One of my energy boosting goals this week is to gain energy from the ocean every day. I start my goals on Sundays and so far, so good!  Nature truly does give me energy and calms me all at the same time, especially the ocean.  The Happiness Project is going so well!  I've given myself 8 green checks out of 8 days and I'm feeling great....focused, yet relaxed!  I've worked out every day this month except on the 1st.  I've not had an ounce of alcohol, even at a birthday happy hour last night!  We've been not eating bw 7 pm and 8 am, going to the beach, portion control, working out, getting 10,000 steps in, doing Duolingo and Spanish verbs everyday, and flossing! Plus my Wednesday goal of blogging and my Thursday goal doing yoga and putting the phones in airplane mode for the whole night.  That one was the hardest, but last week it was nice because we drove up to Coronado to see a movie at night, and usually I'm on my phone answering emails, or doing work stuff, but I just sat and looked out the window at our beautiful town at night, the ships, the lights reflecting off the water, and getting to ride in my husband's dream car with him.  I appreciated it more for sure.  Sometimes I don't think it is fair that we get to witness so much beauty every single day, but I am taking it all in for sure.  We never know where we will end up next year at this time, so I am not wasting one second here in this beautiful place.  Well, I guess that means I need to do a quick walk by the bay before my patients!  Until next time......

Evolve Life Coaching

  Aloha Friends! As summer ends and we transition into fall, it reminds me of how we, too, should always strive to keep growing and evolving. That's why I'm so excited to share some news with you all.   After 25 years as a physical therapist, and with my master's degree in rehabilitation counseling, I’ve decided to take my passion for helping people and start a new adventure in Life Coaching. Following my additional coach training, I’ll be pairing that with my unique background and expertise to help people navigate major life changes, build confidence, and create clear, actionable plans to achieve their personal and professional goals. You might be wondering, "What exactly does a life coach do?" Think of me as a partner who helps you get from where you are today to where you want to be tomorrow. Maybe you want to find a better work-life balance, or need support in tackling a new challenge. Maybe you want to redefine yourself or rediscover that joy and enthusiasm f...

Pier Luck is already a Success!

Image
I've been overly posting on social media about my book release and we had an amazing book launch party and it has me really invigorated to do more! I set my goal pretty high because I want to sell 600 copies of Pier Luck. I haven't told anyone that goal except Dustin, so having it now in writing is a little scary!  It has been a whirlwind of emotions in the last few weeks and I am so thankful for all the support. So far about 70 people have purchased my book. At first I was thinking I just wanted to write this for Dustin and the rest of our family. I didn't really want to "put myself out there" but now I'm glad I did. I'm getting great feedback from readers so far and some people finished it on the first night of reading it! I felt like it was good, but I wasn't sure anyone else would think it was good, so to get that feedback literally made me cry!  My Mom is a little biased, but she is claiming that I have her laughing and crying and reminiscing old ...
