Wear lipgloss. Work in those old, cozy, comfy sweats all day long if you want – but put in a ponytail and add cotton candy pink to your lips. 2 secs= big difference.

Have conversations with colleagues that start with the sentence, “My badass wants this________.” Then ask what their badass wants.

Butt breathe.  As in—breathe from your buttocks. How, you ask? As you inhale, imagine your breath traveling from the base of your butt, up your spine through your lungs, then exhale all the way down—and back through your butt hole. (Amazing what years of training in acting school teaches you).

Have dark chocolate on hand.

REMINDER: fear is powerful energy. Many times, it’s showing you that you’re close to the “birthing” of your desire. So lean in to that desire (vs. pushing against it) and let fear move through you.

Don’t ask, don’t tell. Use this policy with your partner, so that you can shift from “work” mode to partner mode.  I know, know, you want to share your great ideas, and the book you’re going to birth, and the client who (finally) got in touch with her anger and was therefore able to divorce her husband, and now she’s running a successful sex toy store, where she just met the LOVE OF HER LIFE and it all started in that first session with you, and now you think you’re ready—no—fuck that—you ARE ready and you’re going to launch a speaking career and share your brilliance with the world!!!!!

Don’t.  Tell, that is. Word vomit is best done in private.

Get that long overdue eyebrow wax. You deserve it. And you’ll feel… dang good.

Get honest.  And DO tell.  Everything. To a sistah-girlfriend-sheroe-mentor. Don’t have one? Find one. They are roaming all over this planet.

Make a creativity corner. Crayons, gold stars, poster board, magazine, music and chocolate are some of the things that inspire me.

Have more sex. In more places.

Stop comparing.  And just start writing what is amazing about YOU. What is fun for YOU. Create your next launch from that space of amazingness+ fun.
