W.O.W. Wednesday...The bride of Amazement!

“When it's over, I want to say: all my life
I was a bride married to amazement.
I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms. 

When it is over, I don't want to wonder
if I have made of my life something particular, and real.
I don't want to find myself sighing and frightened,
or full of argument. 

I don't want to end up simply having visited this world.”
― Mary Oliver
Happy Wednesday beautiful hearts!  As I soak in these words by Mary Oliver I can't help but feel the invitation to live!  Each day as the morning greets us, we have the choice to animate our higher selves.  To show up in realms of amazement and wonder.  To cultivate a willingness to be seen.  To capture the opportunities that lay before us.  To marinate our hearts in the unlimited capacities of love.  To stand with life and say, "YES, I am ready for this wild ride!"  

This wild ride is full of twists and turns.  Crests of fears, and valleys of calm.  We are the authors of the stories, the dreamers of the dreams, the lovers of our lives.  Today I invite you to tap into your amazement.  Feel the wonder.  Embrace the uncertainty.  Don't look back over your life with the thought.... "I don't want to end up simply having visited this world."  It's never to late to be the bride of amazement.  

May You Sweetly Seek:)

Talking About it Tuesday...Loving Ourselves

"Let us LOVE ourselves so fiercely, that when others see us
​they know exactly how it should be done."
~Rudy Francisco

As I sat listening to my teacher at a recent training, her words continue to echo off of my heart.  "The way you love yourself sets the tone for every other relationship you have in the world.  If you are judging yourself, you are often judging others.  If you are unkind to yourself, you are often unkind to others.  If you are angry with yourself, you are often angry with others.  If you don't love yourself, how do you expect others to love you?"  

Her words have stayed with me and continue to animate my interactions.  What if we  LOVE ourselves so fiercely that when others see us, they know it can be done?  But before we move into the realm of the other, what if WE LOVED ourselves so fiercely?  How would the landscape of our lives change?  

What if instead of judging our choices, we stepped up into a higher realm and trusted the unfoldment of our path?  What if instead of getting angry with another, we owned our shit?  When I am triggered by another person, that is where my work lies.  No one else can make me feel a particular way, my reaction is always my choice.  Big ideas to process, but I invite you to sit with them.  I too am sitting with them and making them a part of my daily life.  Compassion.  Kindness.  Love.  If we can't foster these traits for ourselves, how can we extend these energies to the world?  

I desire to love.  I desire to grow.  I desire to be awake and aware.  I desire to be a light on this planet.  I desire to share magic with the world.  

I dare you to go and LOVE yourself.  Love yourself so much that you honor your journey.  Love yourself through the trials and tribulations.  Love yourself through the bullshit story you told yourself that you somehow aren't enough.  Love yourself through the grief of loosing those you love.  Love yourself right back to life.  If you don't, who will?

May You Sweetly Seek:)

Thankful Thursday...Following our passions

Happy Thursday beautiful hearts!  The other day I was traveling and had the occasion to sit next to a successful businessman and overall highly passionate individual.  As he shared his life experiences and family tales, I couldn't help but wonder about the amazing nuggets of success he had encountered along the way.  He shared that there had been lean times, in both relationship and wealth.  There had also been prosperous times and wild adventures.  But through it all, the overarching theme seemed to be that he followed his passions.  

He decided after receiving his PhD. that he wanted to be his own boss, and to hit the mile markers of his life on his own terms.  His tenacity carried him through the start up of a company and eventually the sale of his business.  He is now staying on for a few years to help through the transitionary period, but in the meantime he and his wife started a winery.  

As we were getting off the plane, I asked his what advice he might share, to which he offered a resounding cry, "Always follow your passions!"

As I peer around my life currently, I am following my passions.  I am saying YES to opportunities that are presenting themselves.  I am stepping into the creative flow of the Universe.  I am engaged in my personal spiritual work.  I am loving life and it seems to be loving me back.  

What passions do you have tucked into your heart?   How would you like to live them to life?  What if you realized that the Universe wants you to succeed...how would that change the trajectory of your life?  

