The Quest Chronicles: Life’s Lessons It’s a beautiful thing to have a reflective perspective on life and its journey. We all start with big dreams, but the path to fulfilling them can be winding and unpredictable. The key is to stay open to life’s lessons, accept its unpredictability, and embrace the changes that come along the way.

Everyone’s journey is unique, and sometimes, unexpected paths lead to the most meaningful and rewarding experiences. Mistakes, detours, and challenges are all part of the process—what truly matters is how we respond to them and how we make the most of every moment. This is your life, make the best of it.

The Quest Chronicles: Thanksgiving Time

on November 26, 2024 Health & Wellness The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: Thanksgiving Time It’s that time of the year to give special thanks! Time to spend time with family and friends while stuffing your face. This is a tradition for many people but not everyone. To some, it’s just another day and that’s ok. You have to live your life for you and if you end up spending today eating fast food and watching tv; more power to you.

As for others, Thanksgiving may be exceptionally difficult due to the passing of loved ones. Thanksgiving evokes a wide range of emotions for different people, and it’s important to acknowledge that not everyone celebrates the same way or feels the same during the holidays.

Your reminder to be kind and respectful to others, regardless of how they spend their day, is a beautiful way to foster understanding and empathy. Whether surrounded by family or alone, the spirit of gratitude and mindfulness can still shine through. Wishing you a peaceful and fulfilling holiday, no matter how you choose to spend it.

The Quest Chronicles: Variations Of Love

on November 19, 2024 Health & Wellness The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: Variations Of Love Love, in its many forms, is something we all seek in different ways—whether it’s romantic, familial, or even platonic. But often, the way we seek it or the way we articulate our desires might not align with what we truly need. Sometimes, what we ask for can come with unexpected lessons, challenges, or consequences.

When we ask for love or connection, we might envision it in a particular way, but reality often has its own plan. The way love arrives might not be how we imagined it, and it could require us to grow, adjust, or face parts of ourselves that we haven’t fully dealt with. This can be both beautiful and difficult, but it forces us to be clear about what we really need versus what we think we want.

Being specific in our desires and being ready for all possible outcomes is key. But being open to what love, or connection, brings—even if it doesn’t fit our expectations—can lead us to the kind of growth and understanding that we may not have anticipated, but might be exactly what we need.

Are we truly ready for all the outcomes, though? That’s the real question. Sometimes we don’t know until we face them.

The Quest Chronicles: Time To Recharge

The Quest Chronicles: Time To Recharge Mental resets are incredibly important for staying grounded, and everyone has their own way of finding calm. When things get overwhelming, some people take long walks, others meditate, or even just sit in silence with no distractions. It’s all about finding what works best for you.

For me, I find peace in the simplicity of reflection,like how listening to a piece of music can trigger a sense of emotional clarity. There’s something beautiful in how small, intentional moments can help reset the mind and body.

Taking these breaks doesn’t always mean doing something big or flashy. Sometimes, it’s just pausing to take a few deep breaths, or even just stepping away from our screens for a bit. It’s amazing how much even those brief pauses can help us feel more centered and ready to tackle things with a clearer perspective. What’s your go-to way to recharge when life gets hectic?

The Quest Chronicles: Election Day

on November 5, 2024 Health & Wellness The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: Election Day Elections can feel like a game, dividing people into winners and losers. The way elections can create divisions is rooted in the deep-seated emotions and identities people attach to political beliefs. When a candidate or party loses, supporters may feel not just disappointment, but a sense of personal loss, leading to heightened tensions. This atmosphere can sometimes breed hostility or fear about the future, especially when people feel their values or way of life are at stake.

The aftermath often brings heightened emotions, and it’s crucial for everyone to approach discussions with empathy and understanding. While change can be unsettling, it also presents opportunities for growth and unity. Focusing on common goals and finding ways to bridge divides will be essential as we navigate this sensitive period. Let’s hope for constructive dialogue and a commitment to moving forward together, regardless of the outcome.

