luminous acclamation

25. August 2010

Hello again MML readers.  It’s Heidi from To Be Luminous again.  One of the questions I get most often is why I call my coaching practice “To Be Luminous.”  Recently I’ve written a Luminous Acclamation- a manifesto so to speak that defines what a luminous woman is and what my practice represents. Enjoy!  And don’t [...]

sponsor post: to be luminous; fresh fall start/giveaway

(post written by Heidi life coach and blogger of To Be Luminous) “Don’t you love New York in the fall? It makes me want to buy school supplies. I would send you a bouquet of newly sharpened pencils if I knew your name and address..” -Joe Fox from You’ve Got Mail Each new school year [...]

the “i’m on vacation” string

18. August 2010

Though I haven’t mentioned it before, I’ve decided to go on vacation during the entire month of August. In fact, I’ve been on vacation for the past two weeks and it will continue through the weeks to come as well. But I haven’t missed one day of work and I’m not going on any major [...]

what to do when you don’t know your purpose (yet)

5. August 2010

As promised on Monday, I’m going to share something that I realized while talking to, Stephanie, an MML reader who recently left the job she knew wasn’t her calling in order fulfill her purpose. The only problem is, she doesn’t know what that purpose or next step might be… Yet. As we talked over coffee, [...]

produce your own success story

3. August 2010

Pardon me, but I’m a little fired up today. While standing in line at the CVS to pick up some contact solution yesterday afternoon, I glanced at the cover of one of the weekly magazines and saw a feature on how “Ali from the Bachelor lost 10 pounds as revenge”… or something like that. Regardless [...]

letting myself off the hook

13. July 2010

A few years ago Erwin and I used to go running and share our weekly intentions for each of our roles (personal, career, family, significant other, friend…). If you have read Covey’s The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, this exercise will sound familiar. It is a great way for us to reflect on the [...]

THINK ABOUT IT: who’s talking?

26. May 2010

This THINK ABOUT IT has been something I’ve been working on personally since last November. What I have learned over the past several months is that there are two parts to myself, one sits just within my right ear and the other resides deep within my core. Since discovering these two different thought sources, I [...]

THINK ABOUT IT: job, career, or calling?

12. May 2010

Today’s THINK ABOUT IT comes from a passage I read yesterday from Happy for No Reason, by Marci Shimoff. As I’ve mentioned in the past, this book though similar to a lot of positive psychology research I’ve read, but does have home runs as well. From reading comments, emails, and Dream Reporter submissions, I know [...]

THINK ABOUT IT: getting off your ‘but’

5. May 2010

UPDATE: I found the video that inspired this post! Last week I watched a video about the Sean Stephenson, author of Get Off Your “But” and though I haven’t read the book itself, I think the title is pretty freaking awesome and it applies to today’s THINK ABOUT IT topic, moving forward past fears. People [...]

THINK ABOUT IT: unwillingess

21. April 2010

Today’s THINK ABOUT IT struck me in a passage I read this morning in A Course in Miracles. Unwillingness can be most carefully concealed behind a cloak of situations you cannot control. Learn to distinguish situations that are poorly suited to your practicing from those that you establish to uphold a camouflage for your unwillingness. [...]

THINK ABOUT IT: the no complaint string

14. April 2010

Okay, I know I don’t usually “vent” here on MML. I find there is a fine line in my mind between being transparent and having a pity party for myself. Because of which, I usually try to learn lessons before sharing the story here on the blog. That said, over the past six months I [...]
