2724 What Baggage Is In Your Bedroom?
Have you taken the time to declutter your marriage? Believe it or not, spouses carry baggage to the altar and after, and never deal with it. What baggage is in your bedroom? No one wants to admit it, but we all have skeletons in the closet. Some you may have shared with your spouse prior to marriage. Others may be after marriage. Yet, what about the ones that are still hiding? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT The baggage you have in your bedroom clutters your love for your spouse. It holds a piece of your heart hostage that doesn't allow healing, forgiveness, grace, and love to grow. The baggage that you carry is like mold. Until you suffocate what's feeding it, the mold still grows. And that means your heart and marriage are still suffering unnecessarily. Now, I'm not here to say that all baggage is easy to get rid of. In fact, it might take some years to go through the mess and heal from the damage. But the process is so vital to having a healthy marriage. If you can't share your whole life with your partner, then what part of your life are you sharing? And is it real? Marriage takes two people to come together to be one with each other. If you have baggage that keeps stacking up, then how will you ever overcome stuff that's smothering the love out of your marriage? Do you want to have a marriage with little to less baggage? Don't continue to donate your baggage, destroy it. The K.I.S.S. ~ Don't donate, destroy the baggage! A lot of us hold on to what we think can help us in the long run, but in actuality, it does more harm than good. Don't donate your hurt or misfortunes. Don't pass along your frustrations and anger. Destroy what is killing you from the inside out by getting rid of the baggage that holds your heart and letting yourself breathe freedom not from what you do, but what God can do in and through you. "Your bedroom is a sanctuary for your marriage, not a storage house for your past burdens." ~ Kristianne Wargo Please understand that this work in destroying your baggage is not about tossing it into the trash. More so, it's about the psychological, spiritual, and emotional work which needs to be accomplished. Make space to grieve your loss. Whatever you have in your baggage has something that you want to hold onto, yet you know it's bad if you do. However, you're willing to take that chance, because it hurt too much way back when. So give yourself room, that space you need to take in what happened. You are looking at your life through a different lens. "Be ready to give up the past so you can enjoy the present and prepare better for tomorrow." ~ Kristianne Wargo This is your time to process. Forgive and don't judge. You can own your past and what happened. At the same time, you can love yourself for the lessons learned. Life is precious. Marriage is sacred. So don't keep adding to your baggage. Let go of what is no longer yours to keep. Hold on to the lessons learned. And give yourself permission to love deeper. Celebrate with a bang. If you've made the commitment to destroy your baggage and declutter the bedroom, then you deserve to celebrate one of the hardest decisions you'll ever make. And that celebration may be personal and private. It could be with someone very close to you, a confidant. It could be your spouse even. You need to celebrate how far you've come from where you started with the baggage you carried. You, my friend, are free from the baggage. You don't have to lug all the bags all around. Let Santa Claus be the only one who does. And that's a happy bag. But seriously, letting go of what is no longer serving you and your heart is the best thing you can do for your spouse and your marriage. CHALLENGE: What baggage do you have that you need to let go of? What do you need in order to process this for yourself? What is the first step for you in decluttering the baggage in your bedroom? Be protective not of what has happened to you, but who is for you. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

