 I talk to many people quite often who share with me their feelings about the choices they made in their past.  Forgiving ourselves is often times one of the most difficult things we face but yet it is so important so we can move forward in our lives.  Allowing ourselves forgiveness allows us self-growth and development. 

As a social worker and coach, I'd like to share a few steps this week with you that can help you begin to forgive yourself from actions you may have made in the past.  It's time to move forward in a more healthy way.

Coaching Tips in Leadership and Professional Development #5 - Show Your Best Self in Online Professionalism
Picture
Practicing professionalism online is no different than if you were at the office down the road from you.  Professionalism is professionalism just like drunk is drunk or crying is crying.  It is what it is.  It’s difficult at times to see the discussions that take place and then hear a person later on question why they lost support.  As a leadership coach who shares the importance in professional development, I wanted to remind those reading of these helpful tips to maintain in the online world as well as in your community at home: ....read more

Weight Loss and Feeling Young - The Benefits of Acai!

Picture
Thank you to one of our guest writers, Meg of Just a Little Nutty for working with Dedicated 2 Life and Delta Labs this past month on this months featured product and company for review!

As a wife, mother and entrepreneur, I have learned first hand how precious health and wellness is. We don’t have time to get sick, be under the weather or just not performing at our best. I was thrilled for the opportunity to try two ALL NATURAL dietary supplements from Delta Labs.  

I knew Acai is an immune supporting super food but never really thought about it until I mentioned that I was...read more

A Motivating Mothers Wish from Dedicated 2 Life - Shared to You with Love

Picture
It's Mothers Day as I write this and as I reflect on a few things, I wanted to share the awesome and amazing feeling that comes behind strong and healthy relationships....whether it be as a mother or not!I just got off the phone with my oldest son who is moving away today to a very rural area.  It may be awhile before I get to talk to him again as there is no cell service where he is moving.  As I said, it is very rural!  I love him and will trust in my heart that this transition will help him reach the goals he is looking for.  I have always known my oldest son to be the outdoors kind of guy.  I pray that this education will lead him to owning that charter boat business he wants one day. ...read more

Dealing with the pain and hurt during a divorce is a struggle.  Not only is a person left going through a life transformation as they learn to live a new way of life, but they literally go through the process of grief as if one has lost someone.  Know why? They have!

Many times individuals find themselves going through depression.  Some go through a life crisis and journey in having to re-find themselves.  I remember my divorce all to well.  I still kick myself every so often on my..read more

"Today I am writing about a spiritual message that sometimes we forget about.  I hope you find it useful.  Blessings to you all everyone."       ~Irish~

Tips in Understanding What Does and Doesn't Help a Binge Eater! - Dedicated  2 Life's Wellness Topic #5

Picture
Binge Eating!  It's more common than you think.  Especially in today's world where so much pressure is placed on women and children through our media.  Some of you know this about me and if you do not, let me share.  I have struggled with a Binge Eating Disorder most of my life.  I'm grateful that I can openly discuss it today and work patiently in managing my disorder. 

Many people make an assumption that binge eating is just where someone sits and eats massive amounts of food without purging the way a bulimic might do.  It actually is quite a bit different than this.  A binge eater might only binge 2, 3 or maybe 4 times a week....read more

Are You Going to Let Bitterness Own You?  Dedicated 2 Life's Inspiring Thoughts #2
Picture
It's happened to all of us, just some won't admit to it.  We have all one time or another fallen or slid into a Teflon pan of sticky, marinated syrup-like bitterness.  The difference is some of us get out of it and some of us spend our lives being controlled by this nasty and poisonous recipe for disaster.  It's not easy to stay motivated and inspired.  It sometimes can feel a bit more challenging to keep upbeat rather than let all the "nasty" take over our lives.  The key is to not allow it to control us and we control "IT"!

See the message in the photo to the right on this page - it speaks volumes!  What the World Needs Now, is Love Sweet Love!  Imagine if we...read more

It’s almost a given that one day or another you will be put in a situation where you have a crisis to respond to.  What are you going to do?  How are you going to handle the situation?  Panic is not the best answer.  Although we honestly would all like to steer clear from these situations, we never know when they will occur. 

Moms and Dads, if you are reading this; please get trained in CPR and First Aid.  There is nothing more frightening that having your child in need of a crisis response and you feeling helpless.  If you don’t want to do it alone, then get those moms or dads at the....read more
