Need A New Perspective? Spend The Day In High Heels…
I love shoes! First there is the obvious ~ you can ALWAYS go shoe shopping. I admit that I have been known to skip trying on jeans because I just wasn’t feeling it that day, but I am always up for trying on shoes! There is always something in my closet that is just awaiting the perfect pair of shoes to transform it from ho hum to out of this world.
They can also change the whole look and vibe of an outfit. Pair a black dress with flip flops and you can wear it on a warm summer day strolling the board walk along the water. Pair it with a classic pump and that same dress can take you to the board room with confidence and style. Take that same dress and pair it with some racy red high heels and you are ready for a night out on the town. Don’t you just feel sexier with high heels on? It’s not just 3 different outfits ~ it’s 3 different perspectives on the world. Relaxed and fun, driven and professional, and sexy and alive.
Have some fun today and spend the day in some high heels. The higher the better. I wore some 6 inch heels on Tuesday and it is amazing how different it feels to be that tall! Don’t panic if the thought of wearing heels that high has visions of sprained ankles dancing in your head. Get some wedges or platform shoes. Admittedly they are still a bit wobbly until you get used to them, but they are MUCH more stable and kinder to your feet thank stilettos.
It was amazing to walk around a whole 6 inches taller! Stand at the counter in your kitchen and notice how much further you have to reach. Notice how other people seem so much shorter now. It really is a whole new perspective. Just don’t look at the top of your refrigerator with your new found height ~ it will make you cringe at the dust up there! 🙂
Take your new perspective and apply it to something in your life that you have been trying to figure out. Maybe you just need to change the angle that you come at it.

Bet On Yourself VS The Market
Last week I shared how the end of August is a weird time – wanting to savor summer, while also shifting back into work mode. Turns out I’m not the only one this happens to! Thank you for all of the notes and feedback. I’ve found that when I’m not taking action, I spend WAY…
I Used To Dread The Last 2 Weeks Of August
Thirty years in real estate has taught me a lot of things. One of the best is this: I can finally see my own patterns. Like the one where I get twitchy every year mid-August. Part of me wants summer to stretch on forever. Part of me is itching for routine, order, and the satisfaction…
Beliefs = Actions = Results – It Matters Where You Start
August is an interesting month for me. I’m savoring the relaxed pace of summer, while also starting to think about Fall and shifting back into work mode. With a shift in focus I naturally start wondering what will happen. Will I be busy? Where will my clients come from? Will they be buyers or sellers?…
What Do You LOVE About Your Business?
I’m back!!! There’s been a lot going on lately, (more on that in a later post) and it’s been a few weeks since I’ve sent you a note. Needless to say, I’ve missed you! I’ve been moving through a lot of ‘life’ lately, and there’s been a common thread in my business that has surprised…
How Do You Want Summer To Feel?
Summer is often a season of expectations not meeting reality. I used to think my perfect summer meant iced tea on the patio while reading every day. For the record, that’s never happened. And for a while, I felt bad about it — like I was missing out, like I was doing summer wrong. Until…
You’re Not Behind, There Are Infinite Options
Your in box is about to fill up with emails about us being 1/2 through the year. You know – the ones that ask if you’re on track with your goals, and offer a solution to whip you into shape for the next 6 months. If you are having a great year – I celebrate…
Letting Go Of The Hustle Sounds Great, But You’ve Got a Business To Run
To be clear, I am 100% for less hustle, more flow, manifesting, receiving, regulating my nervous system, and letting things be easier. But somewhere between: “That sounds amazing” and “I’m a real estate agent – I need to generate clients and sell houses to earn an income” Things can get confusing. Because no matter how…
The Beauty of Not Doing It Alone
Thank you for being part of this community! I learned something beautiful and powerful last week. It was vulnerable to post about recalibrating, and being in the messy middle of grieving. Yet the conversations, emails, texts and notes have meant to much. To know that we are not alone is one of the greatest gifts…
Recalibrate In a Business That Runs 24/7
It happens to me every year about this time. The need to recalibrate. In a business that can run 24/7 – it’s easy to look up one day and realize, your batteries are drained and there’s no break in sight. Side note – It doesn’t have to be a 24/7 thing, but that’s a topic…
It’s Okay For Things To Be Different
I often find myself comparing things. I compare my business this year to years past.I compare my health and fitness to where I was 10 years ago.I compare how I show up and experience different life events. On the one hand – it makes perfect sense. Our brains crave predictability. It calms our nervous system.…
