In this week’s Coffee Self-Talk podcast, I talk about a thing called: Mindset Intervention.
This thing, a mindset intervention, can put your life on a new trajectory in a single moment, like it did for me when I was in Italy.
I’m thrilled to announce my latest book:
*Note: Wine is not required to reap the benefits of using this book.
Somewhere deep inside you are all the answers you seek. Answers to questions. Solutions to help make your problems go away. Ways to make your stress and anxiety vaporize. Ways to make your dreams come true.
Wine Self-Talk is a simple, delicious ritual to help you relax, unwind, and tap into your inner genius.
Start living your brilliant life…
There is a source of sacred wisdom in you. A voice that knows what to do. A connection to a broader consciousness. It’s your inner creative genius. We all have it. The problem for most people is that our minds are too full of other things to hear that inner voice.
Creativity is the key to brilliance. It’s the key to living a brilliant life.
Wine Self-Talk is a simple, fascinating, 15-minute ritual that you do anytime you want to tap into your inner genius and unlock your creative brilliance. All that, with one glass of wine! (There’s a chapter on Champagne Celebrations, too!)
If you sometimes feel like problems lurk behind every corner, then you need to tap into your inner creativity to find new ways to handle them. You’ll soon find confidence and grace, seeing opportunities instead of challenges.
Or if you just want more fun in life, creativity is the answer!
When you’re more creative, you live an easier, happier life. The more you do it, the easier it gets… we can all massively improve our creativity muscles. Not just for problem solving and epic living, but, yes, for traditional creative passions, too… writing, cooking, painting, making music, photography, sewing, gardening, dancing, acting, coding, doing puzzles, coloring, interior decorating, graphic design, and so much more!
Whether you’re into creative endeavors or not, that’s fine, because this book will help you hone your creativity skills to become a problem-solving ninja, smashing through problems, coming at all sides with brilliant ideas.
Creativity helps you improve your imagination in your business, love life, family and all relationships. You can even improve your health by being more creative.
Now, more than ever, is the time to improve your self-talk and live your best life.

I remember the day I told Greg about my daily Coffee Self-Talk routine I was doing every morning. We were in our tiny Italian kitchen in Rovigo, Italy, where we were pursuing my dual Italian citizenship.
He loved it and said, “You need to write a book about that!”
This routine of mine is one of the vitally important parts of transforming my life in Happy Sexy Millionaire magic. (Read about that here!)
And it was time I shared it with everyone.

Join me!!!
I’ve mentioned how self-love and manifesting meditations with Dr. Joe have re-wired my brain. They’ve given me an EPIC new life. I’ve never had the happiness I get on an everyday basis, like I have the past year and a half.
I manifest like crazy, and one of the things I manifested was the ability to write romance novels.
I couldn’t tell stories for sh*t a year ago, or so that’s what I told my mind. It believed me, too.
Sad. :(
Thankfully, I changed that. I changed my self-talk and convinced my brain that I’m an amazing fiction writer with tons of stories to tell. Here I am having finished my 3rd steamy romance novel in only ten weeks!
After I published the first steamy romance novel, Lockdown Love, I slowly slipped into high-beta analysis once we hit the PUBLISH button on Amazon.
The anxiety creeped in like molasses. (Thankfully. Because that means at some level I was resisting it.)
So anyway, my rock-star attitude thought I knew better than to let those jitters grapple with my peace — BUT WHOOPS — it happened. Just this week.
I let my mind over-analyze stats and downloads and sales… wondering how many people were reading the book and downloading it. And, liking it? WHAT’S MY ABSR!?!?!
The point came where I was sitting on the edge of my seat, and it wasn’t because I was watching Interstellar or Top Chef.
In the past I would’ve slipped into that darkness and stayed there for days, weeks, maybe years. This time, it wasn’t as overwhelming and I had my whits about me to nip that bud.
These were signs to get my shit together.
I manifested… accomplished part of what I’d wanted. But it was only part of the process.
You don’t do that. (Universe chuckling)
It made me think about a lesson from Dr. Joe … balancing your intent with your surrender. Ah, yes.
