This weekend was one of those non-stop, every-minute-planned, busy-but-”good busy” weekends!
Usually, I hate this kind of weekend, because I love just being able to relax with my family. However, this weekend it was all about fueling my family’s dreams, and that’s what made it exciting, instead of exhausting!
It all started on Thursday morning where I rushed to get my older son tickets to go see a mechanical engineer that works with NASA and then rushed him over there in the evening so that he could watch the 2-hour lecture.
Here’s the thing. My idea of a fun evening is NOT listening to and watching descriptions of all of the rocks they are finding on Mars! However, my son’s dream is to be a mechanical engineer and one of the astronauts who will actually get to step on Mars, so, every time I looked over and saw the wide-eyed look of wonder on my son’s face, and I just knew he was envisioning himself standing there, I had to smile, and that made it worth it! (And, I’ll admit, the rovers are pretty cool, too!)
Then, on Saturday morning, we rushed him over to a magnet high school that specializes in Pre-Engineering coursework so that his four years of high school are focused on what he really dreams of and wants to do.
Here’s the thing: This school is over 30 minutes away from our home and we’ll have to wake up at 5:30am to get him there on time, and there is a perfectly good school only 10 minutes away from our house! However, it doesn’t specialize in engineering. So, while it’s not convenient, we’ll be getting up at the crack of dawn (literally) for the next four years to make sure he gets a head start on making his dream come true.
After that, we rushed him to his campout (he also dreams of being an Eagle Scout) and then it was time to fuel our little one’s dream of being a race car driver!
Here’s the thing: I don’t like racing. It’s not my “thing.” But he dreams of driving race cars for NASCAR, and there was an exhibition race in town (the first-ever of it’s kind in the U.S.), so we surprised him as one of his early birthday presents.
Was it worth it? Well, you tell me.
When your little one looks at you, all wide-eyed and emotional and says, “Best. Birthday. Ever!” and then hugs you as he says, “Thank you, Mommy.” What do you think?
(I think “Yes! Soooo worth it!”)
And then Sunday was all about fueling my dreams!
Michelle and I are rebranding Heart’s Desire International, and we wanted pictures that are aligned with our message, our mission, and our vision for women around the world having both the life and the love their hearts truly desire!
We had the opportunity to work with an amazing photographer who is a colleague of mine, and we got to have our hair and makeup done, wear beautiful clothes our stylist helped us pick out, and take amazing photos in Downtown Miami!
(These pics are just selfies taken by us. Professional photos to come soon!)
It was a long day! Lots of changing, walking, driving, changing again, and smiling until our cheeks hurt, but again, so worth it!
My favorite parts were spending time with my twin (always fun!), especially when we were just being our silly selves, and when our husbands and my sons joined us for photos, since they are such a huge part of our mission!
And the entire time we were taking our pictures, YOU were on our minds!
Why?
Because one of the best parts of our business is that our dreams can only come true when we help you make your dreams come true!
Look, I know that “making dreams come true” can sound a bit “woo-woo” or cliche, but that really is what we are all about: Helping you take the steps you need to take so that you can have both the life and love your heart desires.
It’s what we’ve dedicated our lives to doing!
So, for just a minute, I want you to think about your relationship dreams.
What is it that you truly want to experience in the relationship of your dreams?
When you look at the thoughts you have about that dream and the actions you are taking every day, are your thoughts and actions fueling your dreams, or your doubts?
Are you spending more time thinking about and really taking the action steps that will lead you to having the kind of relationship you say you want, or are you giving fuel to the fears and doubts that have you thinking that that vision is possible for others, but not you?
And do you have the skills that you need to distinguish, dismantle, andreplace those fears and doubts so that you can consistently take inspired action that is directly aligned with making your dreams come true?
If so, then you know you are because you’re already living in a happy, loving relationship that fuels your dreams every day.
If not, then it’s simply time to begin fueling your dreams by getting clear around what it is you truly want and what thoughts and actions you need to stop and start so that you can manifest the kind of relationship you desire or deserve.
Because, here’s the thing: Every thought you have and every action you take is giving you the results you have now.
So, if you’ve been fueling your dreams, congratulations! We’re so happy for you and love hearing success stories, so please comment below and share them with us!
