Through these candid confessions and reflections, you will understand that we are all connected. We are united by similar fears, self-doubt, and pressures.

We each hold a key to unlocking our fullest potential through inspired action.

Take it off.

I used to have anxiety about wearing a bathing suit. I would be the one glued to the chair and careful to slither into my clothes to walk a few steps. I was self-conscious, insecure and gave far too many F’s what others thought of me. I cared so much, I lost sight of the one voice that mattered. Mine. Even as a “skinny girl,” I wished for more. I had what others wanted and so I never felt like I had permission to feel the way I felt; instead, I felt shame and a growing discomfort in my own skin. I had placed my value in the hands of beauty standards. It was never enough. My own standards had become buried and the lens in which I saw myself chipped away at my self-confidence.

Love is in the (salty) air

This time, I come to you from the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. The past few weeks have been a marathon of travel. The disorganization of work and absence from being inside the gyms has felt overwhelming at times, but I'm proud that I've been able to stay flexible and present wherever my two feet have been planted. Currently, they are planted on the deck of cabin room 622. I am met with salty air and the sound of the ocean splashing against the ship. A cruise ship. Ted and I are joined by 12 other couples from the St. Louis chapter of EO (Entrepreneur's Organization). I feel so grateful for this opportunity. The chemistry and bond of this organization is special. There's an inherent understanding and loyalty that runs deep. As a first-time entrepreneur, I learn so much and am often reminded to slow down. So, I guess I am.

Event Recap: Joy in Marriage & Motherhood

I recently hosted a live event alongside my very own Marriage Therapist & Relationship Coach, Mika Ross. I spent years avoiding conversations and allowing resentment to build that by the time Ted and I walked into Mika’s office together, our message was, “Save us because we can’t.” We still shared the same North Star, but we were so disconnected that we couldn’t navigate there on our own. We were speaking two completely different languages and running everything through our own filters that were muddied with our own biases, insecurities, and fears.

Don’t ignore your stepping stones.

I started working wedding banquets when I was 13 years old. I saved every paycheck and bought my first car in cash. I learned the only way to have money is to save money...and that driving in the summer with no AC sucks.
