RENEW

Ready for a change? Ready to wake up energized? Ready to live a better, healthier life? Ready to be optimistic in the face of adversity? Then, it's time to Renew your life and live on purpose. 

Women are under a tremendous amount of pressure as the backbone of our families and many work full-time jobs. Everywhere I look, I see women in a leadership role and wearing many hats.  We are caregivers, mothers, teachers, nurses, executives, speakers, bakers, decorators, doctors, engineers, bus drivers, receptionists, therapists, managers, business owners and the lists goes on. The exact title or position doesn't matter, because we are all human beings and can appreciate the hard work and compassion that women give on a daily basis. But, what happens when women forget to nurture themselves?

As a busy, professional woman who takes her responsibilities seriously and desperately wants to be/do/have it all, what's missing is the all-important and easily forgotten "Me Time".  When was the last time you took time to do something that you enjoyed? When was the last time you burst out laughing? Danced to your favorite song? Took off early from work just to have some "alone time" before the hustle and bustle of the evening duties began? Took a trip to your favorite spot?

If it's been so long that you cannot remember,  I challenge you to break out of the mold and start changing your life for the better. It's possible to start today! Here are my 3 Be's of Renewal:

• Be intentional
• Be original
• Be transformed

You do not have to wait for the right time, the perfect situation or the best day of the week. The time is now. There will never be a perfect situation and today is a very good day of the week. You can do it, I believe in you!
