Stop & Smell The Roses

As I wrap up 2022, I’ve been spending time reflecting on My Vision & Plan for the year.


Doing so, I’ve asked MySelf, …


Did I…

  • Follow My Vision & Written Plan?

  • Maintain focus on BEing the Best Version of Me, MySelf & I?

    • In All Ways & Always?

  • Honor My Essence?


As I sat Simply Being…

Drinking a cup of Coffee…

And Centering on My Breath…

In My Mind's Eye, I heard…


‘Z, Celebrate! Stay your Course… However, STOP SIS & Smell the Roses…’


At that moment, I grabbed My Journal and began to write out My Roses!!! Here’s what I wrote…


As a Woman, I

  • Published My 2nd Book

  • Maintained & Sustained a LifeStyle Centered in Wellness…

  • Showed Up for Me, MySelf & I

  • Maintained the Commitment to Manage My Blog & Business

  • Grew TRConsulting…

  • Cultivated Aligned Relationships

  • Engaged in My Life by HD Strategy


As a Wife, I…

  • Responded to My Husband in Love… Even when that meant being Silent..

  • Co-Created the ‘Space in Between’…

  • ‘Mirrored’ to maintain Understanding, and Clarity


As a Mom, I…

  • Honored Boundaries

  • ‘Mirrored’ to ensure Understanding… And to demonstrate their opinions, interests… Matter

  • Loved Unconditionally

  • Celebrated My Oldest Graduating from College 💚🤍

  • Aligned w. My Youngest as he actively pursues an Undergraduate Degree 💚💛


As a Daughter, I…

  • Let Go, and ReleaZed things from My upbringing that unbeknownst to Me… were seeping into the relationship. Not allowing for each of Us to Be…

  • Enjoyed the Evolution of Our Relational Experience 🤍


I’ve shared this before… It is easy for me to check off my ‘To Do List’, and Keep It Moving. A Trait I am working on… Why? Because, in the midst of Making Things Happen; it is not uncommon to think less is being achieved/accomplished/completed.


However, being intentional about making time to acknowledge what has been accomplished. Allows for celebratory actions & an opportunity to access, curate; and create/co-create next moves.

Seeing the realization of the Choices I’ve made… Plans I put in place… And watching Things Unfold… Come to Fruition… Literal Manifestations before My Eyes… So Rewarding… On Many Levels. ~Coach Z'

This is why that Internal Voice was so Personally Profound. After Reflecting, within each Space, 2022 was a Pretty Amazing Year!


Making time to Acknowledge & Celebrate along My Journey keeps Me Encouraged. As well as, Grounded & Centered; allowing Me to Stay My Course…


In preparation for My Vision & Plan for 2023, I will place additional focus towards Celebrating Accomplishments & Achievements. I’m thinking I will make time each month to Smell My Roses! I’ll keep you all posted.
