Transform Into Your Best Self

  • Carrying Your Backpack

    Life is a journey filled with hills and valleys. Your backpack is how you choose to see and walk through your life. Your emotional backpack is based on your experience, involving your thoughts, your reactions and your choices to what happens inside and around you. Understanding what actually belongs gives you a map to healthy emotional boundaries.

  • Setting Boundaries

    The feelings, thoughts and choices of others belong to them. Their backpack is based on their experience and does not belong to you. Do not pick up or carry anyone else’s backpack but your own What you focus your energy on defines the boundaries that influence your relationship with self and others. When you stop attaching to the negativity of others, it frees you from misery and you are free to carry only what belongs to you.

  • Accepting Your Peace

    When you are clear about what belongs to you, what belongs to others, and what belongs to God your life changes forever.. Peace awaits you with these learned emotional boundaries. The toolbox helps you retrain thoughts, reactions, and choices so that you live in your best self.
