Happy Holidays, Gorgeous!

What do you say we *shake things up* this year?

Out with the “shoulds”
Out with tolerating the same-old
Out with whatever no longer feels good to you

I’m suggesting a complete holiday overhaul - a holiday edit of the traditions, practices, habits, and thoughts that make the holidays less than enjoyable.

How?

First, join School of Self-Image. You don’t want to miss the month we have coming up.

Doors are open for a few days! Our December theme is Your Health Commitment - all about getting to the core of what it takes to live in your ideal body year-round.

(This is the ultimate antidote to yo-yo diets, weight cycling, body image challenges, and putting your health on the back burner.)

*Important Note: Join as an annual member or upgrade to an annual membership and get access to both The Wealthy Woman course and my live VIP session “How to Be the Wealthy Woman During Financial Hardship” on December 6!

Step two: Register for A Red Hot Holiday Party

Be sure to register for my *free* holiday party. It’s all about editing your holiday season while elevating your happiness & health this December. (Holiday attire encouraged!)

Years ago, I edited my Christmas holiday season and deleted all the shoulds that often accompany this time of year - things that used to make me feel overwhelmed, frustrated, and anxious.

Christmas cards. Expensive gifts. Mandatory dinners. Certain parties. Homemade cookies. Plays. Outfits.

I asked myself, “What would a dreamy Christmas look like to me?”

I wrote a list - and on that list was travel.

Travel is my favorite gift to give to my family and myself.

So this year, guess what we’re doing?

I’m gifting everyone a trip to Aspen for the holidays. We’re going to ski on Christmas day, sip hot chocolate by the fire, and go out to dinner for our holiday meal.

Now it’s your turn. Imagine your most fabulous holiday.

What does it look like? How does it feel? Who’s present? And what needs to be left on the editing floor?

Let’s find out together this month. It’s your last chance to join School of Self Image in 2022.

In fact, you can go ahead and skip New Years’ Resolutions altogether too. Just join School of Self-Image today and consider your New Years’ Resolutions as good as done.

In the first 30 days of 2023, we’ll walk you through:

• Selecting your “Word of the Year” - a word that will guide your vision for the entire year
• Setting an Extraordinary Goal (which is what makes us extraordinary women!)
• Using the Dream Atelier process and *something new coming soon* to achieve everything on your bucket list (This surprise will be revealed before 2023 - only to the members of School of Self-Image.)
• Making new friends with women around the world
• Giving every area of your life a makeover according to your values, your dreams, and your preferences!

Ready? Let’s make this holiday season incredibly bright.

P.S. Welcome to this edition of The Edit - The Bejeweled Issue. Let’s dazzle ourselves this December. This issue will show you how.

Dress the Body You Have Today

In light of our December focus “Your Health Commitment”, this is one of the most important concepts I can share.

Want to dazzle yourself on the daily? Then dress the body you have today.

So often, we abandon ourselves when we don’t look or feel how we want to; when we don’t accomplish what we say we will; when we make a mistake; when we are imperfect.

We withhold love from ourselves, and we rob ourselves of living a full life NOW.

Sometimes, we avoid style altogether. We don’t invest in pieces that make us feel good, waiting until someday when we’ve achieved a certain health goal.

But here’s a counterintuitive truth:

Dressing the body you have now actually motivates you to keep recommitting to your health goals.

You feel more attractive. You feel more confident, and because of that, you make better choices.

So dress the body you have today. Ok? She deserves it, and so do you.

Style Your Plate

Have you ever thought of eating a meal like it’s a treat for ALL of your senses?

Ever since I read “French Women Don’t Get Fat”, I’ve been styling my plate.

Why? Because food is a visual feast as much as it is a flavorful experience for your palate.

And believe it or not, making sure your plate looks visually appealing will help you increase the amount of satisfaction you get from eating your food, which makes you less likely to overeat.

Spend an extra minute making your plate look beautiful. You’ll love the difference it makes.

We get so focused on how we look, and that may just be our biggest obstacle. Health is one of the biggest gifts I’ve given myself.

In fact, here are the top 5 gifts I’ve given myself.

Dazzle Yourself in Sequins

No holiday would be complete without a little sparkle. Wouldn’t you say? Here’s a gorgeous holiday skirt from Anthropologie I’m loving right now.
