Take Action Every Day

Take Action Every Day
Life can get crazy. 

Especially when you start adding goals to your life and taking action toward achieving them. 

But here’s one thing I know to be true: simply planning your daily tasks and taking action toward your OolaLife is often what will calm the craziness and make you feel more in control. It’s like a pattern interrupt. You’re taking charge of your future.

But don’t just stop with researching and planning. Now’s the time to ensure you do what’s necessary to go the remaining distance.

 Start taking action today.

Grab a 3x5 card and write down three things that will get you closer to one of your major goals. That little card is one of the most powerful and life-changing tools available to you. 

When I first read the book Oola: Finding Balance in an Unbalanced World for Women by authors Dr. Dave Braun and Dr. Troy Amdahl, I realized the power of this daily “3x5 Card Strategy” for getting things done and achieving goals that will change your life.

What would YOUR daily 3x5 card look like?

If you find it’s filled with tasks, errands and calls that don’t really move you closer to your biggest life goals, it’s time to reassess your priorities.


Only by prioritizing can you free up time and energy to be in serious action on goals that matter.
As a Certified Oola Life Coach, I help clients create a list of goals, then prioritize their tasks and—most importantly—stay accountable to accomplishing them week by week. In fact, I’ve joined forces with Dave and Troy to bring my followers the Oola formula via a Transform coaching experience designed to transform your life, your finances, your relationships and more. Message me and we can jump on a call about it.



The Campaign Begins

The Campaign Begins
You get what you focus on. You’ve heard that advice, right? 

It reminds us that, to begin living the life we really want, we have to start doing those things that will get us there. 
If you’ve been following my posts, you know I’m big into getting what you want in all 7 major life areas. It’s something I learned from Dr. Dave Braun and Dr. Troy Amdahl—The OolaGuys—who teach how to create balance in our unbalanced world.

Now, as a Certified Oola Life Coach, I help clients determine what’s not working for them in the areas of fitness, finance, family, field (career), faith, friends and fun – then correct those stressors and bring about the lifestyle, relationships and financial security they need to be happy, balanced and growing.

So what could the OolaLife look like for you? 

For the next few weeks, I’m challenging you to decide, then focus on getting this life you really want.

Let’s Get Started: Decide What You Want
Have you ever thought about the lifestyle, activities, wealth, longevity, family relationships and other parts of a fantastic life that YOU want?
If you haven’t, that’s the first place to start. Why? Because in order to get what you want, you have to KNOW what you want. If you’re going to focus your time and energy, it’s got to be awesome and a major life improvement for you. 
For instance, do you want to . . .
Fitness: Be date-night ready with tons of energy?
Finance: Eliminate all debt and have money to spare?
Family: Have a rockin’ good marriage + amazing kids, too? 
Field: Find a dream job or start a business you love?
Faith: Start an exciting new faith-based project?
Friends: Find new friends and mentors who believe in you?
Fun: Crush those bucket-list adventures you’ve dreamed of?  

Whatever inspires you, why not share it below? (But hey, don't reveal super-personal details!)
For myself, the hamster wheel of living paycheck to paycheck and a health wake up call inspired me!!
To help you achieve your own OolaLife, I’ve joined forces with Dave and Troy – The OolaGuys – to privately coach you and support you via a unique 10-week program designed to transform your life, your finances, your relationships and more. Message me and we can jump on a call about it.

The Campaign Begins

The Campaign Begins
Why does life seem so overwhelming? We set goals and have good intentions, but there never seems to be enough time, money or energy for achieving life’s biggest goals. 

Instead of making progress, our lives seem even more out of balance.
Well, for the next few weeks, I’d like to help you overcome the overwhelm and work on achieving balance in every major life category. 