2723 Specialize in the Impossible
Children are a handful no matter what age. But with all the good and challenges you face in today's world as a parent, there is still hope you can raise remarkable children. Specialize in the impossible. You have to believe in your child more than he/she believes in himself/herself. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT Parents have it rough. I've been enjoying my grandbaby this past week-and-a-half or so. For one thing, I know why we have children at a young age. It's been such a pleasure to watch him grow day after day after day; his little mind making neural pathways for him to find his way. I am amazed at how intricate our minds are at all ages, young and old. However, in today's world, I know parents have challenges I did not have to face when all of mine were little ones. Technology (phones, tablets) Social media Formula shortages Cost of living Lifestyle expectations A pandemic Safety Crime Gender identity The list goes on and on. And you're probably thinking of some right now. Our world is not the same as it was a couple of decades ago. However, the little humans we are raising -- they are the same. So what has changed? Our parenting styles? Our attitudes? Our patience? Our focus? If you want to stay ahead of the curve and be the best parent you can be, specialize in the impossible. The K.I.S.S. ~ Specialize in the impossible! You get to be the superhero for your child! Wear your cape that marks your skills of specializing in the impossible. Be a parent, not a victim of having a child. You have got to stand up for what's right in your family. You have got to teach your child right from wrong. Stop being a friend and thinking that if your child likes you, they will turn out okay and not get into any trouble. Let me remind you of the terrible two's. Yes, trouble starts early. It's time to reign it in. Be a parent! Be consistent in your requests/demands. What are you asking of your child? They need to understand where you are coming from and how far they can push you. Don't let the child win. This is not about your child's rights. You must instill within your child the morals and values you want them to live by after leaving home. Now some would argue that parents can't control their children. They can do what they want to do. And yes, this is called growing up. This is the stage of hard knocks in the real world. Regardless, you have to be consistent. Be approachable in any situation. This is where your unconditional love shines. No matter what happens in life, your child is yours. But one thing that must be understood is that you are doing your best, and you do not control everything, but you do have extreme influence. So don't pass the buck. However, you want to listen to your child and understand their position in any situation. That doesn't mean you agree with them. Yet your presence extends your love. Mama, you don't have to have all the answers. But you do need to parent. And that's why we're better together. We can learn from one another and gain support. Specialize in the impossible. Instill belief in your child and in your heart. You're going to make mistakes as you parent. You're going to say the wrong thing at the wrong time. Mom -- you're doing your best. And when you're thinking about, "Am I doing what's best for my child?" ask yourself this question. QUESTION: Does speaking or taking action in this manner promote the child I want to see when they grow up? Don't be a passive parent. Be an active parent who cares more about your children than the notifications from your phone. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #ConfessionsOfAnUpsetMama #CreateYourNow #TodaysParent TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

2722 Take the Shot!
What you think might be your last shot may actually become your first shot that changes everything. Don't give up on your dreams. Take the shot! Wayne Gretzky said, "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take." Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT I'm not sure if you follow sports, but this is the season of the Stanley Cup. You've got Colorado and Tampa Bay playing in the final. During the start of the fourth game, Colorado led Tampa Bay 2 - 1. But the game couldn't end during the normal game time. Instead, it went to overtime with Colorado winning. What was remarkable is that Nazem Kadri made the winning goal. He's been out since the play-offs against Edmonton from a thumb injury on which he had surgery. Who would have thought that the night upon his return would be the shot that elevated Colorado to a strong 3 game win? When you have injuries to your hands, it puts a damper on your ability to play well. As Kadri said, "I've been waiting for this my whole life. I figured it was time to join the party." The K.I.S.S. ~ Take the shot! You may feel overwhelmed by the pressure you've put on yourself or even others. Maybe you feel less competent unless you get a few more things accomplished. If you can drag your feet on your dreams, you'll never see them come to life. Don't wait for everything to be perfect. Take the shot! Just like Kadri believed, you are made for more. And nothing needs to get in the way of your dreams. CHALLENGE: What is it that's holding you back from taking the shot? Own it. Don't dance around and try to ignore it. Face your fear with courage and take the shot! Jump in with both feet. You got this! And when you need a little pick-me-up, come back and ask to borrow the belief torch I've been carrying for you. Yes, my friend, nothing is impossible. The world can look bleak and the times can be challenging. But that doesn't have to put out the fire in your heart! Stop missing 100% of the shots that matter. Take one last shot. It just may be the beginning of something greater. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

