My brain is about to bust open. This has been one.helluva.week. When I list it all out (which I encourage you to do...we are "doing" more than we realize), I think to myself: "what I don't get done in a week!" Do this exercise for yourself--it's powerful.

March Monthly Call: Lacy Young
Our next FREE Monthly Vibe Tribe Call is all about emotional eating + how to overcome it. This is a hot button topic for me, because I've struggled with it my entire life.

I kiss my husband too fast. I greet colleagues and friends with swiftness and motion. I make decisions quickly. I read and respond to email at the speed of light. My days are full of GO, GO, GO. To do otherwise is a waste of time, right? I drive 7-10 miles over the speed limit. ALWAYS. I even read fast. I type fast. I cook …
