Pep Talks

Welcome to today's PEP Talk - Misery is Optional. What do you believe about your current circumstances and your future? Do you believe you will heal from a physical or emotional issue? Do you believe you will get the promotion you have been working to attain? Or are you someone who believes in worst case scenarios? Do you believe you will ‘never’ get well? Do you believe you are doomed to work in your current dead-end position? Our mindset impacts how we feel physically and emotionally. It can also impact the course of our lives.  In this month’s PEP Talk I discuss the power of your mindset- what you believe.  A belief is deeper than a thought – it is something you feel at your core and it has the power to transform your life. Please take a few minutes to listen to this month’s PEP Talk - Misery is Optional and I encourage you to do one thing today purposefully to attain true PEP for Life!

Welcome to today's PEP Talk - Listen.  I believe listening is one of the most treasured gifts that we can give to another person. It is free and it is simple to do. Yet, if we are truly honest with ourselves, how often do we genuinely listen to the other person who is talking to us? When others are talking, it is very common to be lost in our own thoughts about what is going on in our own world or possibly being distracted by the art of multitasking - checking the phone. When someone feels as though another is truly listening to him/her that person feels heard and feels valued. This is a very validating experience that can lift a person’s spirit and it can positively impact self-worth. This occurs not only for the person who was listened to, this occurs for the person who was listening as well. I encourage you to be mindful when you are communicating with others. Take note of whether you are sincerely listening or if you are only half listening because you are distracted by something else. Thank you so mu

Welcome to today’s PEP Talk – Control. There is a difference between someone who wants to be in control of their environment/situation/life versus someone who wants to control another human being. If you would use the adjective, “controlling,” to describe yourself or someone you know, please take a moment to listen to this month’s PEP Talk - Control.  You might be surprised by what you learn. Thank you for joining me today and I encourage you to do one thing purposefully to attain true PEP for Life.