2721 Why Does Sleep Really Matter to Healthy Living?
With the warmer (and in some cases hot) weather, staying on a schedule is challenging especially when it comes to sleep. Why does sleep really matter to healthy living? All it takes is good food and exercise. Or does it? Sleep is a vital component of living a balanced life. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT And that balance comes from your body being able to regulate glucose, hunger cravings, restlessness, melatonin and so much more. But unfortunately, we have been groomed to think we can do whatever we want and it won't affect our health. This is a lie!! Calories in and calories out are not the only deciding factor in weight gain or loss. Sleep affects several hormonal and metabolic processes that keep your overall metabolism in homeostasis or balance. So to improve your lifestyle, you want to get as much sleep as possible which will benefit your mind, body, and spirit. The K.I.S.S. ~ Get as much sleep as possible! And this is not an easy task. I have been battling this for decades. Some because of over-commitment. Others because of procrastination. And what's left over is just a crazy schedule always. This is real life for me. Most of the time, I only get 4-5 hours of continual sleep at a time. So every night, I fall short of 3-4 hours. Now, I am built differently as my family would say. But that doesn't mean that sleep is not important. Just because you can stay up late, or have over-committed to people, doesn't mean you should stay up. Past your bedtime is REAL not for just children, but for young and old adults alike. You and I need sleep. That is a universal truth. But what we tend to overlook is that sleep is a learned behavior. Well obviously, we know I failed. Instead of dragging yourself through the day, learn to improve your slumber. Get as much sleep as possible. Set a regimented sleep and wake schedule. And of course, you want to be as consistent as possible. Deviating can raise insulin resistance. And if you are wanting to lose weight, the more you sleep consistently, the greater chance you have of keeping the fat and pounds off. Create a light routine. You want to get sunshine as soon as you can after waking up. Because your sleep habits are affected by light and darkness. So go to the light when you are awake. And start to turn off the lights a little prior to bed in order to stimulate melatonin and induce your sleepy feeling. Lights out! Eat dinner at a reasonable hour. The later you eat dinner, the harder it is for your body to understand that bedtime is around the corner. It's like giving a child cotton candy and 15 minutes later you tell them to go to bed. Not gonna work! Try to eat between 6 pm and 8 pm. But keep in mind your specific sleep schedule. You can alter that if you need to. Give yourself 2 or more hours prior to going to bed when you've eaten. You don't want what you ate to end up in the storage closet. Sleep for adults needs to be between 7-8 hours a night. And some may need more, but few need less. Don't let your sleep wreck your healthy living. You matter!! So what you do and how much energy you have daily depends on your sleep. Start working on those sleeping habits. Even though it's summer, stick to what serves your mind, body, and spirit. "Train for life.

2720 Keep Your Eyes on What Matters
When you don't always succeed, what keeps you going? Let your body not grow weary of the dreams you have written on your heart. Keep your eyes on what matters. It's easy for us to look side-to-side and see what everyone else is doing. But what are you doing? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT What are you doing for your dreams? How are you setting your schedule to accomplish your goals? Are you running to hide more than staying the course? You set the pace of your day. You get to choose how you show up. You get to play with your excuses or conquer the next step. The K.I.S.S. ~ Keep your eyes on what matters! And in doing so, you also keep your eyes on Jesus. They go hand in hand. "Keep your eyes on Jesus, who both began and finished this race we're in. Study how he did it. Because he never lost sight of where he was headed - that exhilarating finish in and with God - he could put up with anything along the way: cross, shame, whatever. And now he's there, in the place of honor, right alongside God." ~ Hebrews 12:2 Your place of honor in your every day is with God. He desires to walk beside you. However, it's taking your mind, body, and spirit and intertwining them with your heart and God's heart. Keep your eyes on what matters. I've been trying a few new experiments on my body along with the podcast and writing. And one thing I have found is that no matter what, I need to stay true to where God is leading me, even though another way seems more attractive or easier, the way God leads is the only way to follow. Don't create an unnecessary detour because of your jealousy, time constraints, impatient attitude, or unwillingness to take A.I.M. Lean on who created the dream within you. God's got your dreams and you will too so long as you keep your eyes on what matters. CHALLENGE: Where are your eyes closed? "Be present. Be incredible.

