In a rut... ...where we lose our excitement to do the things we want to do and our purpose gets lost among the day to day demands of life. Recently. I was in this mind space- all up in my head and overall, not feeling…
How to Deal With Haters!If you have a dream, don't be surprised if other people don't fully support or embrace it. Skepticism and doubt are common feelings and in fact, they keep other people from going after their own dreams. One of my favorite stories of all time is of a man named Walt Disney. I'm sure you've heard…
SQUAD GOALS! Establishing True FriendshipsThe term "squad goals," made so famous by Taylor Swift, is now the title of a new sitcom in the works for 20-somethings. Ohhhhhh Hollywood! We are not only pressured to look a certain way individually, but now many of us are striving to mold our group of friends to fit the cool, trendy look…
4 Tips for A Fun, Budget Friendly HalloweenI've never been a huge fan of Halloween, which is bizarre because I have a pretty creative, "out there" personality. But I guess the task of coming up with a costume idea, actually putting it together and splurging for one night feels daunting to me. (And p.s. I hate scary movies!!) In years past, I've…
How to Not Care What People ThinkJust a few years ago, I could barely form my own opinion in public, never mind walk around the city in a pink robe. Sure, this particular act was solely for filming purposes- to exaggerate the point I'm trying to make- but my ability and eagerness to put myself out there over and over again…
How to Keep a JournalDid you know that the average person has between 50,000 and 70,000 thoughts per day!? Our poor minds are in constant overdrive and they deserve a break once and a while. Journaling can be an effective way to organize your ideas, sketch your dream future, vent about that asshole who never called you back or…
The Book That Changed My LifeYesterday marked my 4-year anniversary in LA! Wow. It was right around this time 4 years ago that I was looking through a magazine when I came across a woman's testimonial on the book I'm talking about in today's video. She claimed that it had a significant impact on her life. (Cue to me: a…
How to Be Awesome!First, I would like to take a moment of silence for my camera lens that fell into the pool while filming. RIP. You were a great starter lens to the YouTube family. So I'm somewhat in love with the activity of listing 25 things that make us so awesome. It's not everyday that we remind…
How to Manage Your Multi-Passionate/ Multi-Talented Self!I love the self-help world, but I also love home decorating, filmmaking and red wine. I have a creative eye, but I also have a knack for presenting. Having a plethora of interests and talents can make choosing a career path difficult. I want to help you embrace your gifts instead of feeling overwhelmed by…
How to Be More Positive!I've always considered myself an optimistic person and for a while I just assumed it was a positive personality trait- magically appointed to me at birth. Now I do believe that someone "up there" sprinkled an extra dose of optimism into my DNA, so that I could help other people tap into their own. Because,…
How to Love Your Quarter Life CrisisAfter 48 hours of labor, I finally gave birth to my second video... I made every single, possible mistake known to man while filming this. I did not get enough sleep the night before...major brain fuzz. I forgot to turn the microphone on...3 times. Shooting at two very different times of the day is a…
Welcome to My New Channel!So for about a year now, I've used my blog as a way to express my thoughts & opinions and share helpful tips. But, I have a confession to make... I never really enjoyed blogging. I didn't hate it, but it definitely didn't get me jumping out of the bed in the morning. (I actually…
