Hello my dear sisters,       Life as we knew it has changed forever, it seems that we will be wearing our masks for a while and some of us will continue to shelter in place either by ourselves or with the people we love.  I know that as women our first inclination is to fix what is broken, but sometimes fixing what is broken requires us to step back and let faith step in, in today's episode we are discussing why believing in something greater than yourself could be the very thing you need to gain some semblance of control over your life, health, and overall well-being. Do me a favor, and share this episode with someone you love, and don't forget to follow the podcast I don't want you to miss an episode.

Hello, my sisters, today's episode may touch a little close to home.  But let me say, that I did not record it to condemn anyone for their parenting style.  It is simple to help you help your children when they ask you why you parented them the way you did.  Believe the questions are coming and I want you to be better prepared than I was, instead of trying to defend your parenting record I want you to try these four tools.   Listen Actively Correct inadequacies with love Show yourself some compassion Beware of guilt We have all made mistakes as parents and while you cannot go back and fix your parenting mistakes, you can help your children to understand why they turned out the way they did and how they can become better people and better parents.  We know that parenting is a lifetime commitment and as our children grow into adults we get to be not just their mom but maybe even their friend.

Hey guys, welcome to another episode of the Welcome to Your Life Podcast.  Today, we are talking about how you can create your own safety bubble and promote healing, love, and connection in your life.  You know many of us rely on others to make us feel safe, and it might be time to ask ourselves if this is fair to them.  As humans, they will ultimately fail us, and then we will feel even more disappointed, abandoned, and alone. I know that the world can feel anything but safe, especially for women or people of color.  But what if you could create your own safety bubble and grow into the woman you were meant to be.  In this episode, I share three simple but powerful tools you can begin to use today.  Including healing, believing in something greater, and creating your village. You cannot control what happens in the world, but you can control how you respond.  Taking control of your healing will help you to stay positive and keep moving when things get tough, and you want to quit. Remember, I am only an email a

My gift to you Beating the Midlife Slump! 10 Strategies to Help You Boost Your Self Confidence, Self-Love, and Self-Care Like so many Americans, I found myself shouting and celebrating the election of Joe Biden as our new President-elect and Kamala Harris as our Vice President-elect. After the most intense election cycle I have ever experienced, I was glad to see it come to an end. As each news outlet proclaimed the dynamic duo the winner, I watched interview after interview, parents of young children and young college students extolled what this historic election meant to them. While I am ecstatic that my grandchildren will see someone who looks like them in the White House.  I found myself thinking about what it would mean to have a woman in mid-life become the most powerful woman in our country, in the world.  And I got even more excited. Not only did she shatter the glass ceiling, but she crushed all our excuses. Too often in my coaching practice, I meet women in midlife who have given up on themselves an

#midlifewomen  #wtyl #fitbabyboomer #atlantapodcast #midlifecrisis #genxwomen While its been 50 years since Congress passed the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, unfortunately, ageism is one of the ism’s that is still sociably acceptable in the United States.  Age discrimination is real. Two out of three workers between ages 45 and 74 say they have seen or experienced age discrimination at work, and job seekers over age 35 cite it as a top obstacle to getting hired. And if you happen to work in the high-tech or entertainment industries, your chances of experiencing age discrimination are even higher.” Older workers have been called names at work like old school, geezer, or grandpa, but many do not report these offenses for fear of rocking the boat and missing out on a promotion. But there are tools you can use to protect yourself against this type of discrimination. Your first step is to make sure that you are doing something you still enjoy, this is part of your mindful self-care strategy. In today's sho

Gaining weight is not something we have to accept just because we are getting older.  In today's podcast I am sharing two tried and true methods that will help you to get back on track.  A study published in the American Journal of Health Promotion followed nearly 200 middle-aged women for three years, tracking eating patterns, overall health, and lifestyle. The researchers found women who did not change their eating habits as they aged were 138 percent more likely to put on about six pounds or more during midlife. You'll learn: Why you should keep a food journal for the next seven days How much exercise you should be getting each week We don't have to settle!  With Peace and Love Renee When I stopped dieting and began to love my body, I lost 43 pounds, reversed my prediabetes, and created a life I love. I help mid-life women lose weight without dieting by helping them to increase their self-confidence, self-love, and self-care without guilt.

My gift to you Beating the Midlife Slump! 10 Strategies to Help You Boost Your Self Confidence, Self-Love, and Self-Care In this episode,  you will learn why you need to add meditation to your self-care toolkit to create peace on demand. Meditation is all about focusing on yourself for a few moments each day, and that can be hard for us as women who feel that focusing on ourselves with all that is happening in the world is a selfish thing to do.  But, if we do not start to become more intentional about taking care of ourselves we will be no good to the people we love. Self- love is not selfish it is necessary if you want to thrive, grow, and have peace in your life. Don't forget to subscribe and share this podcast with someone you love.