And, if you’re not (YET), then let’s talk, because there is no better time to begin fueling your dreams then right now, and we’d love nothing more than to help you do just that!
You deserve to have the love of your dreams, Beautiful!
Happy Thanksgiving to those of you who live in the U.S. and celebrate this wonderful holiday!
Today, my heart is overflowing with thanks!
For the past two weeks, I have been in Hawaii, enjoying more natural beauty than I even knew existed! From beautiful beaches, to majestic mountains, and breathtaking sunsets, it has been one miraculous moment after the other.
If you would have told me a few years ago that I would be spending Thanksgiving with my husband and kids on this amazing island, I probably would not have thought it would be possible.
Yet, here we are! And every moment of this trip has been a dream come true!
While some people may say that I should have come alone with my husband for a romantic getaway, I’ll tell you what I know to be true! Love and romance are a creation! We get to create as much love, passion, and romance as our hearts desire. And, while, yes, perhaps it may have been a bit more romantic to be here without the kids, that hasn’t stopped us from creating some truly romantic moments while we’ve been here.
The first one happened at the Pearl Harbor Memorial, I mentioned to my husband that I would love to have a unique souvenir that I would see and use often and that would remind me of our trip. Before we left Pearl Harbor, we saw a small kiosk selling Hawaiian pearls. As soon as I saw the pendant of “The Tree of Life,” I gasped! It was so beautiful and original, and the monument had moved me to tears. Plus, knowing that the tree symbolizes rebirth, renewal, and a reminder that we are all interconnected made it all the more special!
I kept going between wanting the ring or the pendant, because they were both so beautiful! Then, my husband surprised me by telling the saleslady, “She’ll take both of them!” I squealed with delight as my eyes watered up and I wrapped my arms around his neck and gave him a sweet, long kiss!
The saleslady’s eyes watered, too, and she said, “How cute! How long have you two been together?”
“17 years,” I
answered.
“Wow! And he is still like that with you? You are lucky!”
“Yes. I’m blessed,” I said, and gave him another hug!
Then the next day, after driving all over the island to find the perfect spot to watch the sunset, because I mentioned that I wanted to see the sun set the previous day,” there was a Hawaiian man with a dreamy voice who began to sing, “What a Wonderful World.”
That happens to be one of my favorite songs, and with the sun setting, my husband and my kids there with me, the words took on a whole new meaning, and, again, my eyes watered as I looked over at my husband and smiled.
He stood up, came around to my side of the table, and drew me into his arms so that I could dance with him! No one else was dancing, and it didn’t matter. We just stared into each other’s eyes and danced! Another moment I will never forget!
So, why am I telling you all of this?
Because THIS is the kind of love you can have!
I’m not “lucky” and this relationship didn’t “just happen.” I have spent over two decades learning about what makes love last, I practice what I teach in my marriage ever single day, and making sure that you experience the joy of KNOWING that you are loved every single day of your life is why I do the work I do!
No matter where you are in your love life, whether you are single and ready to attract the man of your dreams, or you are in a relationship and you want to continue making the love grow deeper, stronger, and more passionate with time, YOU can have the loving relationship your heart desires!
You can learn the secrets to BEing a Simply Irresistible Woman — the kind of woman a man can’t help but love, and adore, and desire!

This past weekend Michelle and I had the honor of speaking at the Women’s Prosperity
Network’s UNConference and sharing with the ladies in the audience the secrets to being an Unstoppable Woman in business and a Simply Irresistible Woman in your love life!
One of the parts of the talk that most resonated with the women was where we give them “The CPA’s of Love.” No, we’re not accountants, but we can tell you about the things that will either make deposits or withdrawals to the levels of love and intimacy you feel in your relationship and will either INSPIRE your man or push him away!
Well, we got so much positive feedback that I decided to shoot a short video so that you can have that information, too!
Just watch the video below and share in the comments what you’re biggest “a-ha” or take-away is and which action step you are going to take!
Having a wonderful relationship doesn’t have to be “hard.” Follow these simple steps and experience the magic of being a Simply Irresistible Woman!
