BREAKING NEWS!!! I am so excited to announce that I’ve been selected to be a featured author in a collaborative book called “The Gifts of Pain, Vol 2.” which is launching on Amazon on June 21st!

It's a collection of inspiring stories by 31 co-authors who are using Dr. Elayna Fernandez - The Positive MOM S.T.O.R.Y. System to share their vulnerable stories of adversity and the tools they used to find hope and healing.

My chapter is titled “From Powerlessness to Inner Strength.” What does inner strength mean to you?

Breathe 👃
Yes, pause what you’re doing and just breathe fully and slowly. For real, I’ll wait….
Whether you’re firing on all cylinders or in the dumps today, your breath is magical. Deep breathing can help reduce stress, improve focus, and even boost your immune system!

If all is well, then a conscious breath will continue to add richness to your experience.

If you’re feeling low, a few deep purposeful breaths serve to regulate your nervous system.

That’s all, continue to have a blessed day! And why not take a few deep breaths right now to feel the tension leave your body?

Instead of working for the reward, what if you were the reward? 🏆

Have you spent countless hours pouring into your work, for the glimmer of hope to be fully seen, recognized and ultimately promoted. If you’re simply doing things for a prize, you’ll likely be disappointed. Investing in YOUR value is key.

You must BE the prize in your company. When you ARE the prize, the promotions come, the salary bumps are more regular, and your visibility skyrockets!

Imagine yourself as a valuable asset – someone who consistently delivers innovative solutions, possesses exceptional communication skills, and tackles challenges with emotional intelligence. These are the qualities that make you indispensable.

Career advancement is not about exhausting yourself trying to throw as much spaghetti on the wall and hoping that something sticks. Instead, it requires a conscious, consistent and intentional approach.

Satya Nadella's rise to CEO of Microsoft perfectly highlights the concept of "being the prize" in the corporate world. Here's a quick glimpse into his story.

When Nadella joined Microsoft in 1992, the company was a leader in the PC market, but struggled when the internet became the ‘big’ thing. Nadella, with a background in engineering and business, wasn't initially seen as a frontrunner for the top position.

Satya Nadella, became the "prize" through strategic thinking. He championed cloud computing (Azure) when it wasn't a priority, fostered collaboration within teams, and effectively communicated his vision for the future, ultimately transforming Microsoft into a cloud leader and propelling himself to the CEO position.

When you take your career into your own hands, you step into your leadership and become a person of influence.

What has worked for you in your own career?

Success can be winning a competition, finding love, achieving fame, experiencing inner peace, or maintaining a healthy body. These are all wonderful aspirations. 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗳 𝘀𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝘄, 𝗲𝘅𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲, 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁?

I see so many of us get caught up in the chase. We chase after external markers (money, titles, etc.) to feel successful. This chase can lead to constant self-judgment and a feeling that we're never "good enough."

𝗜𝘀𝗻'𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁?
Absolutely! Reaching for goals is part of what makes us tick. But here's the thing: when we're constantly focused on some future "better version" of ourselves, it's hard to find that sweet spot called acceptance. And without acceptance, that nagging voice just gets louder.

𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗳 𝗺𝘆 𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁? 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘂𝗽.
Acceptance doesn't mean giving up. It's about acknowledging reality without judgment. When I take a walk into unknown areas of the forest, sometimes I feel like I’m lost. Denying the fact that I’m lost won't help. Acceptance allows us to pause, and start navigating towards a better path. With acceptance comes the clarity to take action for positive change.

𝗜 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝘁𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱. "𝗕𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝘆 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗻𝗼𝘄" 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝘃𝗮𝗴𝘂𝗲.
By all means, set goals! But make sure your goals are aligned with your present values and experiences. Start by identifying what brings you joy and fulfillment now. Then, set goals that move you closer to a future that builds on that happiness. Otherwise, without alignment, you’ll always feel like you’re in a void and happiness will be distant.

True success is a journey, not a destination. It's about appreciating who you are today and taking intentional steps towards a future that aligns with your values.

So, what matters most to you right now? What small step can you take today to move closer to your definition of success, wherever you are on your journey?

Let's chat in the comments, or shoot me a DM. We can figure this out, together.

Because guess what? The most successful version of you is already on this adventure!