How will we do that? 
Using a strategy I learned from Dr. Dave Braun and Dr. Troy Amdahl, authors of the bestselling book, Oola: Find Balance in an Unbalanced World: identify where you’re out of balance, then jot down three tasks a day that will move you toward balance in that area of your life.
Here’s an example:
If your finances are a mess and credit card debt is causing you extra stress, your to-do list might look like this:
1. Make a list of all debts in order of total amount due
2. Make an extra payment (today) on the smallest debt while still making minimum payments on the others
3. Investigate ways to make extra money to pay off all debt

START NOW: IDENTIFY WHERE YOU’RE OUT OF BALANCE
You CAN overcome the overwhelm. To start, identify your biggest stressor in each of “The 7 F’s of Oola” (below). Write down your list in a journal or on your smartphone, so you can refer back to it. Are you out of balance in:
Fitness: Excess weight? Poor nutrition? Little exercise?
Finance: Crushing debt? No retirement plan? Too many bills?
Family: Need boundaries? Marriage on life support? 
Field: Career stress? No free time? Low pay or benefits?
Faith: No real relationship with God? Need a daily practice?
Friends: Toxic friends that bring you down? Need mentors?
Fun: No time for fun? Waiting until you’re older or retired?  

Whatever is stressing you, let’s work together to completely transform your life into one that’s balanced, happy and growing. I’ve joined forces with Dave and Troy to bring my followers the Oola formula via a 10-week coaching experience designed to transform your life, your finances, your relationships and more. Message me and we can jump on a call about it.

Then stay tuned for the next few weeks for even more ways to bringing balance to your life . . . Oola style.

Bring Balance to Fitness

Bring Balance to Fitness
It’s already February, and if you celebrated New Year’s Day with a resolution to get healthier in 2021, I have a question: have you stayed on track with your fitness goals? 

One of the best outcomes of creating a balanced life is enjoying the basics: adequate sleep, nutritious food, time for exercise—plus bandwidth to handle longstanding conditions that cause pain, embarrassment or anxiety. 
But you don’t have to arrive at the “ideal life” to enjoy vibrant well-being. Simply starting the journey toward being fit and healthy will boost your energy, immunity and brain function. And a daily walk around the neighborhood delivers noticeable results.

In the time that I’ve been a Certified Oola Life Coach working personally with bestselling authors Dr. Dave Braun and Dr. Troy Amdahl, I’ve discovered that taking action and staying committed to your goals will get you further – faster – than almost any other approach. Fitness is one area where this focus and commitment really pays off. 
To help my followers stay accountable to taking small steps toward their goals, I recently joined forces with Dave and Troy to deliver a 10-week coaching experience designed to transform your life, your finances, your relationships and more. Message me and we can jump on a call about it.

While the Oola coaching formula works to bring balance in 7 major life areas, I have to say: it rocks when it comes to meeting health goals, slimming down, and gaining the confidence that comes from being date-night ready. 
It can help you define the goals you want to achieve, and keep you accountable to doing those things every day that bring about the results you want. 

Check out Oola Coaching and work with me every week to find balance and calm the overwhelm in major life areas like finances, fitness, family, field (career) and more.

Choose Your Dream Lifestyle

Choose Your Dream Lifestyle
Like a lot of people, you may be thinking, “The world feels unbalanced. But your life doesn’t have to be.
In fact, your life (and your lifestyle) can be happy, growing, purpose-filled, and a whole lot of fun…everything you dreamed it could be.

All it takes is planning and achieving one big breakthrough goal that will deliver the lifestyle you want.
The idea of a breakthrough goal is something I learned from Dr. Dave Braun and Dr. Troy Amdahl – authors of Oola: Find Balance in an Unbalanced World. They call this life-changing goal your OolaOne.

Now, as a Certified Oola Life Coach, I help clients tackle what’s not working before we go to work defining your OolaOne, then correcting the stressors and bringing about the lifestyle, relationships and financial security you need to be happy, balanced and growing.

So what could the OolaLife look like for you? 
Fitness: Ideal body? Good nutrition? Optimum health?
Finance: Debt-free? Retirement handled? High net worth?
Family: Happy, growing kids? Marriage blissful and loving? 
Field: Career you love? Earning what you’re worth?
Faith: Daily walk with God? Plenty of time for study?
Friends: Supportive tribe that’s got your back?
Fun: Plenty of time for fun and bucket-list adventures?  

Of course, the 7 areas above come from The OolaGuys. If you’ve been following my past posts, you know that I’ve joined forces with Dave and Troy to bring my followers the Oola formula via a 10-week coaching experience designed to transform your life, your finances, your relationships and more.
