Why do you do what you do? by Noelle Peterson Feb 18, 2022

Many of us start our career in retail or food services. We need experience and finances. 

Some know what they want to do with their life early on.

Regardless of how we start, we have a passion inside us that once ignited stirs the fire and moves us toward our dream.

Until we find that fire,...

Having a Positive Outlook Even in Grave Situations by Noelle Peterson Jan 14, 2022

I spent 13 days in the hospital last year, half of that was in ICU. Before that, I considered myself healthy, I didn't take any medications and wasn't under a doctor's care for anything. This was a shock to me and my family for sure.

Stand Up, Take Action, Don't be Afraid by Noelle Peterson Jan 06, 2022

We all have an imposter monster. That voice in your head that tells you you can't, no way that will work, who would listen to you, you don't know anything. The little devil on your shoulder. The lies that hold you back from taking the step you know you need to take.

What is discipline? Dec 14, 2021

Often times what comes to mind is reprimanding or correcting a child. 

But today we want to talk about being disciplined. As adults we must make daily decisions to do the right thing, to go to work, to clean the house, to get up in the morning. We become disciplined in our thoughts and...

Integrity With Yourself Sep 20, 2021

What happens when you are out of integrity with yourself? 

For most of my life it was easy to keep my word to others, to show up on time, to do what I said I would do. The area where I struggled, even after I started coaching, was being in harmony with myself. I would commit to launch my...
