Miss Modish- Mojo Maker

Decisions, decisions...

Last week I shared this random thought on social media and it seemed to strike a chord in people:

mojo note to self: Stop sacrificing your own projects & desires to put everyone else first. Don't be the contractor living in a shitty house!

Can you relate?

I've been feeling stuck and procrastinatey for months now with anything having to do with making the changes I know I need to make for my own website, for my own business... and I think I finally realized why.

Because I haven't made a clear decision about any of it yet!

Kitty Photo Friday!

It's a dark and dreary day here, but I'm glowing on the inside, just like this photo!

I've been busy with awesome clients this week, busy manifesting front row parking spots :) and I'm beyond thrilled to have a special guest post featured on one of my favorite blogs today, Tiny Buddha!

In the post I share my journey through stress and overwhelm and what led me to my breaking point, and breakthrough point, of deciding to turn my life around. Check it out! I share 7 tips I've learned for helping you love where you're at right now.

Life is bustling and bubbling up all around me and I'm so glad to be in the middle of it all.

Wishing you much love and mojo to carry into the weekend!

Sending some love the old fashioned way

Happy Valentine's Day! I'm joining in on the Felix Doolittle love note writing challenge, which starts today. They're encouraging people to give 1-7 hand-written notes a week to their loved ones over the next month, and I love a good excuse to get sappy and let people know I care, so I'm joining in!

I'm going to be sending hand-written notes of love, luck, thanks and mojo out every week over the next 4 weeks (and who knows, maybe even longer!) to the people who mean the most to me.

Kitty Photo Friday!

When it's kind of slow around here on the blog, you can bet it's bustling behind the scenes. And that's exactly what's been going on this week- I'm a little up to my eyeballs in projects but happily so.

But of course I'm planning more special goodies for you here this month! During February on the blog, I'm going to be focusing on how to romance your customers and the media into loving what you offer!

I'm starting next week with a new mo' mojo podcast on how to find and attract your ideal client, a subject I've spoken with people about in almost every mojo session I've done, so I realize it's really something people need to hear and start thinking about.

And I also wanted to thank you all for your great feedback on my post last week on how to get in the mindset for gettin' out there! (If you missed it last week, check it out!) I'm working on a pretty printable version of the advice from that post so you can pin it up on your walls. Coming soon :)

Giant e-hugs to you all until next week,

Dear Morning,

One little tidbit you may not know about me- I majored in poetry, of all things, in college. But I don't think I've actually sat down just to write a poem since, which was almost 10 years ago now! (damn, those white hairs I'm getting ain't lyin...)

So it was a pretty strange experience of having, what appears to be a poem, literally spill out of me this morning, from nowhere, for no reason. I felt compelled to write and a poem came out.

And since poems are meant for sharing, it felt right to share it here with you!

And now, for something completely different (if you get that reference, you're tops in my book!)

Dear Morning,

I like you slow and easy,

just like this,

so I can settle down

into you.

Curl into your crevices and

open space.

So I can revel, for awhile,

in daydream

and possibility.

Kitty Photo Friday!

Happy Friday! TGIF indeed today, it's been a looong week. But at least it was a long week of gettin' stuff done!

And I have been getting into the new VINE app- have you checked it out yet? It's like instagram but with 6 second looping videos. You can check out one of my videos to hear a little piano and see some kitties in action!

The app is pret-ty buggy right now, but I have hope they'll work out all the kinks. There's just something about the addition of movement and sound that I am really loving! It's cool to get glimpses into people's lives thru photos, but getting to hear what they're hearing, and what they sound like, and see what they're seeing in a new way adds a whole new dimension that's really engaging. And easily addictive (watch out!)

And it's been fun to see so many people getting SO creative with it already! If you're on there, follow me @Miss Modish- I'd love to get a little glimpse into your world! (that's mildly creepy, I realize, but you know you like spying into other people's lives too ;)

Now, I'm off to resist all temptation to just lounge around and eat and play piano all day, because that's about the energy level I'm at... we'll see. Resistance can be futile, especially on Fridays...

Happy weekend to you!!