2719 The Power of a Secret
With social media like Facebook and Instagram, who has secrets anymore? Sometimes sharing your ideas comes with a cost. Don't be so quick to speak; the power of a secret. When you have a brilliant idea, it's easy to get excited; the desire to share it with everyone is humongous. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT What you think is the next millionaire idea can lead you to explaining more because of others complaining. I don't get why you want to do this. I think you're a little crazy to do this at your age. Don't you think someone else has already tried it? I think you need to go back to the drawing board. Better you than me. I sure wouldn't attempt it. What is your interest in this anyway? Do you really think you have what it takes to succeed? All of these comments can trap you in a rabbit hole that only has mirrors that serve your fear. Do you think if you continually surround yourself with people who question your idea, your brilliance, or your competence that you will get to where you want to go with your idea? Be honest with yourself. Sometimes silence is golden. The K.I.S.S. ~ Silence is golden! Sharing all that you want to do in life can be very rewarding as it gives you the opportunity to share your vision, dreams, and goals for your future. But when too many questions bombard your mind, you begin to double and triple check if this is even feasible. Am I really wanting to put myself out there? "Don't tell others your reasons, show them your results." ~ Sara Blakely Share your idea with very few. You want to tell only the person/people who are going to love you through the process and give you honest feedback so YOU can make the proper decisions. A lot of people want to steal your thunder. That's why they plant seeds of questions in order to undermine your thinking and idea. Plus, they might be a little upset because they didn't think of it first. Less sharing equals more energy. You gain more energy when you don't have to explain yourself or get someone's approval for whatever reason. And who doesn't need more energy to accomplish the goals at hand? The least resistance equals greater results. If you want to stick it to those who said you couldn't do anything or weren't good enough, you want to A.I.M. for results. So when you keep your idea secret, you'll naturally have less resistance. And then, you can better deal with what doesn't work versus who doesn't approve. Silence is golden; the power of a secret. CHALLENGE: What have you been discussing that should now become more of a secret? Or what idea do you have that only a few should know? "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

2718 Leave the Details to God
How much of your day are you trying to orchestrate? When you stumble or succeed, control is not in your hands. Leave the details to God. Nothing can be more frustrating than trying to get everything accomplished by the deadline you have set. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT Most of the time, deadlines are not met (except for a project or two at work). Laundry left in the dryer and not folded; more wrinkles. Dinner at 5:30 pm really means 6:15 pm. Bedtime routine completed on time, but really it's 30 minutes later on average. School work is done before it's due; nope wait until the last minute. Date night kept on the schedule; more like every other month. This is everyday life; beautiful, but complicated. Yet what I find is there is more beauty than complication if we leave the details to God. The K.I.S.S. ~ Leave the details to God! Psalm 37:23-24 NLT 23 The Lord directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. 24 Though they stumble, they will never fall, for the Lord holds them by the hand. God wants to be in your details. And the only person who gets in the way of that is you. I hear God saying .... Walk with Me! Leave the details to Me! It was interesting as we were out walking yesterday; Papa, Grandma, and grandson. And can I just say how independent our grandson wants to be? But as we walked together, he began to realize if he held our hands, there was no worry of a fall and a scraped knee. The same goes with God when He extends His hand. He is there to catch you. Yesterday early morning I was picking blueberries from our trees. They have been delicious this year. I allowed myself to go into God's presence and see the details with heavenly eyes. And I must say that the berries looked even better than what I saw a week ago. The differentiation in colors as they grow. The clump of berries helps support each other as they mature. As the wind blows, the leaves kept the pesky bugs away. If God created blueberry trees to be so intricate, don't you think He desires to be intertwined in the details? God delights in the details. So stop worrying and start praying. Let God in on the details because His plan is always the best plan. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

2717 Spend More Time Leading with Gratitude
Marriages can be full of tension if your actions make you the primary beneficiary. Spend more time leading with gratitude instead of a self-serving attitude. Your marriage matters. And that's why we have to be more direct in this episode. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT It's important to look in the mirror and see if you're adding to or subtracting from the health of your marriage. When life happens, it's easy to drop your spouse and only focus on what you need. Now, this is great for getting your stuff done. But what are the long-term effects on your marriage? Breakdown in communication Less of your spouse and more of your stuff A disjointed feeling of belonging A fragmented love Lack of honor for your spouse And these are just a few issues that can arise. However, you don't have to settle for less than the best. Spend more time leading with gratitude instead of a self-serving attitude. The K.I.S.S. ~ Spend more time leading with gratitude! You have probably heard a million times about the importance of gratitude. Just because you hear it doesn't mean you know how to implement it. Or if it really matters at all. Express gratitude for your spouse's gifts. This can humble a self-serving heart. And unfortunately, marriages need this; and sometimes from both partners. Lead with watchful eyes. This is where you take action before a reaction. What I mean by this is to serve before you are requested. And this comes by being observant and considerate of your spouse. Wish upon a heart. Date your spouse every day by being inquisitive and responsive to his/her ways. This is connected to his/her dreams, passions, and vision for life. Stop fussing so much about your needs. Yes, your needs matter. But that too will come as you spend more time leading with gratitude. CHALLENGE: Where can you be less single and more partnered in your marriage? "Be present. Be incredible.

