Have you wondered what is your purpose in life? In this week’s video, I share a personal story about a branding workshop that changed everything.
Originally, I was speaking and writing about happiness as my career. At the branding workshop, I was asked to draw a picture of myself at my happiest. Without hesitation, I drew myself on a horse with my arms around its neck, wearing jeans, a baseball cap, a flannel, and my cowgirl boots. That moment sparked a powerful shift where I changed my career to match my passion. That is where I found my purpose!

What are you choosing today? I challenge you to choose less stress, choose more joy and choose being less busy! This week’s video is all about choosing well when it comes to how you spend your time and energy. I saw a sign at my friend Brenda Westwood’s house in Montana that made me think about this topic.
First, what are you being busy with? Are you spending your time on things that bring you happiness? Second, don’t forget that stress impacts your health. One good way to help calm you down and combat stress? Breathing exercises! Lastly, don’t forget that no matter what’s on your plate, you can choose joy and happiness each day.

Always follow your dreams. My twin sister and I moved to Nashville back in 1987 to follow our dreams of becoming songwriters. Our first song recorded was called “Love Speaks Louder than Words” and was recorded by Marie Osmond.
When I was 4-6 weeks old, I was held on my first horse by my mom and my dad. Now I’ve made it my career. If you have a passion you love, make sure you follow it!
My twin sister, Kaysie, and I were submitted for the Double Mint Gum commercials. We became one of the top 5 sets of twins in America. Go after your dreams, even if they are scary and risky. You never know what might happen.
I had a secret crush on my now husband for 23 years. Always pursue your love. You never know what will happen.
