  • What my photo shoot taught me about pricing (it’s not what you think!)

    This week I had an AMAZING photo shoot that’s been several months in the making. I knew when I landed in Nashville, starting over would take up a good portion of my first year here. I also knew that I had projects that still needed to move forward: I’ve been sitting on Creative Freedom for a…

  • Hiding Your Light Under A Bushel? Shine Bright like Fireworks!

    First an exciting announcement: A few weeks ago, I happily celebrated 500,000 views on my YouTube channel. THIS week, I’m celebrating 300 subscribers (click here to subscribe instantly)! Confetti! Fireworks! Hooray! Huzzah! This has been a goal of mine for several years, and I’m beyond thrilled that it’s finally happened. It was a lot more challenging than I…

  • The prize at the top of the waterfall

    This past week, I was fortunate to be able to travel to the Berkshires and visit with great friends. Actually, they’re more like sisters. As one of the inscriptions reads in my book, sometimes friends are as family, and these ladies are it. We met during Amy Oscar’s Soul Caller retreat last year, and we’ve kept…

  • This Salsa dancer is living her dreams – and you can, too!

    Each time I go to my coach’s weekend intensives, I always walk away with lots of ideas that pop like “popcorn” over the coming weeks. Sometimes they come in the most unusual ways. For example, I was back in my hotel room, kind of winding down for the night. After a weekend like this, you can…

  • Start Dreaming, Stop Dying

    2 It started innocently, as revolutions often do. I’ve been working (and re-working) my branding and messaging for the past year, and nothing really seemed to hit the mark. I dove into course after course that offered bits and pieces of what I was hoping would help me craft a clearer direction for me as both…

  • BYOG Day 25 – Believe In You, No Matter What

    For some of us, there comes a time in life when it feels like everyone has given up on you. You might even feel like giving up on yourself. Don’t. As I write this, I’ve just returned from spending the day in the hospital with my oldest son. Suffice it to say he’s on the…

  • BYOG Day 16 – Does the guru reside inside us all?

    By Melanie Maddison [Editor’s note: This is Day 16 of the Be Your Own Guru series. This is Melanie’s first adventure as a guest contributor to ANY blog, and I’m humbles to share her voice today. Melanie brings the perspective of an artist and an intuitive to this conversation. She reminds us that we all…

  • BYOG Day 14 – So You Wanna Be Startin’ Something?

    By Doug Knight [Editor’s Note: This is Day 13 of the Be Your Own Guru series. Today, we roll into more of the “brass tacks” of building a Noble Empire. I met Doug at a local TEDx event, and was blown away not only by his passion for non-profit work, but also his ecclectic music…

  • BYOG Day 13 – We’re All Born with Awesome in Our Veins

    By Tiffany Manley [Editor’s note: Today is day 13 in the Be Your Own Guru series. I met Tiffany as a contestant on Prosperity’s Kitchen. Her mission spoke to me, as I hope it will you. Her commitment to helping young girls take ownership of their dreams is something we can all learn from as…

  • The Convo: Dream Scale Shame

    As a small child, I knew I was called to be a performer. I remember being 2 or 3 years old (before we moved into the house I grew up in) and “performing” for my family. I’d stand up on my wooden toy box, pretending it was a stage, dancing and singing for whoever would…
