I THINK I K(AFT)AN, I THINK I K(AFT)AN

There’s a lot we can learn from The Little Engine That Could. The saying goes, “I think I can. I think I can,” doesn’t it? He thought he could. So he did. And that my friends, is called manifesting abundance.I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about an abundant mindset; about the value of positivity and about what we put out into the universe through our own thoughts.

THE ULTIMATE SUMMER PLAYLIST

There’s nothing better than driving in the summertime- music turned up, windows down, sun and wind in your face. Maybe it’s my Midwestern upbringing, or the fact that there was nothing for teenagers to do in my hometown except drive around, but cruising on a warm night with my favorite tunes on repeat makes my heart happy.

WHAT I’M READING: WAKE UP TO THE JOY OF YOU

Last month when I attended W.E.L.L. Summit Boston (more on that here), I had the pleasure of meeting Agapi Stassinopoulos, best-selling author and motivational speaker who inspires audiences around the world. Having now sat through one of her keynote addresses, I can officially bear witness to this truth. Agapi’s energy is warm and captivating and motivating and emotional.

JUST SAY NO

I was in a Dunkin’ Donuts drive-thru the other day, waiting for my medium cold brew coffee with a light splash of cream, when I had an epiphany. And it involved the “N” word.Cards on the table- this is not the “N” word you’re probably thinking of. This epiphany involved a simple word. One that many of us learn to say in the first year of our lives. Two little letters that have a profound effect on the nature of our days, on how we express our wants and needs, and on how we react to situations…
