Are you putting off a passion project in your life simply due to time constraints, fear or anxiety that it won’t be good? My friends & I call it “the monster” because the more you avoid it, the bigger the monster becomes keeping you from taking the first step. Personally, I am juggling several passion projects, but what I realized recently is that doubt & fears were paralyzing any progress. So, this week I made a few decisions. I decided to pick a project & commit. I set a “first stage” deadline & reached out to the person who wants to collab and said “I’m ready to begin.” Believe it or not, it wasn’t as scary as I thought. In fact, once I said “yes” it felt quite freeing. What are you postponing or kicking down the road? My hope is that you can find the courage to begin. Just begin. You got this!!! 💪 Picture by @hamidmoslehiphotography Makeup @annieingmakeup Shirt @zara #justbegin #kindquotes #writer #womeninbusiness #newproject #kindness #bekindandco #luparkermediagroup #inspire #womenwhowrite #zara #luckyjeans #journalist #trusttheprocess #collab #outdoorphotography

I believe looking at a situation from a new light can sometimes reveal a perspective that can change how you ultimately react/respond. Martha Graham once said “What people in the world think of you is really none of your business.” These are some of the ways I deal with decision making in my own life. ~While you are making a big decision, don’t forget your “why” ~Stop thinking “I Should” and instead think “I Can” ~Meditate daily, even if only 5 minutes. ~Be kind to yourself. Emotions will flow AND you can handle it. 💜 Picture by @hamidmoslehiphotography Makeup by @annieingmakeup #perspective #bekindandco #decisions #womensupportingwomen #luparkermediagroup #meditate #blue #kindness #speaker #motivationalspeaker #bekindtoyourself #bekindandco #luparker #why #focusonthegood

Calling all pet owners!! A new book to tell you about called “In Good Company” by @supertographer 📷 We did this photo shoot several years ago on our old set @ktla5news – My late dog Monkey was an amazing soul & served as my co-anchor for the day. 😂 Johanna’s book is a compilation of pet portraits portraying the relationship between owner & pet. She says our pets help put life itself into perspective. They humanize us and prevent us from taking ourselves too seriously. Check out pics of @ed_begley_jr @theonlyedasner & @thedeewallace A percentage of profits will be donated to a wolf and wolf-dog rescue and advocacy organization. @apexprotectionproject #photography #petphotography #behindthescenes #ktla #rescuepup #monkey #luparker #newsanchor #womenwhowork #luparker #bekindandco #kindness #speaker #doglover #horsephoto #book #tablebook #ingoodcompany #loveyourpetday #ktla #news #necktie #onset

“Don’t stare at the closed door too long…you’ll miss the window opening” I love this quote & it’s so relevant while in France seeing many beautiful unique doors & windows in these small towns. I often wonder who lives behind the door and what they dream of when they look out their windows. What do you dream of? 💕 #provence #travel #windows #kitty #doors #france #explore #joy #universe #history #womenwhotravel #getaway #dream #love #life

While I love celebrating July 4th, this day can also be very stressful due to fireworks and dog safety. Thousands of dogs end up in shelters or are hit by cars when they escape. In turn, dogs already at the shelters are euthanized to make room for the influx. Great news- @petco and @laanimalservices have partnered to help you find your lost pet or help you when you find a lost dog. Visit www.lost.Petcolove.org You can also call this number 424-354-3914 for lots of help. Best way to help: Bring your pets indoors. Use treats to distract them. Play calming music. Leave his/her crate door open so they don’t freak out. Never leave a scared dog home alone. Thank you all for reading & maybe sharing. ❤️💙🐕❤️💙 @moosedogla says thank u too!!!! 🐾 #dogs #petco #petcolove #fireworks #lostdog #july4th #laanimalservices #pets #fireworkssafety #lostpets #spca

As philosopher Heraclitus once said, “The only constant in life is change.” But dang, it can hurt to pivot & start again. I’ve been asking myself lately, how do we navigate our life journey of mixed emotions & begin to heal? According to NYT’s Best Selling author Lori Gottlieb, “It’s our honesty with ourselves that helps us make sense of our lives with all their nuances and complexity. Repress those thoughts and you’ll likely behave badly. Acknowledge them, and you’ll grow.” 💜 My wish for you today is that you can be honest with yourself about what you need to heal & in the meantime go be a light for the world to see and feel. ✨✨💫 Drawing by @stay.positive.in.life #bekindtoyourself #trust #changeyourthoughts #loveisrespect #kindnessmatters #honesty #emotions #lorigottlieb #joy #newbeginnings #dontliveinthepast #findyourtribe #bekindandco #familymatters #honesty

Trust your gut…✨ Our bodies know when something feels right or feels off. Don’t dismiss that sensation. It’s a powerful tool inside each of us that we often ignore for many reasons.

A good friend once said to me “I have become friends with my hunger pains.” He was trying to lose weight & eventually leaned into the hunger & became friends. I never forgot that. So, when I heard the quote “Become friends with change” last night while watching a film about @babaramdass, it caught my attention. Ram says as we go through life, we can be friendly with what challenges us. Our bodies change. Our minds change ~even death is change. When we embrace it as a moment or possibly a chapter, the change seems less frightening. Today I am becoming friends with my urge to know what the future holds. What change, challenge or pain can you befriend?

Express it. Don’t seek it. 💜 I read this quote today doing research for an upcoming interview. The words hit me like a ton of bricks. Think about it. We often focus on only “seeking” joy. We can become obsessed with the high that joy brings – a new car, a new job, a new lover, a trip, and even a silly number on a scale… But these are fake highs. They are temporary. The newness will fade. The joy fades every time even if only slightly. So what I heard in Sadhguru’s words boils down to the deeper meaning of what joy looks like. We seek it. We get it. Then soon enough we are empty again. Instead what brings true joy is simple in a weird way. “Expressing” joy – It’s slightly different. It feels warm. It’s magnetic – not selfish like seeking. It’s opening yourself to being vulnerable and letting love in, even if you are scared. Expressing joy means you are sharing not taking. I’ve been expressing my joy through dance, laughter, loving myself (flaws & all) and by living in the joy of NOW – not in the past and not in the future. I’ll keep you posted. 🌻 How do you express joy? #joy #kindness #seek #express #openyourmind #dothework #vulnerability #dance #laughter #loyalty #joyful #sadhguru #bekind #speaker #writer #quotes
