"Simple abundance is not something we acquire. It is something we tune into." Dr. Wayne Dyer has a very good point. Abundance, the plentifulness of the good things in life. You have bank accounts, and not just the money kind. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact  It's the successes, the emotions, your lifestyle, your relationships, your offspring, your career, your schooling. Abundance isn't acquired. We have to tap into it. Can a poor person have abundance? The answer is a 100% confident YES!!! "Whatever we are waiting for - peace of mind, contentment, grace, the inner awareness of simple abundance - It will surely come to us, but only when we are ready to receive it with an open and grateful heart." ~ Sarah Ban Breathnach Simple abundance! I have a love-hate relationship with technology. And yesterday was a not so good day. I could have been very easily upset at the employees of the company. But it wasn't the

What happens when you are pulled in all directions with the weight of the world on your shoulders? You cling tightly to a divided heart hoping to survive. But there's so much more than survival. You don't need to be one who is treading water all the days of your life. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact  However, that's exactly what happens with a divided heart. You live your days in fragments and broken pieces with gaping holes of hurt, sorrow, and unrest. You're overloaded and overwhelmed. Your daily posture start sunken and end drunken with scars and self-inflicted wounds. And then you question, "Is this all life has to offer me?" "With a divided heart, you have divided priorities." Who and what gets your attention. It's self-strangulation. I ask you, "Have you checked-in with your heart lately?" Characteristics of a divided heart: Emotionally unstable Wandering Selfish Inconsistent Malnourished Fearful

What are you trying to change? How big are your dreams? You want impact; it starts with BOLD HOPE! Motivation can come and go. When hope fades, your life's breath becomes shallow. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact  One needs to grab hold on the hope that sustains life, your every breath! I think back to when I was first married during the flood of 1993. And the wedding was to be outdoors. With no Plan B, what was I to do? We couldn't change the venue. However, I could not cancel either.  "Take it down!", I boldly spoke.  "So, then, we have such a hope, we act with great boldness." ~ 2 Corinthians 3:12 The battle was going to be fought and victory declared how God saw it. What battle are you fighting that needs BOLD HOPE? The battle of writing your book. The battle of starting your business. The battle of quitting the corporate job and stay home. The battle of healing your marriage. What battle do you need

Have you ever had that conversation that's intense and gets heated? You become at war with words. We need to learn how to have truth spoken in love. And it's especially essential with children, our family and the world we touch. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact  This is how the conversation began... My children were coming home and asking how to handle their chats they were having with their friends. Truth spoken in love. You see, today, we welcome in our 45th President of the United States, Mr. Donald J. Trump and the first family, and the Vice President, Mr. Mike Pence and his family. This is NOT political, but it's how our conversation began on how we speak to each other. Is there a right or a wrong way? Where the respect lies. "The hardest job kids face today is learning good manners without seeing any." ~ Fred Astaire We are ALL uniquely made! There's only ONE of YOU! Which means that your perspective

Many healthy habits are extremely rewarding. One of those is sexual intimacy. Let's talk how intimacy can boost your health. During our conversation, we will discuss opening about sexual intimacy. This is appropriate for children. However, please use your earbuds if you do not want them to listen. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact  The benefits of sexual intimacy: IMPROVES IMMUNITY When you have sex frequently (1x-2x a week), you have higher levels of immunoglobin A, which is your first line of defense. Also it's job is to fight off invading organisms at the entry point. Ultimately, you take less sick days! YES!!! HEART HEALTH Sexual intimacy has many of the same benefits as exercise. Keeps testosterone and estrogen levels in balance.  A study showed that men who have regularly sexual intimacy (2x a week) is almost 50% less likely to develop heart disease than a man who only did so once a month or less.

When you're running late and have forgotten the date, there's no time like the present to pump up your day! Our mornings can be rough and get crazy, the days can grow long and make us weary. But one thing you have always to pump up your day is your SMILE! :) Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact  In all seriousness though, we do get bummed out and flustered with what's happening in our life. You have a gift that can turn your day around and not just for you, but for others. "Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of joy." ~ Thick Nhat Hanh When you connect the heart and the mind, where is the smile located? Halfway in between the two. That's not coincidence. It's God-designed perfection! The simple act of smiling can transform you and the world you touch. Pump up your day! Research shows that smiling affects the brain. When you smile, the muscles in your face a

What would it mean to you to have freedom? Freedom to what you want; to live with unlimited financial resources, to live with time to spare, to live serving others. What would that mean to you? Let freedom ring! Today, we honor and celebrate a great man, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. A man who walked by faith as a pastor first and then, fighting for the rights of others.

