YOU HAVE THE SPOTLIGHT

As the year comes to a close it feels really great to share how grateful I am.

This year has been one with wins and losses.

If you ever had a close family member or friend that passed on you know what Im talking about.

It sucks.

On the other side of pain is the balance of pleasure.

Pleasure in knowing life has its ups and downs and its always about how I can handle it.


The meaning we give everything is our reality.

So today my vision is that we all end out the year with reflection of what was amazing and what we could have left out if it was possible, and know we did the best we could.

Yes, I can hear some people saying did you really do your best? 

But who cares what others say.

All i can say is that I passionately love my family, my friends, my clients, my entrepreneurial crazies, the products and services I share, the home I love, the man of my dreams, my dancing partners and the health Im blessed with!

This is the year of being a Badass Beautiful Woman!

Take a few minutes and write down what you are grateful for and why.... and please share it with us all..... We all need to learn, grow and praise each other on.

Heres' to you 2015.....Its going to be EPIC!!!

WANT TO FEEL BETTER? WEAR PINK ROSE LIPSTICK!

I don't know about you but when i feel
like i need a sprit lift, I go to wearing
some type of cool pink lip color.


I like the style that has a little brown in the
pink and some rose undertone. The best
reason is my skin looks brighter, my eyes
more clear and its fun!

Sometimes when I keep wearing 
the same style of colors over and over
again i get bored. 

So I brought into our OLA Makeup collection
this gorgeous color called GRACE.

The definition of GRACE is:

simple elegance or 
refinement of movement.

To keep it simple, use Grace elegantly....enjoy!

MAKEUP OR NO MAKEUP?


Makeup or No Makeup?

Why is it so hard for most of us, me included at times, to go out without some form of makeup?

Is it because we were told when we hit some pivotal time in our history that we had flaws?
Did we see a magazine when were were teens and decided we were not enough?

Or did someone we trusted just come out suddendly in our innocence and said " you look so bland, you need some makeup" and that comment stuck?

I remember growing up with my wonderful mom who owned a beauty salon in Los Angeles and was a hairdresser ( thats the name they used back in the 60's ) that she surrounded us with beauty products, hair products, pictures, magazines. Everything you can imagine around looking pretty.

I can also remember exactly the day i saw what I thought was the perfect beautiful face from a sales lady in a dress shop. She had the perfect eyeliner on in black. Her face was so smooth and pretty.  I must have been around 12. 

It was so powerful that I can still remember that day. Seriously? Something so simple that I still remember her eyes? Was that the day I decided that makeup meant something?

Maybe so. 

There is nothing as easy as being inspired. I think that was the day I knew that beauty is in the eye of the beholder and that a little makeup doesn't hurt a thing.

In fact, I believe now after 25 years in the beauty and transformation world that beauty and what you say to yourself can cause or setback your results. Iv seen and worked with 1000's of faces and the one thing I cant get over is how many woman keep saying negative BS  self talk when they look in the mirror.

With or without makeup.

So heres what i believe. You must love who you are without makeup. Period.

And….You must love who you are with makeup

Sounds simple?

Try This 5 Step Test:

1. Go a whole day without any makeup, lip color, foundation, anything with color correction.

2. Everytime you look at yourself in the mirror, a refection in a window or take a selfie you tell yourself   I Am Badass Beautiful'!

3. Do this every hour!  I know it sounds insane but trust me, this is a feel good exercise…and if it doesnt feel good by the fifth hour, you will. You are going to be a pro at owning your words.

4. Get a buddy to check in with or write to me here or your journal and share your experience. If you can post a video that would so super cool!

5. Next day wear your most  beautiful makeup look you can think of and enjoy how amazing it feels to have a choice!!! 


Makeup or no makeup, its all a conversation you makeup in your head. ...Its what you decided is true based on what others say is true, what you say is true and what feels right.

Surround yourself with positive people. Yes i know, everyone says that..BUT IT WORKS!!!

Study what works for you, then learn new tricks and tips to feed that mind of yours that seems to always find a flaw…..then go fix it…if you cant fix it then learn to look in the mirror just as you did in this exercise and tell yourself 

I Am One Badass Beautiful Soul!!!

BBTV Beauty, Brain and Branding News...


When I think of how important it is to stay focused i rememebr a time in a training room that this phrase was spoken. "One hundred percent is available one hundred percent of the time".                                At first i didnt really get it.

 How on earth can we be fully present all the time in a world filled with so much distractions, including self distractions??

I realized that its the fact that is it possible. Really? Yes.. p o s s i b l e!

So what does it take to get in the game of 100% Club? Here are just a  few tips I use:


1. Get clear on what you want to be fully present for. 
The problem we fall into is too many things are going on in our head all at once.
Pick whats most important right now. Not in the future but at this moment. Keep
it simple so you can get fully present without distractions.

2. Ask yourself what's most important about this?
Powerful answers create urgency. If your answer isnt compelling its most likely
that you will just go for it half ass and that doesnt get you 100%. Create energy
around what you say you want. A vision board, declaring to the world socially or intense words in
your journal, it doesnt matter, just answer the question with power.

3. Dont dwell on other things, stay focused.
Being fully present happens in a nano second. Stop your mind chatter into the future.
When you are present all that matters is this moment. Then the next moment do it again.
If you need to breath deeeply to calm your mind, take a few breaths and check in. Getting
scattered happens because of loosing being present.

4. Enjoy the feeling that freedom of living in the now gives you!
When I live in the now it takes all my anixety away from the picture.
Knowing you can always go back to being not present is OK. Life is about
balance and harmony.

5.  Block out a 10 minute break to get present about a one specific goal or vision.
When you can measure a slot of time that is being used for one area of your life,
sometimes you get powerful incites into other areas you were stuck in. When this
happens its a great idea to journal what you had pop into your mind to see how
your mind saw it.

By taking the time to realize you are not fully present,  running in circles, or you have deadlines that seem to zap your flow of creativity and then making time to get present, chill down,  your life can have
additonal clariety and purpose without as much stress and pressures.

Enjoy the beauty of living a life playing full out, calling your own shots and feeling
the Badass Beauty that you truely are, without all the crap that can get in your way.

You own this!!!
