After the summer of indulgence, eating, drinking and low-keyed workouts, I found myself needing the jaws of life to get into my fav jeans. Well, you know what this does to a girl. I had lost my mojo. I lost my adrenaline in the gym, the ability to limit my caloric intake and the spark to continue writing. I was discouraged about my future in media and was not hopeful that I could achieve my dreams as a talk show host and speaker.
August 1, I hired a publicist to help me reach my career goals. Quickly she took over many of the tasks I hated and allowed me to be who I am. We hit it off immediately. For the first time in my life, I felt like an adult in a business partnership. Lisa has her roles; I have mine. She works behind the camera; I am where I long to be, smack dab in front. We fight like sisters, disagree, and resolve. She listens to my opinions. I hear her and respect her expertise. She tames my over excited spirit when necessary. I have brought life to her work as a publicist, and Lisa has given me hope for a successful career living out my passion.
We are both excited to promote my talk show “The Only Way is Up!” It is in this arena I will bring to the world strong individuals who at one time thought they were too weak to continue their journey. These beautiful men and women have, like me, overcome tremendous adversity and internal battles to change their lives for the better.
Interviewing these people, writing, book signings and networking has given me purpose. I have felt the love from my good friends who support and encourage me. I have heard Lisa’s words when she gave me a good scolding, turning my negative self talk around. She’s right. I can do this. I got my adrenaline back in the gym, I have lost a few pounds and my future living out my dreams is happening. I got my mojo back!
