Find Your WHY

 Find Your WHY 678 1024 Thayer Fox

Two weeks ago I read Simon Sinek’s “Start With Why” not expecting that it would put me on a path to find my Why. Shortly after, I listened to The Tony Robbins Podcast “Simon Sinek on the 10 rules for achieving greatness.” Here it is: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-tony-robbins-podcast/id1098413063?mt=2&i=1000396710849 Then I visited Simon’s website that has a section…

 Back Pain Secret 663 1024 Thayer Fox

I have been fortunate to avoid serious injury over the past 44 years. I do experience chronic back pain from tightness in the surrounding muscles. Once it activates, it can take weeks to go away. If you have other aches and pains from exercising, traveling long hours or sleeping too often in one position, then…

 The We Space: The Energy Between Us All 1024 683 Thayer Fox

Have you ever stared into a person’s eyes for a few minutes without speaking? Does the thought make you cringe? Do you long for deeper connection in your life? Is there a gap between how you feel about someone and your communication? What if I told you that when we tune into the space between…

 How Random Encounters Can Change Our Lives 1024 696 Thayer Fox

Sometimes random encounters can change our life forever. This was the case when I met Jeff Carreira for lunch at a vegan restaurant in 2012. The next time you meet someone through unusual circumstances, stay open and allow the bigger picture to reveal itself in time. I was desperate to feel differently, willing to take…

 Why You Should Start Drinking Kombucha Today 768 1024 Thayer Fox

Start drinking kombucha today. It will change your digestion entirely in a few months. If the taste doesn’t appeal to you, suck it up and drink half a bottle to start off. It will grow on you. If your stomach bloats a bit in the beginning: that means it’s working. If you don’t drink alcohol,…

 Do You Believe in Magic? 1024 683 Thayer Fox

Do you believe in magic? Unbeknownst to us, events in our lives are often set into motion long before they take place. Steve Jobs said it best in a commencement speech that he gave at Stanford in 2005: “You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward. So you have…

 Bulletproof Coffee 1024 684 Thayer Fox

Morning coffee has always been sacred. My alarm goes off at 6:30 and I have to get the kids out the door on their way to school by 7:30. Waking up before the kids to meditate or journal is not my gig. Even with a self-imposed curfew of 10:30 pm, I don’t fall asleep until…

 How I Came To Believe in God 1024 683 Thayer Fox

Today, I love the word God. It’s direct access to power that I cannot tap into on my own. My strength depends on my relationship with this simple word. When I say it, hear it, or read it, I am reminded to get out of my way and get into faith. You can’t be fearful…

The Gift of Being an Alcoholic

 The Gift of Being an Alcoholic 1024 683 Thayer Fox

Grateful for my DNA, being a recovered alcoholic is the best part of my life. I cannot fathom another way to experience this life other than through the wide-eyed wonder of sobriety. For the past fourteen years, I have plugged into energy beyond the limited container of self which has allowed me to be a…
