Today is a sad day as September 11th is the 8th anniversary of the Terrorist Attacks. Each year my heart is very heavy and it is a struggle to get through a radio show. I feel somewhat awkward each year when I go on the radio-I am just not sure what to do…I have a loss for words.

You can rag on her for many things…but I will go against anyone who says Jessica Simpson can’t sing! ( I have been defending her for quite some time..I am used too it, especially in this office)
Maybe I stand alone but some of her songs are great…Her one album…I think it was the one with IN THIS SKIN on it (her single) ..It’s very good…one album you can just throw on and listen to track after track. (clearly the men have already tuned me out here) OK I am going to look this album up now. BRB
YES! It was her 2003 album called IN THIS SKIN. I recommend the whole album.
However, the song that is NOT on that album is her song I BELONG TO ME.
Fabulous song about taking back your life and your independence. Really listen to the words. When I talk to hurting men/women with my life coaching I always recommend music. It is one of the fastest ways to the soul. This song is so healing. The word that comes to my mind is freedom. What comes to yours..I would you to listen/read and share.
Listen to the song now (more…)
Oh happy day….It is Friday and beautiful in the Geneva Lakes area. Days like this make me get REALLY grateful for where I live. Fall in Lake Geneva is amazing.
As you mite know, I am trying to weeeen off coffee. Not for good. Just not everyday. So I replaced my coffee with Green Tea. I like green tea alot and I think it is working. Today however, I did coffee and I am completely unfocused and jazzed up on the radio today. Drinking coffee on an empty stomach is wacky! Matt is supposed to be bring me some pineapple pizza, til then, my vision is “impaired.”
I want you to go out and enjoy the beautiful weekend ahead. Temps. in the 70’s in October! So do something different this weekend. Go for a bike ride, go pick apples, speaking of apples, go to Ocktoberfest in Lake Geneva this weekend if you are local, they have carmel apples freshly dipped! We will have enuff cold weekends to stay in and watch the stock market crash and enough time to clean out those closets.
In the meantime, to get through work faster…I stumbled upon a BRITNEY Spears article. Usually when I see Britney’s name in headlines I overlook it. This time the headline caught my eye as it said:
Britney Spears: ‘What the Hell Was I Thinking?’
I am far from a Brit fan, I never talk about her on the radio but I cant help but wonder when her A-HA moment will come. I believe it will…or maybe it already did.
Britney sat down with MTV for an upcoming documentary. She candidly discusses her loneliness and her regrets about her much-publicized erratic behavior .
Whether you like her or not, aren’t you wondering what the heck happened!? This documentary interests me. I am curious to know how her journey took her where she went. I am curious to know what her “a-ha moment” was…Which event was the real breaking point? As a personal coach, I am really curious about these questions. Plus, as much as she is a celebrity, she is a human BEING first and I predict her story will be powerful . I dont know, call me naive to think she’s turned around. I know there have been ALOT of TV stories on Britney but I have a feeling this one you won’t want to miss.

I am off to go see little Maddie. I have a cute little trick or treat outfit for her. She is so little, she is going to swim in it. That will make it that much more cute 
Create a great weekend!
Cheers to carmel apples!

Happy post 4th of July. It’s hard to get back into the swing of things…Summer is flying by….enjoy the MOMENTS that life brings you everyday. Because tomorrow it’s going to be Winter and you may be scratching your head.
On the 4th of July I went to Itasca’s fireworks show and got to see one of my favorite bands…Lifehouse. I went with my boyfriend, my pregnant sister and her husband.
Me and my sister are like night and day yet we still manage to have an amazing relationship. I love music, she could care-less…so when we show up to the park with thousands of people there, my sister goes into PANIC mode. As a result, we sat way in the back with all the “non fans” of the band. They were just there for the fireworks, not Lifehouse. I knew every song and everyone around me could hear me singing more than the band. So I whispered notes Anyway…here is my “rant”….The band gets off stage about 9:30 pm. I was assuming the fireworks would start and they would return back on the stage with a great RED WHITE AND BLUE classic song…That didnt happen. Instead we got a CD over the park with a mix of different songs to go along with the fireworks. On one hand I had never seen fireworks done with music, so that was neat. But there is the other hand…I thought it was strange to have a great band 100 feet away and NOT playing live with the fireworks…wasn’t that the whole point? Guess not.
Now to my “am I that girl question?” During the fireworks an over-served man was angry and started to scream obscenities. Let me remind you that we were in the “family kid” area of the park. Kids everywhere. After a few “shut up sit down” comments from surrounding parties…he did in fact “shut up.” So while walking home I told my group that I was about to get up and say something to that man. My brother N Law says “oh stop, don’t be THAT girl.”
Since he is a father to be-I shoved that right back at him saying “so if your daughter was sitting there you wouldnt say something to that man?” My brother n law “shut up” real quick! Then after the walk home, I thought about it and said to myself (self) “I am not that girl….am I?”
What would YOU do?
