February 9, 2012 · Leave a Comment

7.5 Week Update

November 30, 2011 · Leave a Comment

It’s been a little over week since my first OBGYN visit. This first visit was simply to confirm whether I truly am pregnant.  I met with a nurse-midwife, and I didn’t realize that she was going conduct an ultrasound scan.  What an amazing surprise! I heard and saw my baby’s heartbeat! Ahhhh! I can’t even [...]

Holy crap, I’m pregnant!

For months now, my husband and I have been preparing our bodies for pregnancy.  We applied many of Gabriela Rosa’s tips to optimize our health & fertility.  I also invested in the Alcat food sensitivity/intolerance test, which was the best investment ever! We saw this prenatal period as an [...]

Public speaking…in front of 4,000 people!

October 2, 2011 · Leave a Comment

If you told me years ago that I’d one day speak on stage in front of 4,000 people at the Javits Center in NYC, I never would have believed it. I’ve always been pretty social, but not many know that I was also a professional people-pleaser who deathly feared being judged. So, having [...]

I had the pleasure of visiting San Diego for the first time last week. I was there to conduct a wellness workshop & teach an intenSati class for an inspiring group of women leaders during their week-long leadership program.

When in France, Eat like the French!

September 10, 2011 · Leave a Comment

I finally had a chance to upload the video I created from our trip to Paris last fall. As you’ll see, there was nothing “low-fat” or “low-calorie” about this trip, yet I ended up going home 5 lbs. lighter.

As I often tell my clients, HOW you eat is just as important as WHAT you [...]

“Being” Powerful

August 24, 2011 · Leave a Comment

Today, Forbes came out with their “100 Most Powerful Women” list.  I read all about it while on the elliptical machine at the gym (gotta love the iPad!). The methodology that Forbes used to rank the women was based on the following three metrics: 1) Financial worth  2) Media exposure (social & traditional) 3) [...]
