As beautiful and vibrant is the world we live in, it can also feel overwhelming and all-consuming at times. It seems like the factors of our environment are constantly changing, which is why most people (if not everyone, really), suffer from some sort of anxiety. It’s natural to feel anxious about things. Stressful situations–a big […]
It’s been a moment since we touched on the topic of how to live intentionally. Because of the recent relaunch of La.Rue, I thought it might be fun to revisit how one may begin their journey to an intentional life. Just like all lifestyles, the habit of living intentionally isn’t born overnight. It takes more […]
What is an Upper Limit Problem? The Upper Limit is a term coined by Gay Hendricks in his book, The Big Leap. The Big Leap is a non-fiction piece on why we all have subconscious ceilings, or Upper Limits, for success and happiness in our lives. I’ve previously discussed The Big Leap on both the […]
It’s been a little bit since we last checked in on our intentional living journey as a collective. Habits are a huge factor in living an intentional life. The habits we intentionally practice significantly impact our mind, body, health, mood, vibration, etc. When I first launched La.Rue, a brand focused on living intentionally, the scope […]
The Effects of healing Inward to heal outward Our body is a living, breathing organism with its own personal ecosystem that is keeping us alive. This ecosystem is a carefully constructed world that has evolved over the centuries. This means that although you may be X age, your body functions from thousands of years of […]
There are several models of thinking that describe how our brains function and why we think the way we do. Over the last two years, I’ve studied several of these models. I wanted to become the best coach possible, but as I was going through my healing journey, I began to wonder why I thought […]
The relationships we have with our parents are different than every other relationship we have. I am incredibly close with my parents, and although it hasn’t always been this way, it is now for several reasons. One highly important reason is while I was learning to heal my trauma, I learned to heal my mindset. […]
On some level, every entrepreneur struggles with some form of perfectionism. This is because as an entrepreneur, we’re not working just another job. What we’re creating is something often representative of ourselves and something we love. This puts us in a more vulnerable position with whatever it is we’re selling, offering, or creating. When something […]
What is Emotional Freedom Tapping or Technique? EFT is a practice used with a technique of acupressure tapping on the meridian points of your body. What are meridian points? These are points on your body, mainly your face, that correspond with the route energy runs throughout your body. These are points above the eyebrow, side […]
When I think of boundaries, I see this image of malleable moving parts constantly being pushed and pulled in different directions. Just like many aspects of our lives, our boundaries are constantly changing. We have different boundaries for different conditions of our lives, different people, places, etc. Everything in our lives is separated by categories […]
Spring Cleaning: an annual purging many participate in to clear out belongings we no longer need, clothes we no longer wear, and things we no longer use. But what else does Spring Cleaning do for us? It’s not just a physical purge of items sitting in the back of your closet or under your bed […]
Do you remember learning the laws of thermodynamics when you were in elementary school? The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. The exact amount of energy that pre-existed humans is the same amount of energy today. The same law applies to spiritual energy. In the spiritual conversation, this […]
Everything in life requires a balance of some sort; an equal give and take, push and pull, right and left. For us to know that we’re happy, we must experience sadness. We must know what the opposite of one thing is to know we’re experiencing the other. Balance, in many instances, can be relative. What […]
It’s been a bit since we went back to our roots of what it means to truly live intentionally. I figure it’s probably best to update this ongoing conversation with some 2022 Positive Habits. We touch on this topic every few months because just as we evolve, change and grow, our habits and lifestyle should […]
Have you ever become so caught up in the plot of a movie or the narrative of a book that it feels like the story and its characters are becoming a part of your reality? Almost as if you can see the narrative play out in your own life? It’s like your reality shifts to […]
What is the gray space in manifesting? A lot about manifesting is very clear—believe you can, and you will. Believing in your power is easy. But what about this area in between in which our mind bounces back and forth between the responsibility we have to ourselves versus trusting wholly in the Universe? When we […]
We’ve all heard some variation of the work-life balance intersection throughout our lives, the goal being to grow up and have a career that doesn’t outweigh your personal life. I recently had a thought on this concept (one I’m sure isn’t new to this topic of conversation): what if the work-life balance isn’t necessarily an […]
Feeling stuck is a state of mind. It’s not a state of being that we’re actually in (a literal stuck position), but rather a feeling that the energy in your life is stagnant. Stagnation is a wildly low vibrational energy that tends to leave us feeling unfulfilled and lacking in accomplishment. But, the feeling of […]
