real talk on a friday

You...Guys....

If this song and video does not make your heart swell and want to be a better person and do the right thing you probably need to reevaluate your life. just sayin'



Not to mention this fabulous band, Ages and Ages, is from Portland, which makes them extra cool.


I am starting to find my groove and get in the flow of my new life with its new schedule of balancing two jobs and a life outside work. With the added extra hours and extra stress, it definitely makes me evaluate what the right things are. 

What is the right thing to do with my free time?
What is the right thing to do for my clients?
What is the right thing to do for my family and friends?
What is the right thing to do for my own health and well being?

Naturally, after the first crazy, busy week at the gym, I got a cold. I think it was my body's way of telling me that if I want to be successful and sustain this new schedule I am going to have to make some changes and that is ok - I just have to figure out what the right changes are going to be. 

One of those right choices for me will be heading home to visit my family for the Holiday weekend. Even though it is a short trip and a long drive I am excited to surround myself with good people and have some much needed family time. 

Hope you enjoy your Holiday weekend :) 

Cheers!

WOOHOO have a great visit at home lady.

You'll figure out the right balance, I'm confident lady! It's hard figuring it out, but once you do it will be wonderful.

Astounding people is fun!

Happy weekend!

I always get a cold after stressful weeks, i like how you put it, " it's your body's way of telling you to change things". Bingo. The right way isnt always the easiest at first but it does feel right in the end.
