As a speaker on Emotional Intelligence and mindset shifts, you might think I have it all "together." However, the truth is that while I excel in many areas of my life, there are still areas where I lack the discipline and guidance to achieve my goals.

We’ve all heard the phrase “step out of your comfort zone.” Well, what happens when you feel completely comfortable up until the point you realize you are in a whole new element and sudden feelings of insecurity and “imposter syndrome” occur?

Looking on social media, you will see many hashtags for women supporting women, female empowerment, girl power, women empowering women and more. While I feel all these hashtags and posts are important, what I find the most empowering is when we as women take action to actively support one another.

As we celebrate Women’s History Month, we look back at all the fantastic achievements made by women who paved the road for women today. We as women have taken on leadership roles, combated biases, achieved success in all areas of life whether in sports, in corporate roles, the arts, education, family, politics and more.

For the last four years I have been training in the field of Emotional Intelligence (EQ). I first learned about this much need soft skill set from my friend and mentor Jen Groover.

As much of the world has been remaining positive and focusing on the good of times and gratitude for something as simple as a breath of fresh air, there are many people who are living with anxiety during this time of uncertainty.

In life it is important to look at how much we have accomplished.  For a majority of us, our brains are programmed to focus on the negatives and our lack.  One of the most important lessons I have learned through the study and practice of Emotional Intelligence is the ability to retrain my mind to one of abundancy as opposed to scarcity.

The common notion about diversity and inclusion is color, race, gender and disabilities.  What so many people fail to recognize is that diversity has many layers, some which remain unseen.  In fact, a person can fit into many categories.

There is a growing trend that is happening which is a cause of great concern with me.  More and more so I am witnessing the lack of empathy in our society.

By now, most of you have heard more about diversity and inclusion in the media.  In fact, in recent months major hotel chains, fashion houses, and financial institutions have brought in teams to develop diversity and inclusion training into their offices.
