Are you too busy for living your life? Though this may sound like blame, that’s not the intent, are you living a Martha lifestyle? And hating it? Or wishing for help (did you ask)? Since it’s that ‘time of year…’ the holidays can become somewhat overwhelming. My advice is that if the ugly head of […]
For ‘Part 2’ I’m going to set out a list of questions/statements and then try and speak to each. I think I would argue that the first step in ‘examine’ is identifying. All of who you are. The good. The not so good. The definite bad. We all have these in our DNA and definitely
