Memories of childhood take me back to a time where shame and sadness would pour out of me—drenched in tears I would sit on my Papi’s lap. His soothing words, “Que te pasa hijita?” (What’s wrong little one?) would draw out an even deeper level of grief and sorrow. Oh, the drama of it all!…
Yesterday I searched for a meme that would represent my state of mind and heart. I wanted to hide out—separate myself from the world—to not see or be seen—just so disappointed in what is happening in our nation, cities, in our families ,and in myself. In my mind I pictured an ostrich with his head…
Lord I have such an independent spirit. How often I forget that You are the one that leads. I hear your still small voice whisper (1 Kings 19:11-13) instructions and I take off in obedience continually listening for further direction. But somewhere along the path… off I go—in my own strength—pride takes me off course. Admittedly,…

New beginnings—an opportunity for adventure, challenge, personal growth, and so much more. I’m a new beginnings junkie. Hooked on the excitement of the unknown, I strive to trust God for my very next step, confident that He leads the way and has my back. As a personal coach, I get to partner with those on…
I am both challenged and encouraged about the dreams—the goals God has placed in my life! What about you? What are you most excited about? I’m full of questions for you! Here’s a good one: Do you want to know the secret to living a longer healthier life? I have the answer! Live! Live life…
We’ve all been there. That moment in time when you realize that the thing you want to do, that you can do, you just aren’t getting it done. What keeps us from it? Most of us can come up with several reasons and in fact, we spend quite a bit of time justifying why we…
