How Vulnerability & Social Media Mesh
Imagine your life arriving at a place where you felt so alive, thankful and silly happy. Maybe it was your wedding or when your child or grandchild was born, or when you won your battle with cancer.
Imagine your life arriving at a place where you felt shock, sadness from your loved one’s sudden death. Confusion & frustration try to unravel you.
Now, imagine an unexpected collision of happiness & sorrow. It is a perfect storm that will demand you to choose to adapt to life’s changes or submit to living life in chains.
The passage through grief is unique to each person. I am fully aware of every stage and allow myself to feel the raw emotions and spontaneous tears.
The responsibilities following death of our loved ones is a full time job that no one interviews for yet somehow lands.
Every day I’m one step closer to accomplishing the goal in getting fired from this “job”.
Because of that, I’m a bit slow at returning to full speed ahead and apologize in advance for my delay in response or action.
To those of you who viewed my LIVE video on FB, thank you for sharing such a vulnerable moment with David and I. Mom was finally understanding the power of social media and her daughter’s role in it … I’m certain she is smiling and scratching her head at how these videos can reach so many people who took the time to encourage, pray and share their heart.
Life does not end. Life changes. Love remains.

What Zip Code Is Your Comfort Zone In?
What Zip Code Is Your Comfort Zone In?
It was my first group motorcycle ride and my excitement to experience what I call “cage-free” living was palpable. Being new to the group and to riding, I began this adventure in a certain comfort zone. The first day our ride took us out on Peachy Canyon. Twenty minutes in, my adrenalin was pumping… fun, freedom and…fear. The tension increased in my grip, my neck felt tight as I clenched my teeth and there was a moment when, I questioned my both my ability & sanity.
Living in the moment is rewarding unless your gear is fear.
Courage and fear are equally accessible to us, the latter lives in the neighborhood of mediocrity. If I was truly going to experience this ride, then my comfort zone must move to it’s new zip code.
Courage is kryptonite for your comfort zone
There’s nothing like enjoying the miles and miles of untouched land. Breathtaking views as you reach the top of a mountain, the sensation of peace, joy, and immense gratitude that stirs your soul till you notice yourself smiling so BIG you don’t care that you’ve just eaten a school of gnats!
In order to reach your next destination, you must recognize that certain comfort zones have a date of expiration
What about you? How long has your comfort zone in your personal life or business been living in the same zipcode? Make time to invest in your growth!
Share your story of how your life is enhanced from moving to a new comfort zone!

Why Your Pharmacist May Be Wrong!
Ever feel overwhelmed with ALL of the options you have to choose from for over the counter dental care? How do you know which product will be your best fit for your current state of dental health?
This week Pharmacy Times had an exclusive segment on the Today Show to reveal their 2016 OTC Guide! Basically, it is the top products that pharmacists recommend.
It was a great segment! Here are TWO things you should know to make an informed decision.
I explain more in this week’s vlog. First, the mouthwash recommended has 21.6% alcohol in it! YIKES!!
Can we say … dry mouth? When you go to a pharmacist, you are getting a prescription medication. Many of those have an oral health side effect … you guessed it … dry mouth.
Dry mouth is a very serious and painful condition.
This week’s vlog shares how many ways dry mouth will impact your life. Please Share & Subscribe!
Ask your pharmacist for an alcohol free mouthwash. Even better, visit your dental hygienist for your wellness visit and ask what your current state of oral health is. Review your medication list and whether you are taking any over the counter medications that contribute to dry mouth.
Till next time,

Stroke Recovery | Dental Hygiene Home Care
Every 40 seconds someone in the US will have a stroke.
Did you know that the loss of eight or more teeth in elderly stroke patients has been linked to poorer cognitive function?
Very few articles discuss dental hygiene home care with stroke recovery on popular stroke resource sites …
although this is a vlog … my hope is that someone will ask their dental professional about this challenge.
Facial paralysis, difficulty swallowing and muscle weakness make dental hygiene at home a challenge when recovering from a stroke. This places one at risk for tooth decay, an active bacterial infection, gum disease, mouth ulcers, dry mouth, bad breath & contributes to heart disease, stroke, diabetes, etc.
I have witnessed thousands of dollars in beautiful dentistry be destroyed by poor oral hygiene. Dentures, dental implants, crowns, crown & bridge, veneers, periodontal disease treatment and more … that have been eaten by bacteria until the rot of disease becomes painful or life threatening.
