Dare To Dream

Dare To Dream
Hello, dreamers! Today, I want to share a little encouragement for anyone who might be hesitating at the threshold of a big decision. It’s tempting to stay comfortable, to stick with the good we know, but imagine what could happen if we reach for what looks great. Success isn’t just about taking opportunities; sometimes, it’s about creating them. It means stepping out of comfort zones, risking the good for the potential of the great. If you’ve been pondering a bold move—whether it’s a new job, a big move, or any change that feels both terrifying and exciting—I’m here to say: Go for it!Trust me when I say, make the move and don’t wait for validation. After my divorce in Nov 2016, the first place I visited was Vegas for my birthday in 2017. I went alone and had a blast. When I left Vegas, I said I’m moving to Vegas one day. Fast forward 5 years later, I’m sitting in my living room talking about my 3 year plan with my daughter and she said, mom you don’t have to wait 3 years, tell the Universe to surprise and delight you. I changed my mindset, my self-talk script and in less than 6 months the opportunity came, the doors opened and I made the move. It’s been the best decision for my life. Mostly out of love but sometimes out of selfish reasons, people will discourage you from Going For It. I made the decision to move to Vegas, I didn’t make an announcement. No I had no friends or family here, God expanded my circle upon arrival.I am sharing my story to encourage you to embrace your greatness. There is nothing to fear. GO FOR IT. DARE TO DREAM. Remember, every great achievement was once considered impossible. Let God, Source, Higher Power surprise and delight you. DARE TO DREAM. #energeticerica #DareToDream #GoForGreat #SuccessStories

Positive Vibes Only

Positive Vibes Only
Just dropping in to remind us all about the power of surrounding ourselves with positivity and people who uplift us. Life’s too short to spend time in negativity. Let’s choose to be around those who inspire us, support us, and help us to grow. Whether it’s friends, family, or colleagues, make sure the people in your circle motivate you to be your best self. When you experience someone who shares positivity, give that person a shoutout to let them know their positivity is appreciated! Let’s create a ripple effect of positivity! It’s very easy to do. It’s ok to Lift Each Other Higher.Positive Vibes Only is not a cliche, it's a way of life, a daily practice. It starts with your mindset. It’s like facing a setback and seeing it as a lesson. It’s not just about positive thoughts, it’s about having a positive outlook on life. It’s about the seeds that we plant in the garden of our minds and nurturing them to grow. A part of this process is speaking kindly to yourself. Your words have power, especially the ones you say to yourself. Replace self criticism with self compassion. Change your internal dialogue to positivity. When you have a moment of negativity, PAUSE, RESET & START AGAIN. It’s ok. We’re all human. With every positive thought you’re making progress. Growth is sometimes about reflection. Reflect on sharing positivity so it can spread like a wildfire. Remember, when we lift each other up, we all rise. Let’s keep those vibes high and the support strong. Positive Vibes Only!  #energeticerica #PositiveVibes #Uplift #FriendshipGoals

Believe In Yourself

Believe In Yourself
Believe in yourself, even when no one else does. Your potential is limitless, and your journey is uniquely yours. Believe in yourself no matter what. Don’t listen to those who doubt you and always have something to say that doesn’t positively feed your energy. What I’ve learned on this journey in life, is people will put their fears on you and expect you to walk in that. Tap into your higher self. Use wisdom and go after your greatness. On the other side of your comfort zone, your doubts and fears, is a place of freedom. Freedom to explore. Freedom to take risks. Freedom to be your authentic self. Freedom to love you. Freedom is such a great space to be in. Don’t stay chained to your past. So what you fumbled a few times, hit a few potholes, had some dirt thrown on you. Now you know what it feels like so don’t stay there. Believe in yourself. Believe that you can reach your goals. Believe that you can do whatever you set your mind to. Don’t look outside of yourself for validation and approval. You are the validation and approval. Edison failed 2774 times before he got the lightbulb correct so quit your whining and get to it. The saying goes “you kiss many frogs before you get to the prince charming or the princess (ok I added a little more), however you get the point. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF. Every day wake up and say a positive affirmation. “Universe surprise and delight me.’ ‘Today will be a great day. ‘ I’m so happy that my clients enjoy working with me. ‘ ‘I’m a part of a winning team. ‘ Whatever your positive affirmation is say it. Level up with your words and your thoughts. Believe In Yourself NO MATTER WHAT. 