2716 If There is Anything We Wish to Change
If there is anything we wish to change in our child, we should first examine it and see whether it is not something that could better be changed in ourselves. ~ C. G. Jung Are you holding your child to the standards that were set for you growing up? Or have you lowered or raised those standards for your child? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT Being a parent does not come with a manual. And most are troubled with figuring it out when the kids show up. Talk about hands-on training. And it's so interesting as to what we see in our children and how we see it. Familiar traits, good or bad. Attitudes with not always gratitude; entitlement. Mannerisms that are the same. As you raise your children, you're faced with how you want your children to grow up and who you want them to become. But is that always the right way to view our children? Jung said that instead of focusing on what you want to change in the child, look at yourself. The standard of perfection is real. We want what's best for our kids, but at the same time, we want better kids. So how is this serving our children? If you want to raise a child that will impact the world that he/she touches, you have to first become who you want to be. The K.I.S.S. ~ Become who you want to be! Raising children has its ups and downs and all-arounds. But one thing that will serve you most in parenting with less guilt is to be who God desires you to be. Because you can't change your child. But when your child experiences their mother making changes to better herself, your child is taking notes. Charles Swindoll said, "Each day of our lives, we are making deposits in the memory banks of our children." Do you want your child to see you struggle and gain success, or would you rather your child see only what success looks like? Not a typical thought to cross our mama minds. Yet you and I have to be clear about how we are raising our children. Is it coming from you preparing the path? Or are you preparing the child for the path? Providing your children with everything only gives them a false sense of confidence. Parenting is about being real and still while being present. You don't have to run out and do everything. "What you teach your child today equips your child for tomorrow." ~ Kristianne Wargo So beware of the standard of perfection. You don't always have it right. And more importantly, it's who you are becoming in the process. You can't hide your reflection from your child. Be authentic. Be vulnerable. Be sincere. Be kind. Be joyful. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #ConfessionsOfAnUpsetMama #CreateYourNow #TodaysParent TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

2715 Look for Tiny Treasures
Look for tiny treasures along your way today. God lovingly plants these little pleasures to brighten your day. Doesn't it feel great to be a kid again? Making things less complicated and more enjoyable. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT You need to take a break from beating yourself up. Look on the bright side. There as so many things to be grateful for regardless of your circumstances. I was out watering the plants; it's been quite a scorcher here this week and getting hotter. So the plants needed some extra attention. While sweat began to bead on my back and nose, all of sudden there was a scurry and plop with water splashing me. A frog jumped from where I was watering into the pool. Both of us were startled, him more than me. Soon I found myself giggling after a long day, and still more hours to put in, all the while feeling like a child in the middle of a big mess called life. It was like I was chasing frogs when I was younger, because I couldn't let the frog drown. It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child. ~ Pablo Picasso We can miss what's right in front of us if we keep looking for what's gone wrong. You can't change everything, but you can change how you look at life in the moment. The K.I.S.S. ~ Look for tiny treasures! "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." ~ Matthew 6:21 How much emotional energy are you spending on the stuff that, in the big picture, matters, but in the small of it, it's pointless? Don't become overwhelmed by the emotions and feelings you're simmering. Don't let someone else's stupidity wreck your hope for the day. Don't be the person you complain about. Don't play with fire because you know it burns. Sometimes we just have to put on our big girl panties and face our day with humor and a child-like approach. You get to be who you want to be today. So keep the mess at bay and find another way. Look for tiny treasures. I like to think of these as little blessings or surprises where God reminds us of His presence even in the midst of chaos. Who would have thought a little frog would bring so much joy? But it did. And maybe it's a bird for you or a dust bunny under the chair. Never give in when you can give up to Him. God's got you!
