Anyone else looking back on the MAYhem of last month and really ready for some peace?! If you’re anything like me, last month has been full of chauffeuring the kids around to dance competitions, lacrosse tournaments, t-ball games etc. on top of all the amazing and chaotic tasks that come with running a business, a household and a healthy wellbeing; like a said… mayhem.

The first quarter of the year is officially over, and so many of my clients have ALREADY come to our time together this month starting to really feel the pressure. They’re scrambling, overwhelmed, frustrated and running a million miles a minute.

I am sure we’ve all heard the term New Year, New Me, right? Those obsessed with resolutions love to focus on the ‘new me’ part, but honestly? You don’t need a new you, you’re great! Like really great. Are there areas within your life that could use some improvement, sure! Isn’t there always, for everyone? So here goes a new way of thinking –

Soul Purpose is your unique series of talents, strengths, passions, interests, hobbies, attitudes and values that form the essence of the most magnificent version of you.

When these qualities are intentionally acknowledged and cultivated, they coalesce into a specific mission in service to the world.

I teach the following eight principles in The Soul Purpose Institute and my book The Prosperity Paradigm.

If lived, these principles will unlock your potential and lead you to experience unprecedented peace, joy, and fulfillment.

The Law of Attraction doesn’t work.

At least, not the way it’s been taught and how most people try to apply it.

Millions of people have seen or read The Secret and believe in the Law of Attraction, but have been very disappointed with their poor results in using it.

If you’re anything like me, you’re starting to wind down summer, doing your best to soak up the last few days as the sun sets earlier and earlier each night. For some of you, kids are already back to school and that routine has already set in. Some of you are preparing for the college drop off, settling into the idea of empty nesting, or being down one less kiddo in the house. For others, there is still a few weeks left before the madness sets in. 

SUMMER!  It feels surreal to sit back and think about the fact that we’re already halfway through JULY, am I right??  But with sun, warmth and no school for the kiddos comes late nights, parties, pools, beaches, the list goes on!  AND for some of us…exhaustion.

In the last several years, Mindfulness has become a hot topic. Everyone’s talking and writing about it. But, what exactly is it . . . and why does it matter?

Mindfulness is a present moment, non-judgmental awareness, paying attention to what’s going on in the present moment without judging it as good or bad.

Today our expert guest is Steve D’Annunzio, and he is committed to improving the welfare of humanity. He is an author and co-creator of many books, businesses, and artistic projects. 

For some of us this new year has brought us back to square one, for others it’s just another day and date that we must get used to writing. However, for most of us, it provides hope + motivation for change. Regardless of your experience, what does this new year mean to YOU? What does that change look like? 

You are not alone. 

Maybe you’re sick of hearing about COVID, and I wouldn’t blame you. Whether you were hurt physically, financially, psychologically, or all of the above- one thing is for sure, you are definitely not alone. 

…but we all know that fear and worry can happen at any time. It’s a part of our biological make up. There’s actually a small part of our brain (the basal ganglia) that was created solely to survive; actively driving our fears, doubts and worries. It is the “fight or flight” response that REACTS to situations and experiences. This reptilian brain is the old guy on the block and one tough guy to manage sometimes. Whereas being reactive can be useful in some situations (like when we’re running away from ghosts!) more times than not it creates dysfunctionality within our world.

In the 1990’s, neuroscientists led by Marcus Raichle of Washington University in St. Louis made a shocking discovery. They were researching energy and oxygen consumption by the brain expecting energy and oxygen consumption to increase when the brain is performing a complex task.

As a full-time coach and mother of three, multitasking is a way of life. I will not pretend to be the first mother to wear a gazillion hats; the first mom who has tiny, perfect wildlings running around while attempting to upkeep a home, AND run/build/maintain a successful business. Woof, I got tired just writing that!

Are you trapped inside an inherited purpose – where you’re living in the realm of socially dictated ‘shoulds’? Or have you tapped into the freedom that’s available when you find your soul’s purpose? 

This episode’s guest is Steve D’Annunzio – a spiritual teacher who helps people access their higher self, so they can live more joyful, productive lives. 

Bill Costello, after decades of being a successful general agent for MassMutual, joined the Mission Driven Advisor team as a business and life coach in 2019. One may ask, how do you go from being a GA to being a coach?

Given how difficult this year has been, I wanted to share a historical perspective of the possibilities available to you right now, if you’re willing to ride what I call, ‘the fourth wave’. 

Humankind has experienced three evolutionary waves of growth. The first was the cognitive revolution, the second was the agricultural revolution, and the third, the scientific revolution.
