Life is About to Get Fun Again

Life is About to Get Fun Again
Too many of us work our way through life without taking time out for daily breaks, weekly fun, and once-in-a-lifetime adventures.
If your goal is to live well, then adding everyday fun, hobbies, unique interests, weekend getaways, and major vacations will guarantee a memorable and fulfilling life.

I want to inspire YOU to add more fun to your life. How? Here’s what the Oola formula says about adding Fun:

Don’t put it off. What would you do all day long if you had all the time and money in the world? Decide what “fun” means to you, then start investigating ways to introduce more of it into your life. Make the process of discovery fun, too.

Plan daily, annual and once-in-a lifetime fun. Find small ways to have fun every day. Then plan something bigger once a year. And for true life-changing fun, write your “bucket list” of once-in-a-lifetime experiences you want to enjoy. Work on making those happen – whether it’s saving the money, connecting with the right people, training for it, or something else.

Unplug completely. When you’re having fun, don’t ruin it by thinking about the 20 other things you should be doing right now. Fun is an important task, too.

So today, challenge yourself to add more fun to your life. Pull out your calendar and pencil in a weekend getaway or other activity. Investigate a new hobby you’ve been wanting to pursue. Find a local festival, show, concert, or sports event that you and your friends can go to. Lead the way for your family in adding more fun to your lives.

21 Days - 7 Steps Forward

If you could change your life over the next 21 days in ways that would positively impact all your tomorrows, would you set aside the time this month to do it? 

For the next three weeks, I’m issuing an invitation, a helping hand—a challenge. Join me as I guide you through all 7 major life areas, asking you to make small, but breakthrough changes in each area.

You might decide to:

• Investigate a new job, career or business opportunity

• Clear out the junk food and sugar from your kitchen

• Start taking walks after dinner with your spouse

Whatever dreams you have for your life, for the next three weeks, I’d like to challenge you to choose, then tackle, one thing in each area that you know you must accomplish to arrive at where you want to be.

To start off the 21-Day Challenge, let’s focus on a major stressor for most people: their finances. What could you do tonight after work to start making a major breakthrough in tackling your debt, cutting your expenses, saving for a major purchase, or otherwise lowering your financial stress?

Could you spend an hour to:

• List all your debts, then pay off the smallest one

• Cancel a subscription, meal kit, or service you rarely use

• Research companies and start an investment account

• Identify an unused item and post it for sale online

The concept of a breakthrough goal is something I learned from The Oola Guys – Dr. Dave Braun and Dr. Troy Amdahl, authors of Oola: Find Balance in an Unbalanced World. With so many stress points in life, they say, our lives can get out of balance. But narrowing our focus to smaller goals that are easy to achieve, we can start changing our lives for the better (often permanently). 

Are you up for that kind of life change this month? Watch for my posts, take action every day, and see what happens!



How I started to Live Differently

 
I created this practice after experiencing firsthand how emotional patterns can keep us stuck - even when we "know better."

I saw so many people carrying invisible burdens—stress, emotional pain, limiting beliefs, grief, burnout, and patterns that kept them feeling stuck. I watched people do everything they were "supposed" to do while still feeling disconnected from themselves, overwhelmed, or unable to create lasting change. I knew there had to be a more compassionate and holistic approach to healing.

I created this practice to offer a space where healing is not about fixing yourself—it’s about reconnecting with who you truly are beneath the layers of stress, survival patterns, fear, and programing. I believe each person already holds incredible wisdom and healing capacity within them. Sometimes we simply need support, guidance, and the right tools to help uncover it.

My belief about healing is that you are not broken. Healing is not a straight line, and it does not happen by forcing or striving. It happens when we create space to listen—to our bodies, our emotions, our beliefs, and the deeper messages beneath them. Healing invites us to approach ourselves with curiosity, compassion, and honesty.

My approach is both intuitive and practical because lasting transformation requires both. I blend Reiki, Aroma Freedom Technique, and practical coaching to support healing on multiple levels—mind, body, emotions, and energy. Through Reiki, I help create space for restoration, balance, and energetic alignment. Through Aroma Freedom Technique, we gently uncover and release limiting beliefs and emotional blocks that may be keeping you stuck. And through practical coaching, we turn awareness into meaningful action and real-life change.

I trust intuition as an important part of the healing process. I listen deeply—not only to what is spoken but also to the patterns and themes that may be asking for attention. At the same time, I believe insight becomes most powerful when paired with grounded, practical steps that help you integrate healing into your everyday life.

My role is not to tell you who to become. My role is to walk beside you as you rediscover your own inner wisdom, healing capacity, and path forward. Together, we create a process that feels supportive, empowering, and aligned with who you are.

I would be honored to be part of your healing journey.
