If you are a normal functioning human being, you are likely feeling an increase in stress due to Hurricane Florence. If you are like me you have a 100 questions running through your head, “Will it hit us? How much rain is going to come? Will my house and property get damaged?

One Simple Thing I Do To Lose Weight…
I am excited about celebrating Mau Mau Libby’s 80 Birthday this weekend. What about you? What is one NON-WORK related thing you are excited about his week?

To motivate myself when I am tempted to go astray I will focus on that beach trip,...
Reduce Bloating, Drop Some Water Weight, and Improve Your Energy Levels
Today I am going to challenge you all to a 24 hour detox. As general rule, I am NOT a huge fan of detoxes mainly because of how they are marketed to the general population.

Detoxes are not a permit solution but they can help you feel better and get a jump start. With that said, I challenge you to a 24 hour fruit and veggie detox ;-). If you are like most people, you...

On top of that, a seriously doubt there is anything cooler than training a new client who is super eager and ready to change their lifestyle and develop new habits. Often times these new clients are working really hard trying to undo what has often taken years to get to. They are trying to make up for lost time. However...
50 Random Ways To Show Random Acts Of Kindness
Have you performed at least one act of random kindness every day this week? I hope and pray you have. If you have please write back and share ;-). On Monday, I got up early and played with the kids so Beth could sleep in. On Tuesday, I showered the kiddos because I knew Beth was busy with dinner. On Wednesday I drove an extra hour to pick up some food items because someone had accidentally misplaced them. I don’t list those things to brag, but to show you that performing acts of kindness is not that hard. Plus, the...
