I hope you are doing well. We are already two weeks into the new year and I would love to know how it's going for you so far? Have you been more mindful, or more connected to yourself? 

The winter months are a great opportunity to go deep within yourself, ask yourself questions, take a look around your inner world and bring some more love and light to places that need it. It doesn't mean hibernate from the world and only focus on your growth. Self reflection and growth can be done in a simple 20 minute period of focus. 

That 20 minute period can be broken down into 5 minute chunks of time (making it easier to focus). 

• 5 minutes of meditation (breathing)
• 5 minutes of self reflection
• 5 minutes of journaling
• 5 minutes of gratitude

Your spring and summer Self will be very grateful that you made this investment in yourself. 

THIS WEEK'S TOPIC on "Live with Adrienne": Career and Abandonment

When you finally start to clue in to your childhood trauma, and the coping mechanisms you developed (and now live by as an adult), the first place you notice it has a direct affect is on your relationships.
Whether you push people away, are anxious, clingy, or fiercly independent.

What you may fail to realize is that while you are pushing away a love interest in order to protect yourself, you are also pushing away work and career opportunities for the same deep rooted reasons.
