I meet with so many Mom’s that suffer from Mom guilt. Many Mom’s feel like they don’t do enough, like they must meet every single need of every person in their life or that they are the only person who could provide a high enough level of care for their kids. I am here to tell you… you can take time off! Yes, you will always be a “Mom” but you can go off duty and take time for YOU! Besides being a Mom, we are also significant others to someone, beautiful daughters, goddesses, warriors, professionals and so many other things! I don’t know one single Mom that is strictly a Mom and nothing else. So take some time off from the Mom responsibilities once in a while and relax, take a bath, go on a date, have a glass of wine, read a book… whatever it is that YOU like to do. (If you take “time off” and you are watching Nickelodeon and drinking out of a plastic spongebob cup, you might be doing it wrong!)
So tonight, get the kids settled then tell them you are off duty except in the case of house fire or medical emergency. Put the spongebob cup in the sink and go spend some time doing what makes you feel like a grown up and Live Inspired Now!

Here in the United States, we had the presidential debate last night. I have seen people posting all about it and their opinions on facebook and twitter… everyone is a buzz with election fever. It is easy to get caught up in it, especially if you are very involved in politics. However… not everyone cares about politics and some people don’t want to hear about it. In fact, some people might feel offended if you voice your opinions because some people try to avoid political talk. Also, you never know what another person’s views are and they may be completely different than yours. I see so much drama on facebook lately about people getting un-friended because of political posts and opinions…. just ask yourself, are your political posts worth friendships and relationships? Focus on positive, uplifting messages, don’t try to put down the “other side.” Leave those slimy tactics to the politicians and Live INSPIRED Now!

I love to sit in the car at night in the yard! When I first moved here to Upstate NY, I had house mates and the between the house mates, kids and pets, it was quite loud in the house. When a client would call, I would take the calls outside in my car because it was super quiet and I could focus better. Sitting out there one evening coaching a client, I realized, it was really beautiful and peaceful out there. I lived in the country and you could see every star in the galaxy and it was nice and warm in the car. I often saw deer walking through the yard and one night I even saw a shooting star. From that time on, I would sit in the car when I needed some quiet or to have a quiet talk with one of the kids. So tonight, if your house is loud, get out and sit in the car in the yard, look at the stars, enjoy the peace, share a quiet moment with someone special and Live Inspired Now!