New Day, New Start

New Day, New Start
What’s in your morning cup? It should be positivity. As we embark on a new day, let’s make a conscious choice to focus on the positive aspects of our lives. It’s not always easy, but paying attention to the good things can significantly improve our mood and outlook. Look for the good in a morning challenge. If you get a flat tire, be thankful that you’re still safe. Waking up and starting the day with positivity truly makes a difference. Whether it’s enjoying a warm cup of coffee, or just being grateful for the sunshine—every day has something good.Every day is a new day and a new start. Release what has passed and embrace the new so you can move forward in positivity.If today you find yourself facing challenges, take a moment to pause and reflect on something positive that has happened. You might be surprised how it can turn your day around. Let’s spread this mindset and encourage others to look for the silver linings. #energeticerica #FocusOnTheGood #PositiveVibes #MindfulLiving

SELF LOVE

SELF LOVE
Hello, beautiful souls! Today, let’s open our hearts to a topic that’s the foundation of all joy, success, and fulfillment in life: self-love. Embarking on the journey to self-love is perhaps the most beautiful adventure you can undertake. It’s about recognizing your inherent worth, embracing your uniqueness, and treating yourself with the same kindness and compassion you offer others. Self-love is not selfish; it’s essential. It’s the wellspring from which our capacity to love others flows. 
Here’s how we can start nurturing self-love today: 
1. Affirmations - Begin each day by affirming your worth. Stand in front of the mirror and say, “I am worthy. I am enough. I am beautiful.” Believe it. 
2. Self-Compassion - Be gentle with yourself. Speak to yourself as you would to a dear friend. Allow yourself grace, especially during tough times. 
3. Celebrate Your Uniqueness - We’re all WIRED DIFFERENTLY. There’s only one you in this vast universe. Celebrate what makes you unique, even if it’s different from what the world celebrates. 
4. Set Boundaries - Protect your energy. It’s okay to say no to things that drain you and yes to things that fulfill you. It’s ok to say NO to people. Honor YOU! 
5. Nurture Your Body and Mind - Self-love is holistic. Eat nourishing foods, move your body in ways you enjoy, and give yourself time to rest and recharge. Personally I’ve started juicing. I’m cutting carbs, sugar, fried foods and I have started reading the labels. WHAT A DIFFERENCE!
6. Forgive Yourself - We all make mistakes. Forgiveness is a powerful act of self-love. Learn from the past but don’t let it define you.
7. Pursue Passions - Make time for things that light you up inside. Whether it’s art, music, writing, or gardening, your passions are a reflection of your soul. 
Remember, the journey to self-love is ongoing. It’s filled with discoveries, challenges, and triumphs. Let’s commit to this journey together. Share one act of self-love you’ll do today in the comments. Let’s inspire each other with the beauty of self-compassion and acceptance. You are worthy. You are beautiful. You are loved. #energeticerica #JourneyToSelfLove #EmbraceYourWorth #SelfLoveJourney

My Story: From Friction to Flow

I know firsthand what it feels like to live a life filled with friction. At one point, I was navigating through the struggles of a divorce, burdened with low self-worth, and caught in the exhausting cycle of people-pleasing. I felt disconnected from who I truly was, constantly seeking external validation while losing sight of my own value. 

That life of friction led to burnout, emotional depletion, and a deep sense of emptiness. But within that darkness, I knew there had to be more. There had to be a way to turn the turmoil into something empowering—something that allowed me to move through life with grace and ease. That’s when I developed my C3 Strategy, and everything changed.

The C3 Strategy: Clarity, Connection, and Confidence

Clarity of Mind  
First, I began by clearing the mental clutter that had accumulated from years of self-doubt, fear, and external pressures. I got real with myself about what I wanted and needed. I started to ask the tough questions: Who am I really? What do I stand for? What no longer serves me? This process of self-inquiry gave me the clarity I needed to see the path ahead.

Connection to My Highest Self 
Once my mind was clear, I could hear my inner voice again—the one that had been silenced by years of trying to be everything for everyone else. I connected to my highest self, the part of me that already knew the answers and held the wisdom to guide me. This connection to my inner truth was the turning point in my journey, empowering me to make decisions that aligned with my true desires.

Confidence Walk
As I gained clarity and deepened my connection to my highest self, I found the courage to walk in confidence. Confidence became my shield, my armor. It allowed me to set boundaries, say no without guilt, and move forward without fear of judgment. Confidence became my way of protecting my energy and embracing my power unapologetically.

Turning Friction Into Flow

With clarity, connection, and confidence, my life transformed from friction to flow. Instead of fighting against life’s challenges, I now move through them with ease, knowing that I am guided by my own inner compass. I reclaimed my power, redefined my worth, and found a sense of peace I never thought possible.

This transformation is not just my story; it's the foundation of my work. Through my C3 Strategy, I now help others clear their minds, connect with their true selves, and walk in confidence, turning their own struggles into a life of effortless flow. If I can do it, so can you. 

Welcome to a journey of clarity, connection, and confidence—where friction no longer exists, and flow becomes your natural state.
