Life by Design

Imagine you could live the life of your dreams. What would that look like? What would it feel like? Who would you be?

Nothing is unachievable in life when you change your mindset and focus on your goals. Growing up, I relied heavily on the thoughts of others. I never truly learned to trust myself becuse I was so busy worrying about thinking of someone other than myself. I never truly grasped the concept that I was in charge of designing my life. For example, I was a brilliant writer back in the day (and even now, mind you.) It was Fall 1986 and I was on a college tour. I so badly wanted to major in Broadcast Journalism with the dream of becoming the next Jane Pauley. Working in NY and being on TV as a reporter was a dream of mine and it was crushed in an instant. I met a professor on a college tour who said “Don’t major in broadcasting, you will never make any money.” So, when I did enter college, I majored in marketing. Not a bad major, but it was not what I wanted. You see my point. I relied so heavily on the thoughts and opinions of this professor who had no bearing on my life that I gave up my dream.

I realized after years of soul searching that I am in charge of my life and that my thoughts and beliefs craft my life. I have had some amazing careers along the way to where I am now and I am so incredibly grateful for the opportunities that have been presented to me.

Would I change it? No. Am I doing something about it now? Yes. You see, I love helping people and being a cheerleader for others. I was a cheerleader in High School (rah, rah). I want to help you learn the steps to achieve your dreams and goals. Because I have learned how to do it and now it is my time to give back and help others do the same.

With love,