Wishing you all a blessed and amazing day!

“I know what it's like. I've seen it played out a zillion times. You're waiting for that magical day when someone makes the connection and recognizes who you really are. Maybe they'll first catch the sparkle in your eye. Or perhaps they'll marvel at your insights and the depth of your spirit. Someone who will help you connect the dots, believe in yourself, and make sense of it all. Someone who will understand you, approve of you, and unhesitatingly give you a leg up so that life can pluck your ready, ripened self from the branch of magnificence. Well, I'm here to tell you, your wait is over. That someone, is you.”

Happy Thursday beautiful hearts!  Yesterday I had the wonderful honor of being on the WFMJ midday show with local anchor Jennifer Brindisi.  You can click this link to view the video.  Ode to Love made it's debut on St. Valentine's Day.  What a way to celebrate love!

I can't even begin to describe how thankful, grateful, overcome with happiness, and brimming with love I feel!  The support and encouragement has been amazing!  I just want to take this space to say how THANKFUL I AM FOR YOU!!!  This dream would not be unfolding without the support of my family, friends, and amazing community!  

If you have a dream in your heart, find people that believe in you.  Find communities that cheer you on and want you to be successful.  Believe in yourself and trust that if a dream animates itself in your life, then you can accomplish it!  You are capable.  You are worthy.  You are love....now go put your love in action!

Thank you a zillion times over.  I'm so excited to see how Ode to Love and Cool Creative Press are going to take off on this planet.  

Cheers to your support and love!  Feel free to share in the comments section what you are dreaming up in your own life.  

May You Sweetly Seek:)

“i love myself.'

the 
quietest.
simplest. 
most
powerful.
revolution. 
ever.” 
― Nayyirah Waheed
Happy Valentine's Day my friends!  As we celebrate this calendar date of love, may we live the words of Nayyirah Waheed in our everyday lives.  May we embody this revolution in our entire beings.  When was the last time you really 'loved yourself?'

In the busyness of life, it becomes imperative to offer ourselves a quiet yet roaring space to fully occupy the landscape of our hearts.  

On this Valentine's Day, may you celebrate all the love in your life, beginning with the love you have for your beautiful unique heart!

May You Sweetly Seek:)

Talking About it Tuesday...SMARTS

Happy Tuesday beautiful hearts!  A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to sit down with the executive director of SMARTS, Becky Keck and learned a whole lot about this amazing organization.  Ms. Keck was kind enough to purchase 10 copies of Ode to Love for their storefront.  Talk about feeling supported from a creative and visionary organization. I thought it imperative to give this Arts School a shoutout!  We need more positive news about local individuals doing amazing things!  Cheers to this school and all of its initiatives!  

SMARTS is a community-based art school which seeks to motivate students to succeed in all areas of life by teaching them the discipline and focus that creating art takes. SMARTS offers classes in visual arts, music, dance, theater, and creative writing. Keep an eye on our website and FB to see SMARTS unfold in our community as we start programming in our new facility in the Ohio One Building in historic downtown Youngstown.

SMARTS community art school provides access and early training in the arts for our region's PreK-12 youth with a focus on underserved populations. SMARTS engages public and private organizations, schools, and artists in cooperative projects designed to enrich our community, promote student achievement, inspire self-discovery, and impact cultural and academic literacy through fine and performing arts.

Thankful Thursday...Morning Motivation

2/8/2018

0 Comments

 
Happy Thursday beautiful hearts! I stumbled across this Inspiration the other day and just had to add it to my favorites list!

Its so important to harness the energy of our day! When we wake up exclaiming we are already tired, already in a space of “not enough,” we signal to our life force we’re in a deficit. What if instead we wake up exclaiming our intentions, our gratitude, our knowingness for our days?

It really is up to us! We are the control tower. We are sending signals of prosperity or signals of lack all the time! You decide...how do you want to wake up?!

May You Sweetly Seek,
In Gratitude,
