2016 My year in review

Well, 2016 is officially over. Overall I would say it was a fantastic year! There are things I would change, but for the most part it was wonderful.

Looking back through my blog, my twitter account and my Instagram I was reminded of so many great memories from the year. Here's my list of top moments (both good and bad)

1.  Going to Paris with my daughter (and son for part of it). <3
2.  Going to the Bahama's with my husband for our 7th anniversary. <3
3.  Getting my teeth fixed.
4.  My cousin passing away at 43.
5.  Being a member of Leadership Prince William Class of 2016!
6.  So many fun bunco nights with girlfriends.
7.  Spring Vision Retreat with Andria Corso!
8.  Quality time with family.
9.  Fantastic networking events where I made new friends and strengthened my existing relationships.
10. A whole year of LOVING my job. The people I work with, the job I do, just everything about it!
11. Another successful trip to White Lake, NC with the whole family! <3
12. So many great days, nights, weekends & motorcycle rides with my hubby and our friends throughout the entire year.
13. Fantastic Girls Weekend with my two bestest,est, est, est friends, Pam & Gigi.
14. We started 2016 with two of our best friends, Chip & Gigi, & went on two vacations with them.
15. I was extremely successful in my goals this year. I blew up my business goals, got an assistant, and worked hard at organization and self development. I also finished my continuing education classes and as always loved learning and refreshing my knowledge. Insurance is a very complicated and detailed field.
16. I forgot one! I turned 48, which is fantastic, however my body/metabolism changed entirely. Nothing I did before works anymore and my energy level dropped for a couple of months - so I'm on a quest to find what works for the 48+ me.

My favorite part is looking back at who I was a year ago and realizing how much I've changed.


As you begin 2017, take a moment to remember the good and bad memories from 2016 and then start focusing on the new year ahead! It's going to be a spectacular year! #Iheart2017

It's really ok to take a break

Sometimes when you're not motivated it's because your literraly burnt out. And that's ok. When you've been doing too much for too long, it's ok to take a break. However, before you start that break, write down some of the things you're going to do after the break.. This helps to keep the things you want to do at the top of your mind without feeling guilty that you're taking a break. So what do I mean by taking a break? It can be ... in any form you desire and/or can afford. We'd all love our break to be a long vacation to someplace we really want to go, but it can be as simple as taking a walk or even spending an entire weekend binge-watching your favorite shows. Just make sure it's a plan and that you know when you've had you're break, you're going to start on that "thing" you've been putting off. MW Copyright 2017

Re-evaluating Social Media in my life

What is the purpose of social media in your life? This is the question I've been pondering for a while now. What do each of these outlets bring to me, give to me, or help me with? Facebook Twitter Instagram Snap Chat Pinterest  LinkedIn Alignable  So many people say they're using social media for their business, while others say you have to be using social media for your business. I believe that's true in some businesses - especially if you're selling a product like t shirts, jewelry, weight loss plans, or other tangible items. But, I'm not sure which really help in the service and intangible industries. With that said, I'm an insurance agent. I sell a piece of paper that gives you piece of mind and aggravation because you are obligated to buy it. Is anyone really interested in reading blogs or articles about insurance? Even insurance humor is mainly funny to insurance people. So where does that leave me with my posts? I have used it in a mostly pers...

There are only 24 hours in a day!

I've learned that I can only do so much. My business is booming, my marriage is flourishing, my personal health and fitness goals are in tip-top shape, but there is so much more going on in life. Spending time with family, spending time with friends, working on projects inside and outside of the house. Life gets completely crazy at times and it feels like the list of things to do, places to be, people to see never ends. The result: some things get put on the back burner. Like blogging. It's something I do to keep track of what I'm doing, where I am on my goals, and hopefully to motivate a few people at the same time. Here's where I'm at; Business: I am still out there networking, I have made so many new friends and am building great relationships.  I am still working on single-tasking. I KNOW that it's the key to getting things done for me. However, I still have my days where I am so busy that I lapse back into my habit of multi-tasking. I do realiz...
