There Is Hope

It has been a great campaign this year in our fight to end domestic violence. One death is too many. I will continue to educate and empower the public about domestic violence.

International Day of the Girl 2019

Girls are breaking boundaries and barriers posed by stereotypes and exclusion, including those directed at children with disabilities and those living in marginalized communities. As entrepreneurs, innovators and initiators of global movements, girls are creating a world that is relevant for them and future generations.

The Platform for Action specifically calls on the global community to: 

1. Eliminate all forms of discrimination against girls.  
2. Eliminate negative cultural attitudes and practices against girls.  
3. Promote and protect the rights of girls and increase awareness of their needs and potential.  
4. Eliminate discrimination against girls in education, skills development and training.  
5. Eliminate discrimination against girls in health and nutrition.  
6. Eliminate the economic exploitation of child labour and protect young girls at work.  
7. Eradicate violence against girls.  
8. Promote girls’ awareness of and participation in social, economic and political life.  
9. Strengthen the role of the family in improving the status of girls.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month

Awareness + Action = Social Change

My #1 Thing is to continue to educate and empower about Domestic Violence.

Today, I want to empower you about the Power of Healing. Healing is defined as to make or become healthy or whole again; to restore to original purity in mind, body, and soul. 

Choose to be healed and be made whole again - in body, mind and soul. Don't be ashamed, but share your story with others who care.  

Self Care Is Vital

Exhausted, uninspired, or unwell? Time for self-care treatment!!!!

Self-care is any activity that we do deliberately in order to take care of our mental, emotional, and physical health. 

I am sharing with you the 12 ways to take better care of yourself from Tchiki Davis, Ph.D., Psychology Today: 

1. Make sleep part of your self-care routine. 
2. Take care of yourself by taking care of your gut. 
3. Exercise daily as part of your self-care routine. 
4. Eat right for self-care. 
5. Say no to others, and say yes to your self-care. 
6. Take a self-care trip. 
7. Take a self-care break by getting outside. 
8. Let a pet help you with your self-care.  
9. Take care of yourself by getting organized. 
10. Cook at home to care for yourself.
11. Read a book on self-care for self-care.
12. Schedule your self-care time, and guard that time with everything you have. 

If Not Now ... Then When????

“The graveyard is the richest place on earth, because it is here that you will find all the hopes and dreams that were never fulfilled, the books that were never written, the songs that were never sung, the inventions that were never shared, the cures that were never discovered, all because someone was too afraid to take that first step, keep with the problem, or determined to carry out their dream.”   Les Brown

The time is NOW!! Tomorrow is not promised. Realized that vision, goal, or dream. 

2019 Is Still Happening - Get Focused!

2019 is NOT over!!!!!! Get focused!!!

I encourage you to create a vision board! This will help you get back on track and stay focused on your goals and dreams; whether short-term or long-term.

A vision board helps you: 

• Identify your vision and give it clarity.
• Reinforce your daily affirmations.
• Keep your attention on your intentions.
