Enjoy Life More

Strike a Pose - Boost Your Confidence

We all want to feel a lot of confidence. I refer to it often as #shinebrightly. While that is something that I firmly believe is an inside-out process, I also know that we all feel better with some boosts to the outside, as well.

Here’s your Motivation

Proud to be in Week Two of “the pebble” and even more proud to be hosting a dear friend and my coach, Pamela Baez Briscoe. She is a personal entrepreneur and tremendous business coach whose work with me has been intrinsic in the creation of this project.

Dear Julie,

As I watched your story of a woman feeling creatively lost, especially in the wake of 2001, I connected deeply. I simply wasn’t happy. I, too had a husband that loved me. In fact, I had two children I loved deeply. However, I had a deep hungry hole that I could NOT fill.
