Everyone is talking about “bad” times; the radio news, the TV, your friends, my coaching clients. NOT ME! Why? Because I know that what I focus on I attract. Now some people say to me, “Dr. Cindy, aren’t you just in denial or avoiding reality?” NO! That’s Not MY REALITY! There’s a saying- What you believe you attract. I SAY-What you perceive (how you see the world, how you experience your environment, your world around you) you believe…so you attract just that-what you believe and perceive to be true for you!

What I Learned Last Week: Failure Can Lead To Success!

While I am traveling and at business conferences I often learn many valuable life and business lessons from those I meet along the way and those I see speak at these events. This past week I was in Las Vegas, NV at my friend Ali Brown’s wonderful event “SHINE.” This event was set up to help entrepreneurs Shine in their businesses and in their lives. My biggest take-away was from guest speaker Barbara Corcoran, one of the hosts of the hot TV show "Shark Tank." She spoke about moving forward despite being told the big word - “No” - and being teased and told she was not talented.

What’s in Your Garden?

By Dr. Cindy Brown I was out on my patio the other day looking at my little garden and I noticed my neighbor diligently working in her beautiful fruitful garden next door. She was smiling and whistling as she worked. I see her every day consistently working in it, and on it, and it shows. She has gorgeous flowers and she often shares with me the extra vegetables she harvests. Have you ever noticed that the people who have beautiful, successful gardens are tending to and paying attention to their gardens most all the time?

Relationship Travel Tips: 5 simple ways to avoid upsets!

This article was inspired by many of my own personal traveling discoveries and by the many complaints my clients have shared with me after their traveling jou eys. I coach couples to be sure they get to know each other as a traveling couple and discuss all the details with each other before they leave for their destination. I teach them how to communicate with each other each day, so each listens with an open ear and open heart, avoiding upsetting or hurting each other. Many couples I see do not know how to communicate their wants and needs, nor listen in an effective way.

SO the relationship tip for women is: when you ask a man a question, wait a minimum of 30 seconds b

What do I mean by getting Honestly Naked? I am referring to you becoming conscious and aware of yourself, your challenges and your life… HONESTLY! THEN, dealing with these in an open, authentic fashion….not hiding, or avoiding (being in denial), but instead exploring, sharing and speaking in a way you help yourself and you can help others as well.
