The mind is undoubtedly an amazing thing. It’s extremely complex. Often disobedient, all over the place, and feels uncontrollable at times. I recently saw a meme that said – My mind is like an internet browser. 17 tabs are open. 4 of them are frozen […]
My new book – From Hot Mess to God’s Best: Decluttering Your Mess to Be Your Best – will be published in just over four weeks. I’m excited but also nervous. You pour a lot of your blood, sweat and tears into a book and […]