The Quest Chronicles: Best Version Of Yourself

on October 22, 2024 Health & Wellness The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: Best Version Of Yourself I recently celebrated my birthday and I truly enjoyed myself. A day responding to family, friends, eating good food, relaxing & reflecting. Celebrating life goes beyond parties; it’s about appreciating each moment, embracing experiences, and being grateful for the journey. Recognizing the beauty in everyday life can be a powerful way to honor our existence.

In Addition to celebrating; I always reevaluate my life. What have I accomplished? What new goals am I trying to complete in the upcoming year? Reflecting on accomplishments and setting new goals can be incredibly motivating. It’s a chance to assess your growth and envision what you want to achieve in the coming year. Taking the opportunity to appreciate the journey and set intentions for the year ahead is a powerful practice.

My birthday is my new year and I set resolutions. Striving to be a better version of myself every day and every year is the mission. I view my birthday as a time for reflection and goal-setting. I encourage you all to do the same. My approach to personal growth and gratitude. I hope to motivate others to embrace their own paths. Here’s to another year of becoming the best version of yourself!

The Quest Chronicles: Time to Reset

The Quest Chronicles: Time to Reset Everyday has something to offer. It may be a raise at your job, a special outing or even an unwelcoming headache. That’s how unpredictable life is. Everyday is it’s own unique rollercoaster. It’s all about how you handle it.

When I wake up, I make it my business to reset. Sometimes by the end of the day, I may feel overwhelmed and stressed out so I allow myself the chance to regroup the next morning. The past is the past even if it’s a few hours ago.

Do whatever you have to do to motivate yourself. Treat everyday as if it’s new years. New year, new me, or New day, and it’ll be ok. Cheesy but you get the picture. Time to reset so what’s the new plan for today?

The Quest Chronicles: Bad Business

on September 17, 2024 Health & Wellness The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: Bad Business Being an entrepreneur, I’ve been asked if I ever refused to work with certain clients.. The answer is yes. I don’t work for a company so I’m not forced to work with whomever comes through the door. Yes, I love to have clients, helping others and building my brand but at what cost?

All money is not good money. I’m not desperate enough to deal with anyone to make a quick dollar. Based on the way they operate; it’s not worth my time, energy nor peace. That’s why people have to be very mindful of who they work with. Some friendships and relationships have ended because of bad business transactions.

I’m a very patient and understanding business woman so that’s why many want to work with me. At the same time, just because I’m nice, I will not allow anyone to take advantage or try to pull a fast one on me. Don’t be so money hungry that you allow the customer who assumes they’re always right to walk all over you. You’re the boss so handle your business. Your brand is counting on you.

The Quest Chronicles: Small Adjustments

on September 3, 2024 Health & Wellness The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: Small Adjustments: Everyday is a new day to figure out this thing we call life. We have our good days and our bad days. Let’s be real, sometimes the bad days feel like it overshadows the good ones. It could feel so stressful that trying to fix the bad days doesn’t seem realistic. It’s always one thing after another and you can’t catch a break.

Well that’s exactly what you need; a break. A moment to breathe, relax and re-structure. You don’t need to always make drastic changes in order to get positive results. Sometimes you just need to make a few small adjustments to get you started.

Go to sleep an hour early so you can have more rest. Take an hour to do research instead of scrolling on your phone. Grab a bottle of water instead of a bottle of soda. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Those small adjustments will make an improvement in your life before you know it. All you have to do is make the first small adjustment.

The Quest Chronicles: My Inner Peace

on August 20, 2024 Health & Wellness The Quest Chronicles add comment

The Quest Chronicles: My Inner Peace As children we tend to automatically become friends with our siblings, cousins, neighborhood friends and classmates. As we grow older, we add on co-workers and social media friends. This is the life we are accustomed to and we tend to adapt.

You have to also remember that you are an adult. Yes, we may be related, go to the same school or work together but I do not owe you anything. It’s ok to outgrow your friends. People forget that they are an unique individual like no other. We have a connection but a disconnect at the same time.

I have the right to protect my inner peace and I am ok with putting up walls if I need to protect my inner peace. I don’t owe anyone anything. If we are not growing in the right direction outside of our initial connection that’s all it will ever be. I have to take care of ME first. My Inner peace is of value! Do you know your worth?
