Make Sure You Do this Part Too
Posted by: | Comments
Anyone else feeling like time is flying by?
The world is shifting and expanding rapidly. Now more than ever before people around the world are questioning the status quo and rejecting it.
This excites me to no end! Defy all the boxes people!!!!!! Go-Go-Go!!
But-make sure you do this part too……
When you reject something and are crying out for change, you have to remember to send out some good vibes indicting what you want instead. Spend time everyday amplifying the energy of all the juicy details of your desire. Be specific about what that change looks like in your life. Doing this helps to focus your intention and energy. The clearer you are the easier it is for the Universe to send it your way.
Playing Amplification Friday also is a helpful tool in your re-creation process. Taking a few minutes to take note of what you appreciate from your week and to bask in the juicy good feelings of it sends a strong signal to the Universe saying- “More of this please!”
Here are my appreciations from this week……

sassy new hair cut
My sassy new hair cut. It’s short, easy, colorful and fun! What more can I say!
Friends!!!! I spent an awesome “Big Chill” style weekend out in the country and it rocked! It was great to just hang out and be with a group of cool people. We went out to breakfast, apple picking, took a long nature walk, and spent the afternoon talking and baking. We played silly word games and talked about Occupy Wall Street. It was wonderful!!!
New crafty skills! I got to spend some time spinning wool with my friend Kim. I really enjoy the simplicity of it, and the way it keeps my hands occupied while I socialize. Kim and I agree- if things fall apart we will have a helpful skill to offer our community.
How NOT Flying Your Freak Flag is Losing You Money- This new class that I’m offering is tickling my fancy! I’ve been totally in the creative flow and it has been very easy to put it all together. I love talking about this material and helping people fly their freak flag! It would be even better if you clicked the link and joined me.
Occupy Boston/Wall Street/ your town……. People taking a peaceful stand for change kicks ass! It’s got people talking, exploring, and thinking about how they want things to be. Change it good!!!!! It makes my box defying heart giggle with delight.

Appreciating my Appreciations
Posted by: | CommentsI love Amplification Friday!
It feels so good to take a few minutes and to sit and reflect on all the awesomeness of my week and to bask in the juicy good feelings that come with it.
I admit that I sometimes need the reminder to do it because I get so caught up in my ever expanding journey, and what I still want to create, that I forget to appreciate all that is already Kick-Ass in my life.
Does that happen to you too?
Here are a few of my appreciations for the week.
I appreciate this amazing city that I live in. Boston rocks! It is beautiful, and full of awesome things to do.
I appreciate warm sunny days and sitting out on my back porch working. It’s awesome to have the freedom to do that!
I appreciate the opportunity to see the Chihuly exhibit for free at the MFA. It was so beautiful to see the way he manipulates glass beyond what anyone else has done, and incorporates natural themes into his work. My sweetie and I had a blast. We were in divine timing and seemed to show up at the right places at the right time to avoid getting caught up in the ridiculously long lines to get into the museum and the exhibit. It was wonderful.
I appreciate the helpful people that I work with and all the support I’m given as I put together my next offering which will be focused on helping you break free from your pre-packaged life to discover your purpose and what you need to thrive. I’m really excited about this new project and the way it is unfolding. It feels amazing to have such clarity and a plan of action to roll it all out.It feels wonderful to be supported in this work and to gift myself with the help that I need to get it done.
I think I’ll stop here.

What Do You Want More Of?
Posted by: | CommentsCome play Amplification Friday!
The most powerful way to create change and to bring more Kick-Ass & JUICY GOODNESS into your life is to practice appreciation.
When you appreciate anything, you are sending a strong signal to the Universe saying I want more of this please and it feels really good to pay attention to the things you like.
Appreciation is a simple thing, but it tends to get lost in our busy day…or gets pushed out the way by a tendency to focus on what we do not like and what is not working.
So, I have created Amplification Friday to encourage you to take a moment out of your day and think about all the yummy, sweet moments from your week.
It can be anything that you want more of…..it does not have to be something nice and sweet…it can be down right dirty…as long at it feels good to you and you want more of it in your life.
It’s really cool to appreciate something about yourself since most people don’t do enough of that.
I would certainly suggest appreciating the people in your life and all the things that you are wanting more of in the future. The more you focus on the stuff that pleases you…the more you will get to experience pleasure.
Once you identify the things you are appreciating, take few moments to really bask in the good feelings that they bring. By doing this you are amplifying the energy of them and sending a strong signal out into the Universe say “more of this Please!”
Writing them down for the world to see adds a bit of extra power to them. ( and it is also fun for everyone to see what other folks are writing…creates a big swirl of juicy goodness for everyone.)
Here is what I’m appreciating from my week…..
My awesome amazing talented friends who are constantly an inspiration to me. They are so talanted and freely share their gifts with the world. It is so amazing to be part of this community.
I appreciate the sweetness between me and my amazing lover-man right now. He makes me laugh and smile so much. Besides the fact that he is really fun and sexy! I deeply enjoy our relationship.
I appreciate the freedom that I have in my life to do exactly what I feel inspired to do. This week I’ve been processing so stuff and needed extra time for myself and was able to create that space without any problems. I am so lovingly provided for by the Universe.
So tell me……What do you Appreciate from this past week? Share your appreciations in the comments down below
I encourage you to share this with your friends!

Doing so adds a big boost to your Kick-Ass Creation process. By basking in your good feelings you are amplifying that energy and sending a powerful message to the Universe that says-MORE OF THIS PLEASE!

Would you care to join me in a bit of basking?
I invite you to sit back and reflect on your week. Think about everything that you appreciated in it.
Include all the different aspects in your life….people, places, things and your job.
Don’t forget to find something to appreciate about yourself too!

I love the ability that I have to get up and focus my attention on what excites me and interests me for the day. I get to follow my bliss and it rocks! I’m also in deep appreciation for the amazing people in my life. I am surrounded by the most creative, interesting, caring people who pursue their passions and love to have a good time!
