As a women’s life and purpose coach, I have seen firsthand one of the most damaging things you can do in life. That devastating thing is staying in your comfort zone. I have seen so many women get comfortable in their career, business, relationships, and life in general. This can really be harmful to your growth and your stability. I have been a victim of complacency myself, and had to push past my own comfort zone. This can really be a scary thing, to step outside of the  box and live the life you were created to live. I want to share with you 4 reasons you should push  past your comfort zone and live out loud. 1. Feel the fear and do it anyway .

Do you know that when you give yourself permi...

There are so many products that have low fat, low sugar and low calories on the label but they are still packaging it with plenty of preservatives and ingredients that are actually harmful to our bodies. When an item has super low calories or super low fat it is because they are increasing the amount of sodium or sugar or msg it has in it to make up for the taste! Furthermore, there is nothing lean about "lean cuisine." These meals are full of sodium and have very little nutritional value.  Are you still eating the maple & brown sugar oats?
