The Blue Flame Warrior Woman Rises Once More
Oh yes... I am on fire! For those who are not familiar with the Blue Flame Warrior Woman, this is a visualization I use. It is used when I am focused and on fire with determination to take myself to the next level. I seriously, need to create an image of what I envision in my mind.

The Evolution of Me... As an Author
Earlier this year, I struggled with marketing my writing. I will always write, it is who I am and how I breath. My writings are my whispers to myself. I took down all my social media loosing 40k followers, and took my books off of Amazon.

To Bot or Not To Bot
There are times in life, when you need to step back and look at the direction you are taking, with a new set of eyes to gain a new perspective about the direction you are taking. In April, I decided to take down my books from Amazon, and rethink my writing approach. Book sales had pretty much flat lined. Social media was more of a time consumer, than a marketing approach. As Einstein stated, "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results."

Motivation Challenges Navigation Update
With the first quarter completed for 2021, it is always a time for me to reflect on the accomplishments of the quarter and to see what improvements need to be made for the next quarter. In doing so, I realized that I was needing to make my thirty-day motivational challenges easier to navigate to.

Starting Over - Let No Tears Fall
Starting over is never easy, but I have always found that when a new direction lays before you, that valuable lessons can be learned. Over the past month, I lost almost 40k individuals who followed me, when I decided to leave Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.

The Strategy of Writing
The strategy of my writing is that I wear different hats. There are times when I am a manager and giving my "employee side of me" deadlines to meet. There are times when I am the CEO and holding my manager side of me accountable. I wear many employee hats. I am a UX Designer, Marketing Rep, Social Media Rep, Visual Designer, Scrum Master, Product Owner, Sales Manager and copy editor. And then of course... there are the stock holders side of me, that holds us all accountable.

The Art of Defining Me Workbook
It is a workbook that shares with you the process that I took to take myself to a blank canvas state and deprogram myself from the cult blueprint. The process of becoming the master architect to rebuild myself. To be the master artist and to create the woman I desired to be. Stroke by stroke of the brush on the canvas.
It will be this format that I will use for The Ember Within series. These are my thirty day motivational posts.
