Today is LOVE DAY, and I'M FULL OF IT...
LOVE, that is. :)
I LOVE my kid, who gave up video game time over the weekend to "Harry Potter" his mom's bugs away. Yes, I used it as a verb. And yes, it worked. By the end of the last movie, my cold was pretty much gone. Extermino bug-o!
I LOVE my hubby, who kept the bug-killing food and NyQuil flowing, and is always supporting my dreams. [I love NyQuil too. :) ]
I LOVE my allies, who inspire me with their commitment to becoming the truest version of themselves.
I LOVE my mentors, who always know when to challenge me to my next level.
I LOVE my clients, who face their stories, stay devoted to their message and mission, and invite me to witness and cheerlead for them along the way.
I LOVE this Mindful Messenger TV Show! I spend most of my time during interviews feeling deep appreciation for these beautiful souls in my life OR laughing because they just crack me up with their honesty, wisdom, and wit.

I LOVE celebrating LOVE... The Wind that we can trust to carry us -- The Co-Author who writes in the characters at the perfect time and twists the plot in our favor even when it doesn't look like it...
My prayer for you today is that The Wind, The Co-Author, or whatever you call It sends you the sweetest LOVE NOTE ever!
And that you'll email me back and tell me what it
looked, sounded, and/or felt like.
Was it in the precious extra moment your child spent snuggling into your shoulder?
The extra long kiss s/he planted on you before work? An inspiration to pay some love forward in a drive-thru? The whisper on a cool breeze, or the warm kiss of the sun? or... Maybe an email that was infused with so much LOVE that it reminded you
that LOVE is what YOU ARE MADE OF...? (wink)

If you have a storyline that is keeping you from living the story you know you are here to enjoy, I want to invite you to the "Break Through Your Story Ceiling" online workshop. I'll be sharing the Story-Shifting Framework I used to facilitate the 21-Day Write Yourself into a Better Story Challenge and story shifts like these in January:
"As always, I was reviewing, analyzing, searching for what was blocking me.
I wasn't sure what the challenge was exactly, but I knew that if Amanda was facilitating it, I would most likely benefit by participating. I was correct in my assumptions.
I liked the daily prompts, the ability to watch again if I needed to, and the pace was perfect for me based on where I was in my own process. Supporting other people in the group kept me from over-thinking/reacting/focusing on myself. I'm re-energized and have more clarity. The loss of hope that accompanies immobility has been replaced with
new hope and action plans. I have shifted from fantasy to reality."

"I signed up for this experience based on my intuition. I had attended a workshop with Amanda, in which my mind made a significant shift. It happened so quickly in that hour-long experience that I was intrigued by her method. I was curious and wanted more of those aha's and mini-breakthroughs to happen. I had spent a year trying to process, uncover, and discover new things about a frustrating and painful story from my childhood so that I could move on. I knew there were even more important things still blocking my view, despite that I had done all of this internal personal work.
In 21 days, less actually, I started to see things about the story that my mind just couldn't see before. I began to make shifts around day 13. And on day 18 another piece of the story surfaced, and I started to feel complete again. I had a fuller understanding of why this story was affecting my life now. I am glad I jumped into this experience because I was able to work on a painful but significant part of my personal story in a safe space surrounded by supportive people. It's kind of strange to think that a group of strangers can come together and hold space for one another while you work on very personal and sometimes painful stuff in your life. Because of this experience, I now can take this framework and prompts and apply them to other stories and see where the story takes me, and what new things I can learn about the characters in my life as well as myself."
