Keep It Classy

When confronted with business realities and LIFE. It may at times be challenging to keep our composure. Let alone if on the one end we’re being told as women not to be to demanding or overbearing or ultimately b*tchy.

As women it’s a truth that must be faced however, we decide how we want to be perceived. It’s our lack of self control or self awareness (which we are responsible for) that little by little leaves a breadcrumb of who we are becoming.

Opting to have a creative venture is one of the ways we can truly discover what makes us, us.

Deciphering our true motives and intentions behind our pursuits is key. Our we doing it for ourselves? Our people? Our community? Our family? To what end?

Might our emotions be justifiable in a moment of discontent and discomfort? Absolutely.

However, there is a time and a place. And learning to understand the nuances of life is one of the many gifts we’ve all been granted.

When you’re cranky, sleep deprived, hangry, overwhelmed, tired, annoyed, aggravated…

Keep In Mind:

Keep It Classy

April Showers Bring May Flowers... | Your Attitude Towards Self Awareness

Dear Friend,

It has been rather cold lately. We’ve had a couple of dreary days and even a bit of snowfall. I asked myself, “ it is spring right?” And then I kindly reminded myself, that I created a “Hello Spring!” Post for the contracting business. Internal conversations have us thinking we really need our own comedy show sometimes (just me?).

The exciting thing about change is that if we make the decision to follow the direction towards optimization of productivity and we learn to give ourselves and others grace, what blooms can be really beautiful. Gaining the understanding that you’ve overcome a particular challenge before and that you will in fact face it and overcome this new version of it is truly satisfying.

The catch is understanding who you are. Who you truly are. Not the projection of others of you or the perception, but the real you. This seems to come with time, at least that has been my personal experience.

Identifying, what helps you figure these things out about yourself is crucial but not impossible, even if at times it seems so. In our culture today, it seems there is much confusion about many things and one of the tools we have been blessed with its availability of, is language. Any language. A way to communicate, comprehend, explain and pass on information. It seems it is our responsibility to make the most of what we have and if we fall short (as some of my ideas expressed in this very post might display), learn more, apply more, keep going, until you find the word that truly describes what is.

Although we might experience many failures, or dreary rainy April Showers, the flowers will come, perhaps in May.

Deciding to live healthier…


Deciding to live healthier…

Consists of several factors.

It can be the food you eat or don’t eat.

The sleep you get or don’t.

The stress you tolerate or don’t. (This one often leads to making tough calls)

and so on…

But ultimately it’s a decision.


In the beginning of any journey it’s difficult to take the first step or even the first 1,000 steps but as you make small action moves towards them the journey that was once feared, avoided, doubted, abandoned, will slowly reveal itself.

We know, we feel, think and are better when we take care of ourselves.

It’s just difficult to stray from the status quo until it’s not.
