What Needs to Change in Your Life?
As humans, we mostly resist change. We fear the unknown. We like feeling content and safe. But although change is not always a welcome part of life, it is an inevitable part of life.

Love and Magic: How Love Powers Creativity
Love and creativity go hand in hand. That’s why so many poems, songs, novels, and movies are centered around love.

Designing your Ideology
If you want a happier life, you can’t stand by and wait for it to happen to you. You have to create it. You have to be proactive and deliberate, designing the life you want for yourself and taking steps to make your vision a reality. This can feel a little overwhelming, which is why […]
