Show Notes: Are you pushing yourself to the edge or staying too comfortable? These past 10 days reminded me why it’s ESSENTIAL to rise above challenges and embrace the unknown. Life won’t follow a perfect plan, but MIRACLES happen when you FOCUS on solutions and keep moving forward. Surround yourself with those who challenge and ELEVATE you—it’s not about knowing the how but finding the who. From new AI strategies to mastering mindset and manifestation, I’ve seen firsthand that investing in yourself is the path to transformation. Don’t let another year pass you by sitting in the same place. The world needs your LIGHT, now is the time to SHINE!

Show Notes: What do you do when things don’t go as planned? When doors close, it’s a sign to LET GO and REIMAGINE what's next. My Mastermind event took an unexpected turn, and instead of clinging to the past, I took the risk to pivot. The result? An EPIC success that surpassed anything I’d done before. It reminded me that the PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE isn’t always the one that ELEVATES us. When negativity shows up, choose GRACE over reaction. We all have times when we stumble, but the key is to learn, give yourself grace, and move forward. Keep shining; the world needs your light.If you’re feeling the call to go further, join my 8-week Elevate Your Influence Bootcamp and transform your life before the new year even begins.
