Owning Our Story Quote by Brené Brown: "Owning o Owning Our Story 

Quote by Brené Brown: "Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it." 

This quote greatly resonates with me. I'm 63 years old. I spent most of my life running from my story. It wasn't until my 50's that I started to face my story head-on and push through to the other side. I sought personal therapy, joined a women's group, and read numerous personal development books. My journey has led me to become a Certified Life Coach and develop my Women Rising Above Coaching Services to inspire and empower women who want to gain clarity, take action, and make progress towards the goals they want to achieve. To be stronger and more confident. To thrive, not just survive.

What is Procrastination? Procrastination: The act What is Procrastination?

Procrastination: The act of delaying or avoiding tasks. It's when you know you should begin, yet find yourself choosing another activity instead. People usually procrastinate if the task seems overwhelming, unclear, emotionally uncomfortable, or dull. It's less about laziness and more about our natural tendency to avoid discomfort.

Common types of procrastination:
🔸The Perfectionist – waits for the “right time” or perfect plan
🔸The Overwhelmed Starter – doesn’t know where to begin
🔸The Avoider – puts off tasks tied to fear or self-doubt
🔸The Energy Mismatch – tries to do hard things when tired/drained

Do you recognize yourself in one of these? Comment below ⬇️

The Power of Positive Thinking Mindset and persev The Power of Positive Thinking

Mindset and perseverance are the foundation for success. Success doesn’t come from luck; it comes from persistence, even when things are difficult or discouraging. Don’t let criticism, fear, setbacks, or other people’s opinions stop you from pursuing your goals. Intentionally chose an optimistic, solution-focused mindset instead of dwelling on failure or negativity. Treat problems as hurdles to overcome, not reasons to quit.

Sharing a quote from Lillian Vernon about success. Lillian was a pioneering American businesswoman, entrepreneur, and philanthropist. She is best known for founding the Lillian Vernon Corporation in 1951 from her Mount Vernon, New York, apartment, which evolved into a successful mail-order catalogue business offering household goods, children's items, and fashion accessories.

Cherish the Moment 🌿 Treat each moment as special Cherish the Moment 🌿

Treat each moment as special. Notice what is happening now and appreciate it before it becomes a memory. Pay attention to what is in front of you. Life moves quickly. Moments don't repeat. Cherish their temporary existence. Slow down and see the value. Recognize the simple things—a walk, the sun, the birds, the trees, your beating heart. Hug your loved ones. Live in the moment. Cherish the moment.

The Importance of Self-Care Taking care of yourse The Importance of Self-Care

Taking care of yourself is essential for maintaining good health. When you take care of your mind and body, you can think clearly, create intentionally, connect meaningfully, and handle stress without burning out.

Mental and physical health are closely linked, so addressing both leads to better overall well-being. Supporting mental health encourages physical activity and healthy habits, while staying active improves mood, reduces anxiety and depression, and boosts cognitive function. Integrating both aspects results in improved health outcomes and quality of life.
