WE got your back…

May 14, 2013 by Josh Parish · 1 Comment

I come from a family of females. Of course, at one time, men were in the mix but due to untimely death and divorce I grew up surrounded by strong women. The simple word “exercise” sends off a round of excuses in my family sounding like a firing range! But to conquer the times when motivation lacks, they use the Fitness Buddy System. It’s nothing new or fancy and it works on so many levels. The right buddy or team will motivate and energize you to give it your best! Nothing is worse than … [Read more...]

Am I Really Doing a Couple’s Photo Shoot?

May 2, 2013 by Kathryn Crawford Wheat · 5 Comments

"You fall in love with the most unexpected person at the most unexpected time." Unknown Honestly, I did not expect this to happen at all. When I divorced, I was convinced that I would never have any kind of serious relationship again. I didn’t want to go through the emotional turmoil that I had experienced during my marriage. I was convinced that relationships had to be rough and I was perfectly fine being single for the rest of my life. Then along came this man that turned my … [Read more...]

Who Am I?

Failure-is-not-falling-down-but-refusing-to-get-up

How do you identify yourself?...Career? Family? Others Opinion's? Achievements? There are so many ways we can all choose to describe the real us. I was a very lucky little girl. While my parents divorced at a very early age, there was something they had in common; they both made me believe that anything was possible. They told me I could be anything I wanted. Now there's also something they had in common. Neither one of them, to truly no fault of their own, gave me a road map of how to achieve … [Read more...]

Woman to Woman

April 23, 2013 by Penny Primeaux · Leave a Comment

One of the most important relationships in our lifetime are the ones we share with other women. As women, we have to wear so many hats and carry so much of the world on our shoulders. We often hear how difficult it is to get along with other women. We're often called catty and competitive. While that may be the case in some circles, I wouldn't be where I am today or possibly here at all if it wasn't for my amazing circle of women friends that coddled me when I needed to be protected, kicked … [Read more...]

“Still Standing or Standing Still?”

March 27, 2013 by Penny Primeaux · Leave a Comment

It is so very easy to get into the mode of thinking "at least I'm still standing" after you feel you've just been through a war. Sometimes we become so accustomed to always moving (which isn't necessarily always a bad thing at the right time), that we forget to just stand still and breathe. It has been proven that learning to just inhale and exhale naturally can have a significant impact on many things; blood pressure, metabolism, sleep, eating as well as all of the mental health … [Read more...]

Love at First InSite

February 11, 2013 by Penny Primeaux · Leave a Comment

"Valentine's Day"...A day set aside for the deep historical legend of St. Valentine who became known as a martyr. A man of faith that devoted himself to helping others who were being persecuted for their faith or love. Since 270 A.D., this honorary day has been turned into something much more commercialized. What does Valentine's Day mean to you? I suppose it might depend on where you are in your life and perhaps what your past experiences have been. For those who have lived in epic … [Read more...]

“Stop Surviving…Start Thriving!”

January 28, 2013 by Penny Primeaux · Leave a Comment

Have you ever spent so much time pouring your heart into something and then it just gets wiped away within seconds? No back up, No memory to recover....just gone forever.....After the initial panic dissipated and realizing that I will not be able to retell the story in the same manner I had before, it was clear that I had been given an opportunity to write new inspiring words that perhaps needed to be heard more than the last. Everyday we are given the precious gift to wake. We do so to brand … [Read more...]

Stop Fooling Yourself

January 23, 2013 by Kathryn Crawford Wheat · 7 Comments

I was at the gym the other day standing outside of the group exercise room waiting for my class to start. I happened to overhear 2 ladies talking about getting the weight off that they had put on the previous year. One of them was saying she was going on some fancy diet and spending 2 hours a day at the gym every day. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve overheard similar conversations. Especially in January when all of the newbies show up thinking they will stick to it this time. I’d say … [Read more...]

Uncheck that box please!!

January 21, 2013 by Penny Primeaux · 2 Comments

Have you ever had any form to fill out and you couldn't decide which box to check off because you either didn't fit any of the descriptions or you fit more than one? Why are we forever being boxed in by society or perhaps our own state of mind? We are more than just black, white, Caucasian, Hispanic, Democrat, Republican, Protestant, Catholic, Wiccan, Buddhist, Islamic, Jewish...etc. Why do we allow labels or other people to define who we are and what we believe? Especially on a day like … [Read more...]

Boundaries

January 18, 2013 by Kathryn Crawford Wheat · 3 Comments

It’s your fault if people are walking all over you! WHAT? Wait, that can’t be right. I mean some people are just jerks and think nothing of over stepping boundaries. But that is exactly what I was told all those years ago when my ex and I entered marriage counseling. I was told that I had no clear boundaries and that if I didn’t like the way my husband treated me then it was up to me to set boundaries. Wow! At the time, those words made me really angry. I wanted her to tell him … [Read more...]