A calm breeze entered my overheated mind.
Here’s what I had done. I’d put out the intent — the manifestation I wanted — which was writing stories and to be successful with sales. I’m after being a Happy Sexy MILLIONAIRE after all.
And I wrote the book(s)! BAM! CHECK! DONE! And still creating more!
(Funny, when I started my HSM manifestations, I never in a million years dreamt that my life would include publishing fiction, novels, but that’s how the Universe works. You can’t always know the how. You can’t storm your way into the kitchen and tell the chef how to prepare the meal.)
Thankfully, my consistent Dr. Joe and Self-Love work did what they were designed to do… Punch me in the face when I get off track.
And this brings me to today’s post. Manifesting and dreaming and planning are all good — when done in the right frame of mind, which comes with surrendering those things back to the Universe (for me), maybe it’s God for you.
I gleefully wrote my book with ease. But then I tried to control the sales of it, and in doing so I became overly analytical, wrapping myself in a scratchy wool blanket of high-beta brain waves. And it threatened to kill my precious creativity. And the peace. And, of course, the fun!
I knew better.
I do not help my creative process for writing more books if I am stressed. The brain doesn’t work like that.
I do not attract the positive things I want if I cast too many glances at negative energy. The Universe doesn’t work like that.
I went back to my law of attraction manifesting meditations and FELT excitement and awe and love surrounding my books and their sales. I went back to Mirror Magic and donned my cape of self-love.
And, well, everything calmed down.
My root chakra danced instead of fought.
Don’t swim against the tide… you don’t need to. Don’t invite survival emotions into the arena unless you just as quickly show them the door. You know the survival emotions I’m talking about: The ones that make you look 137 years instead of 41, the ones that make you have to pee but you hold it because you’re too busy… the ones that turn your brain to useless mush.
A key component to the manifesting recipe is equal parts intent and surrender. Think about your dreams, meditate about them, create them and feeeeeeeeel them in your mind. Take actions to move in that direction, but then also surrender the fuck out of them.
Let go and relax.
Trust the things you want, that you’re destined for, are coming. But maintain those ever-important, uplifted and beautifully elevated emotions (love, awe, gratitude, excitement, generosity, joy, bliss, peace).
Otherwise, your manifestations will take a hell of a lot longer to arrive, like Amazon deliveries during a pandemic.
Here’s today’s tip for having one of your best days ever.
It’s the game I love. Now, the name of the game is I Love and it also happens to be a game that I love.
You’re going to spend your day constantly thinking about the things you love.
They can be Post-it notes or scrap paper with tape. And on the 10 pieces of paper you write I love….
Now, take these and put them in random places around your home.
I have one in the kitchen by the sink because I spend time there.
I have one by my glass of water where I take my vitamins.
I have one on the table and my laptop covers it, so when I pick up my laptop and move it, I see it.
I have one on the mirror.
I have one on my yoga mat.
I have one on the door so when I leave the house I see it.
The goal is not to only think about things you love when you see these notes, but they are to serve as reminders that for the entire day you want the running dialog in your brain to be I love and then you pick something.
This fills your day with love and appreciation. But in a more playful way.
I love coffee.
I love oranges.
I love steak.
I love the sunshine.
I love my toes.
I love my bed.
I love this chair.
I love my laptop.
I love my mom.
I love my husband.
I love trees.
I love birds.
I love the smell of roses, lavender, jasmine, and vanilla.
I love my daughter.
I love fly swatter’s.
I love blue sky.
I love smooth pavement.
I love swimming.
I love boots when it’s cold out.
I love air-conditioning.
I love my legs.
You get the point, and that is to constantly think about things you love all day long. Simple yes, and I guarantee it’ll boost your mood. :)
At the end of the day go around the house and pick up your notes, and put them in a Ziploc bag to store for another day.
By making this a purposeful activity with the notes that you do maybe once a week or every couple weeks, or heck, once a month… maybe it’s the first day of every month, it adds mega juice and sparkle to your day.
