was famous for telling us to be like a tree. When it’s windy go with it, when it snows bear down and take the ice, sway and dance with the wind. Don’t fight it. Embrace it otherwise the limbs will break. And the tree will be no more. Same principle here with your business – be flexible but never lose sight of your vision!!!!

2) Your Mental Attitude – Be positive -Be happy. Believe with ever fiber in your being that you are right where you are meant to be and that you are a success!!! 90 percent of success is believing in yourself. Meditate and be quiet with your thoughts at least once a day. Without a a positive mindset you will go nowhere fast.

3) Perserverance – Be the chartered boat on the water – navigate and stay on course no matter what!!!! Life will throw all sorts of curve balls at you. Just keep swinging!

4) Strong Leadership Skills- Ok you are the captain of your vessel. See where your ship is going and take it from there. Organize and have a plan. Structure your time and have boundaries. Schedule time for you and your business. If you are not eating right and exercising your boat will float but it will never cruise. Take charge and get it done. With leadership comes responsibility – “Take it its yours” (my favorite line from Troy-as stated by Brad Pitt)

4) Emotional “Smarts”- For some of us being emotionally smart has taken quite a bit of time. Some of us aren’t even there yet☺ Its all good! It’s the love of the journey and we all have a different map. By emotional smarts I mean the ability to communicate in a positive way! Do on to others!!!! Learn and exercise some social intelligence. Social skills and how to be tactful. (my Sag friends know what I’m talking about ).

6) Take Control of your Life – No excuses just results!! It doesn’t matter what’s going on in your life – Be responsible –regardless of your circumstances you must be willing to grow personally. Dig deep there’s a diamond just below the surface aching to be found and polished. We are all “works in progress”. When you begin a business “Your Junk Surfaces” – its time to breakthrough and go forward. Take control of your life by addressing the issues that come up – make peace with them and move on…..

7) Relationships – Team – No matter how hard you try and you can certainly die trying – don’t do it alone. Yes I know you are SUPERWOMAN – been there done that!!! All you do it burn out and then you are good for nothing!!! Learn to delegate it’s the greatest thing since sliced bread. Hire others and let them do what they are good at. As women we are all things to all people – time to let that go sista – if not go back to your old gig!!!! Take it from me –“Don’t do it alone” Hire your “Dream Team”. Create alliances that mentor and support you. There is strength in numbers!!!! Let’s take our energy and put it into one another – its about time that we unite!!!! And you know that as women we love to have “A Partner in Crime” lol

I have just returned from a week-long mastermind session with my mentor Kendall Summerhawk. I was surrounded by 50 other Money Marketing and Soul entrepreneurs. I have never felt so much energy and in one room. It was the perfect environment for growth and empowerment.

While working on “Branding with Archetypes”, I experienced an “Aha” moment. I am finally aligned with my purpose and it feels amazing.

Deep down I have always known what I wanted to do but out of fear I suppressed my authentic purpose. My heart and intuition knew all along but I didn’t want to acknowledge my calling. The heaviness of that denial has finally left me and all I feel is the lightness of success!!!

Once I identified my Archetypes, my brand flowed with passion and ease. I found the fulfillment of my purpose.

When you are aligned with your authentic purpose life flows with ease and success follows. Be true to your heart and listen closely to your inner voice – it will NEVER fail you.

I have spent money (that I didn’t have) on many workshops, seminars, and coaches.  The commonality that prevails in the knowledge that I have attained is a six figure income is attainable when you are in alignment with your passion.

Where there is aligned passion, money is sure to follow. What would you do for free? It runs in your blood, its part of your being.

Let me show you how its done.

I know where I’m going, don’t you want to come too?

Many businesses talk about their “tribe”.  Some businesses erroneously think of a “tribe” as a customer base. This is not correct. You are not part of a tribe because you buy a particular service or product.   A tribe is qualified by their connections.  Members of a tribe are connected to each other, to an idea, services, employees, and products.  They create a network of connections to the business as a whole.

So who is your tribe????

Regardless of how you pronounce it, without it, true success is not possible.

As women we want to be all things to all people.  And yet you wonder why you are exhausted!!  Stop the insanity and choose one group that you are truly passionate about and work with them.  The more specific your niche the better! Stop the insanity and make a selection – don’t let fear paralyze you – instead let it propel you. Read the rest of this entry »

Life becomes much better when we focus on the positive and we are truly grateful for what we have. When we become truly aligned with our spiritual purpose its imperative that we express gratitude. Keep a gratitude journal and watch the magic begin. The more you express gratitude, the more the universe will give you to be grateful for. Read the rest of this entry »
