Up and running…

Things are up and running.

More figuratively than literally speaking.

I’m taking a long deep breath (remember that “practice breathing” I talked about in the last post?) and sending out a heart felt thank you to my friend Nicole (“Nugget”) who after reading that last blog post so graciously […]

Ready, Set….B.R.E.A.T.H.E

Seriously, this is my mantra right now…

(Mostly the BREATHE part)

Life knows how to get hectic and it knows how to do it like a BOSS.

Blog posts are coming fewer and farther in between and right now non-existent over at TheHDD. 24 hours in the […]

Bricks: building an emotional foundation.

If you know anything about training for a triathlon, you know that “bricking” plays an integral part of that training. For me it’s most important that I work on my transition from bike to run. The swim and run, for me, are the two strongest events. It’s the bike that has me freaked […]

Don’t Hide…

Before I get into this blog post I would just like to emphasis this isn’t directed at anyone in particular. I try not to point fingers unless it’s absolutely necessary (and in the history of alifechangingjourney it’s only happened once). Many people are going to read this and immediately think to themselves:

37 miles to hit a wall…

Normally I peruse the interwebs for some kind of picture to put at the beginning of every post. Don’t ask why cause I don’t know. I guess I feel like it makes the post more readable or breaks up the monotony of thousands of words coming together and sometimes causing your eyes to […]

Oh hey there…(Tommie Copper Giveaway)

Okay so here it is Sunday.

My last post was a week ago.

Not because I haven’t had anything to say

In fact I’ve had quite a bit to say.

Before I get into my rant (but in a good way…sort of), I have a Tommie Copper […]

35-40 hours per week….

This could very well be one of my most favorite blog pictures I’ve used to start the beginning of a blog post in a long time. The last week or so has been a beautiful chaotic mess whirlwind of last minute road trips, crossing the border, sitting in offices waiting for my very […]

And Cut….

And just like that the immigration process is over.

18 long months we’ve been shuffling papers, paying fees and waiting….

And waiting….

And waiting…

Over a year of running to the mailbox hoping for some silver lining and only finding letters of such and such […]

Happily ever after (is a myth)…

As a life coach there is one thing I have to always be to the people I spend time with (and to myself):

Honest.

I think when people look to those that are accomplishing things they’ve only dreamed of or are just starting to dream about, the one thing […]

Where are you going?

The other night, Mimi and I watched “The Perks of Being a Wallflower”. The title alone made me a little “oh this is a chick flick isn’t it?” and since I’m more boy than girl I prefer a movie with a least one good car chase, a few blow em up scenes and […]
