You are the highest authority when it comes to your own truth. No one else on Earth can interpret it for you. BUT you’ve been silenced, gaslit, or made to question your experiences, your emotions, and your identity. You just need your own validation, permission, and agreement.
Today, it’s the 29th anniversary of the car wreck that left me in a coma for 8 days. I praise God for the miracle of ANOTHER CHANCE at life, and I’m GRATEFUL for the blessing of my brother ELE, who fought for me relentlessly. #nde#coma#neardeathexperience

August started with heartache 💔 with the death of my Tía Francia, but I get to hug my dad next week and be with him on his birthday before traveling to speak in 3 states in 10 days. If you’re in any of these cities, I’d love to see you!
A few weeks ago, I had the honor and pleasure of speaking at the eWomen Network luncheon and sharing the power of #storytelling and strategies to use this art and science to accelerate our results. It was such a special time and event - truly miraculous and unforgettable. It’s why I do what I do!
💔 The Camp Mystic tragedy and torrential flooding devastation are a heartbreaking catastrophe. There are no words that can comfort those whose loved ones were impacted, but I just want to validate that in this life, as long as we love, we will grieve. 😭
My near-death experiences have taught me that WE ARE ONE. We are not separate, and what we call separation is a lie. However, when one person starts saying lies to another or maybe withholding part of the truth, that illusion we call separation expands.
I'm celebrating #Juneteenth with this #ThrowbackThursday to when I attended the Red Carpet Premiere and After Party for Disney's Queen of Katwe. Today, I mourn my ancestors' sacrifices, celebrate their resilience, and honor their determination to be set free. May we all join them in this quest.

Our brains are wired to create stories as a way of making sense of why something is happening or why someone is doing something or not. Assuming positive intent brings us peace and prevents us from vilifying people who might just be unaware of the effect what they're doing or not doing has on us.
Celebrating me and YOU. Happy Mother's Day or Healing Mother's Day. Wherever you might be in the journey of motherhood, I see you. I honor you. You are not alone. Your healing is sacred. You deserve to be celebrated today and every day! 💗 #MothersDay#HealingMoms#Motherhood#HappyMothersDay

Happy World Book Day! I didn’t own books when I was growing up, and I had to walk many kilőmetros to the library when I wanted to read one. Today, I don’t just read them, I write them, and I support others in writing, publishing, and marketing them! #WorldBookDay