If you’ve ever had a great glass of wine – you know… the kind that you just have to close your eyes and savor as you sip it – then you know what an amazing experience it can be!
And, if you know anything about wine, you know that great wine doesn’t “just happen.” An amazing glass of wine begins with selecting premium grapes and a very intricate process of aging the wine that results in a succulent, savory experience that you hope won’t end with just one glass!
In today’s video, Michelle comes to you from a vineyard in wine country as she celebrates 10 years of LOVE with her honey, Arnie, and she shares the top 3 ingredients for extraordinary love!
So… Grab a glass of your favorite wine or beverage, sip away, and let’s raise our glasses to creating the kind of love that lasts forever!

Today Ric and I are celebrating our 16th Wedding Anniversary, and we’re about to leave for a 4-day getaway, but I wanted to share a short message of hope and love with you first, because, as usual, you are on my mind.
I know that you may be feeling afraid and hopeless when it comes to your love life. You might be wondering if you will ever have the loving, happy, passionate relationship you want with a man who is loving, faithful, supportive, and whose mission in life is to see you happy.
While it’s been 17 years since I felt that way, I don’t ever for a moment forget that pain and it’s why I’ve dedicated my life to helping women move past that pain and toward the love that I know is waiting for them.
I got a little emotional in the video below. I won’t apologize for it. I feel your pain and I KNOW beyond a shadow of a doubt that you CAN have the love and happiness your heart desires.
So receive this message of hope and love and know that, if you’re willing to be courageous enough to move past your pain and fear, there is more love, happiness, and peace than you can begin to imagine waiting for you on the other side!
I know you’ve probably heard (and possibly even believed) that men are intimidated by powerful, successful women.
This is a very popular and completely FALSE misconception that many successful women have.
I used to feel the same way, too.
I thought that if I was more successful or educated or making more money than the man I was with, he would feel threatened by me in some way.
I thought that if I was further ahead in my career, he would feel like I was out of his league and either resent me or try to hold me back. I remember trying to avoid talking about my promotions, accomplishments, and accolades thinking that it would somehow make my man feel more comfortable with himself…and me. Or, I thought that maybe I should just focus on my career, because that was easier for me. I felt accomplished, success came easily to me, and I did not have to depend on anything or anyone else to have the results I wanted. And, as much as I pride myself in being a smart and successful woman, I am so glad I was wrong!
Instead, I attracted a man who is and has been my biggest fan for almost 17 years!
He is proud of me and brags about me, but not just as a successful businesswoman.
He brags about me as his WIFE!
And I’ll tell you right now:
No amount of degrees, recognition, or high-paying positions can ever compare to the feeling I get when my husband tells someone, “She makes it easy for me to love her and inspires me to be the best man I can be.”
So, what did I do to create that kind of relationship?
I figured out the way to have BOTH the successful business and career I want AND the loving, passionate relationship my heart desires!
I learned that I didn’t have to choose between one or the other! I could have it ALL! So, I get to have a 6-figure business where I have the privilege of serving and supporting amazing, successful women from all over the world AND be loved by a man who supports me in life and in my business.
Just the other week, he was away on a very important business trip, where his days went from morning until late into the evening. While he was gone, my website went down and, since he’s my hot and sexy webmaster, I reached out, knowing he might not see the text for a while.
Just a few minutes later, he sent me a text message saying he’d get to it as soon as he had a break.
I thanked him and got this back:
Not bad, after 17 years together, huh? 🙂
And, in less than an hour, my website was up and running again!
That’s true partnership.
That’s what feeling supported in every area of your life looks like!
And that’s what having it ALL can feel like!
The truth is that you don’t have to “dumb down,” downplay your accomplishments, or pretend you’re not as capable as you are.
AND you don’t have to pretend that you don’t want to share your life with a man who loves, supports, and WANTS you to succeed!
During this interactive masterclass, you’ll learn:
How to avoid the common mistakes successful women make that propel them in business but repel love and intimacy
How to shift from being unstoppable and invincible at work to being simply irresistible in your love life
How to create a life where you have time for your career, your love life and yourself
Learning the secrets to having the life, success and love your heart desires is the KEY to having it all! Join us for this two-part masterclass and let’s get you started on the path to living the life and love of your dreams!
