This week was a fat week. totally hideous, I sh*t you not. I actually asked the Circle K not to serve me if I picked up any mini Snickers, bloated & grumpy I did not feel good. The chocolate inhalation is always the giveaway.... So possessed was I by essence of sloth on Wednesday that I couldn't even practice giving my mat side eye like it was judging me!!! & boy was my self talk good that day NOT.

Then the lower belly pain set in the cerebral lights went on & oh yeah that time of the month. Bali is too hot to snuggle with a hot water bottle. Periods suck they are a source of annoyance & yeah sure we can deal with feeling like shit but the necessary kit tampons etc are still an expensive punishment. Not sure why we (read men) still think these things are luxury items a its a bloody girl tax in full effect. We (the co…

What does a baby have to do with your business and with business coaches?Well for many of us our business is like another child to us.When you have children you will remember what it was like when you just had your first baby.For me, it was like this….With my first one, I felt very insecure, I wanted to know for sure that what I did was right, I read books, I asked my mother and for the monthly check-ups, I always went to the baby consultation bureau. In my country, they are THE authority for monitoring the growth and well being of your baby.When the visit came closer I prepared the book with all the questions they wanted to know about my daughter. This was the book where they monitored her growth. I always took it with me. When I wanted to know something they were the people I would talk to and I took their advice very serious…

Rising Brand of the year, how did that feel? Why do you think you won?

It was an honor to receive the 2020 Rising Brand of the year from The Los Angeles Business Journal presented by fashion icon Ilsa Metchek. This award is for everyone who has been part of our communal growth. It felt great and we appreciated it very much. The Los Angeles fashion scene is a very tight-knit community intertwined with manufacturers, fabricators, media, models, events, etc. SITA Couture is very proactive within the community and within the industry. We have been giving back since conception and I think people see this involvement and passion and want to celebrate it.

If you are like most of us out there, 2020 has not been friendly with sales. So how are you preparing for Black Friday this year? I have some ideas that could help you shape your content for the upcoming mega sales event. With businesses vying for customers' attention, the competition is going to be intense. Hence your content should hit the mark and stand out from that of your competitors.

Provide a sneak peekBlack Friday sale events are on the radar of every retailer and buyer in the USA. So don't delay-start promoting your sale well in advance. Create a short preview that gives your customers a quick peek into the kind of deals and offers they would enjoy on Black Friday. You can share short videos or visuals to convey the same.

Create a gift guideBlack Friday is a great time to invest in good content as the spending spree lasts…

We all have those days. You are out of coffee, you tripped over the dog and now your toe has it’s own heartbeat, and you are fresh out of “get it done.” Don’t worry, I’ve got you.

Here’s what you do. Pick out two or three recent customers/clients, and send them a little email/text/whatever.

“Hey Laura,

Quick favor? Would you write me a google review about your recent experience with me? It doesn’t have to be anything profound, just a few words about what success looked/felt like to you. I would be ever so grateful! Here is the link: (insert link here).”

Now go and read Laura’s words. You helped another human. You gave of yourself, and the result was success for another person! Now get out there and add value to another person’s life today. Because you can, and it’s what you wanted to do in the first place!<…

In these uncertain times, it is a comforting thought to know that you have support. A support system can be used by you to gain support in your private or work life. Support systems are the foundation of an individual. For a professional, it is important to see those within these systems for who they are versus whom you want them to be. "Don't look for love in a public place."

How is a professional expected to survive? Many professionals appear not to show up as themselves because they are wounded within the work environment. By a colleague who runs off with a good idea who takes and receives the credits for it. Or someone who systematically works against them, making the easy things difficult. This behavior hinders them in their progress and makes them appear nonfunctional in the workpla…

Family lineage prayer: Today I pray for all women who are lost, need to find themselves, are experiencing relationship problems and haven’t yet found their true soul purposes. I pray for those who have struggled and those who have passed and never took the chance to release all wounds they carried within from many generations. I send forgiveness and I forgive myself too for having been on this trip. I pray for healing and love to enter all women’s hearts.

I happened to meet some of my sisters and soul mates on the other side, women who have suffered the pain and abrupt death because of the imbalance in the masculine spirit here on this planet. My soul has been through the same path and I saw thousands of those who have been supporting my incarnation here on this planet to help other women remember who they rea…

For those of us who don’t consider ourselves skinny people, they can seem so mysterious or have an almost magical ability to stay thin. We mistakenly believe that they don’t struggle with issues like emotional eating the way the rest of us do. But the habits of thin people can be modeled after and duplicated. If you model thin people’s habits and general attitude about food, you can start losing weight and become one size smaller.

The general attitudes of skinny people about food is much different than the rest of us who often struggle with losing weight. Overweight people tend to be preoccupied with food, focusing on how, when and the amount of food they eat. They tend to think of food in terms of a diet where there are restrictions galore. They tend to define and label food choices as either good or bad, this or that. Those of us who struggle with …