Through his short life, he didn't separate his Christian beliefs, his private life, with his public life. There are men and women who have gone before us that deserve to be honored and recognized. But more so for what they taught us. Dr. King wanted freedom for all regardless of race, color, nationality. What would it mean to you to let freedom ring? The freedoms in your heart. The freedom that bonds you together that lets you be one in perfect h

Have you ever thought about what makes you come alive? What makes your heart pound louder. Create heart-centered goals to feed the soul. In a conversation I had with my mother, she  told me that we are focused sometimes to a fault.  Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact  This comment really surprised me. At the time, I didn't feel real accomplished on my goals, as I had a few more on the list than I had achieved. So I was very doubtful. However, what I discovered in my reflection to understand my hiccups, I accomplished the goals that fed my soul. The ones that brought me to life. The goals I had an invested interest in. When these goals were set, they were met! Sounds really simple! As you know simplicity doesn't always mean easy. There is a study for everything you want to prove. But does it make it right? What this really means is we need to take common sense and make it common practice. "I did everything the

Have you ever had those feelings you want a do-over? You can have all things new, but it starts with you. You have to find within your heart to refresh the old and celebrate the new. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact  Being that's it's the new year, having all things new is exciting and gives us a sense of energy. Our enthusiasm grows. We get more interested in it. What would happen if you would refresh the old and make it new again in your heart? "But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purposes of His heart through all generations." ~ Psalm 33:11 The K.I.S.S. ~ Search your heart! Connect the dots and look beyond the mess. "You're not a mess; you're very blessed." "Many are asking, 'Who can show us any good? Let the light of your face shine upon us, O Lord.You have filled my heart with greater joy.'" ~ Psalm 4:6-7  CHALLENGE: Think about why you do what you do. Connect the mind and the heart.  

Are you spinning through life with reminders that you're not good enough? Whether you realize it or not, you are blessed beyond the mess. As a mom of 5, I've had m share of tornados in the home.

Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact  Sound familiar? Life is messy. But in that mess, there are blesses. A lot of it stems from us being caught up in our own heads, our own logic. What seems to be missing in the messes we are creating is the heart. The ONE element that draws us closer to how we are to live --- the life beat! Who's driving your life? There's power behind the wheel. But with that power comes responsibilities. When we have that power behind the wheel, we try to dictate where we go, every turn we take, what pothole to hit.  The K.I.S.S. ~ Surrender the mess! Leave the mess at the cross. Give up control. Walk by faith. "God majors in the minors." ~

The first day milk arrived in bottles was January 11th in 1878. Now I feel young! There was a study done by McMaster University (a study funded by Diary Farmers of Canada). What they discovered was active children need to be watered with milk. "Children become dehydrated during exercise and it's important they get enough fluids, particularly before going into a second round of a game. Milk is better than either a sports drink or water because it is a source of high quality proteins, carbohydrates, calcium and electrolytes." 1% of dehydration can have up to a 15% decrease in performance, with an increased heart rate, core temperature and less ability to keep going. The most vital factor to achiev

In life, we can become too regimented in our mind, body, and spirit. As we conform to what we know, the voice of the heart is lost. In fact, we don't even know the heart has a voice because we bury our feelings, our emotions, and our dreams in order to survive the daily routines and responsibilities we call life.  Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women?

Why do you do what you do in your life? A question all of us need to be asking. How can you apply it to your life; your new year's resolutions, your business, and your spiritual growth? Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact  Why do you do what you do? When we talk about WHY, it's W.H.Y. ~ What's Holding You? Your WHY is your purpose, cause, belief, your story. It's your constant motivation behind your what and how. Your WHY is the heartbeat! However, with the desire of new goals, new habits, and new dreams, the WHY is forgotten. WHY is the driving force. It keeps you focused. Your WHY brings Stability Confidence Security Vision Hope Keeps you grounded If you keep coming back to your WHY, you won't get lost in the what and how. Your WHY can be multi-layered.

With only being 2 weeks out from Christmas, the holiday of perfect peace, we are already finding ourselves trapped with unrested thoughts. Thoughts of unpaid bills. Thoughts of unfavorable health diagnoses. Thoughts of unrealistic business aspirations. Unfulfilled dreams. And undone goals of the week. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact  There's no safety or security in where your life is headed. The fresh start of the new year seems to be diminishing. Why worry? Yet we do. And when we do, it robs us of perfect peace.
