The other day, Alison and I were having a conversation about her final project for college. She was writing a paper on her relationship with Rob. We talked a little bit about stepfathers and how our relationships with them shaped our lives and the women we are today. Stepfather and real father was a term…
Having sex can be awkward. Oddly enough, talking about sex can be even more awkward.
How do you bring up to your concerns, desires, or ideas to your spouse? What issues should you even talk about? How can you get them to understand you, and how can you possibly understand them?
It’s not easy, because you are two different people, with different histories, different perspectives, and different longings. But guess what? I’m making it much easier for you!
I’ve released a new book titled Pillow Talk: 40 Conversations About Sex for Married Couples. It provides you the framework for having productive conversations on all kinds of topics from kissing to sexual fantasies to frequency to erogenous zones to sexual baggage and much more.
This book is not prescriptive on what exactly your sex life should look like, but rather helps you discuss how you can address the sexual intimacy part of your marriage in a way that honors and satisfies both of you.
For some reading this, that may seem like a tall order. But I can’t think of anything in this book that would be problematic for either a higher-desire spouse or a lower-desire spouse. You each get the opportunity to express where you are and what you think. Of course, you’re often encouraged to not settle for the here-and-now but to pursue healthier and holier sexual intimacy, because that’s God’s design—for both of you and for your marriage.
To learn more about the book, head over to the Pillow Talk page on my site. You’ll find a full description, a sample view, and buy links. For a short time, the Pillow Talk ebook is offered at an introductory price of only $2.99! The print book is coming in early 2019.
I pray this resource will bless many marriages! Happy New Year.

No matter how much you get done a daily basis…
or how long your checked off to-do list is…
… procrastination is a challenge even the best and most organized of us face.
As a result, some of us end our days having not gotten done even close to the amount we were hoping – and this can affect our productivity going forward! Feeling defeated leads to a lack of motivation – and the vicious cycle continues.
I get it, I’ve been there too.
And guess what? You’re in exactly the right place — and today’s episode of She Takes on the World is for you.
Jim Kwik is back for the final episode of the Kwik Habits series, and this time around he’s talking about his productivity hacks, how he avoids procrastination, and keeps what matters to him the most in his view through it all.

This week, try one of Jim’s many techniques for overcoming procrastination and dropping into your most productive state.
Hopefully with these rituals you’ll start to develop long-term, consistent productivity that carries you through your biggest and most important goals this year and for the next 10 years of your business.
And no matter what, remember to be kind to yourself, especially when you catch yourself in a spiral like procrastination.
If you’re kind to yourself when you don’t live up to your highest of expectations, you’re more likely to improve next time.

As a Medical Intuitive I get the honor of helping people heal. I love paying attention to people that share their lives with me and helping them understand how their choices affect how they feel and the quality of their health.
All of the things we choose to say yes and no to in a day ultimately affect our health and well being. There are a few questions I regularly ask my clients to help them find healing and balance.
Where are you giving your energy and focus? What is giving energy and focus back to you? As simple as these questions are, so many physical imbalances and health issues can be caused by living a life that is depleting.
So often we forget that it is OUR responsibility to rebuild our energy and rejuvenate our bodies and minds — it doesn’t just happen on its own. When we notice our body squeaking with headaches, constipation, fatigue, and insomnia — it is our bodies way of saying,” Hello! Remember me? Can I please get some TLC?”
How many times this week have you said you are stressed, or tired, or beat? And how many of those times did you stop to take a deep breath and ask yourself what you could do to rebuild or rejuvenate yourself? Imagine your body as having a battery – just like your cell phone. Start taking inventory of how you’re feeling! Don’t expect your body to recharge itself.
Think to yourself, “What gives me energy? What is taking away my energy?”
I often ask clients to make a list of things that are rejuvenating and a list of things that are depleting in their day to day lives. So often the depleting list is incredibly long while the rejuvenating list is pretty short. I remind clients that once they notice something starts to feel depleting its important to balance it out with something rejuvenating.
The more you start to pay attention and commit to balancing out your energy, the more you will see your health balancing out! I promise you!
Days in our lives can blur together quickly. When we remember to make the day matter by taking a few moments to rejuvenate ourselves, it’s a simple way of expressing gratitude to our bodies for all that they give and do for us on a daily basis.
We are so blessed to be alive on this wonderful Earth!
Huge hugs!
