Welcome to Loving on Me \u2013 an inspiration destination for women who want more than the status quo! Together, we\u2019ll explore how to be the \u201cme\u201d we always wanted to be but for whatever reason decided we couldn\u2019t be. We\u2019ll learn to love ourselves as we are and know that WE ARE ENOUGH!<\/p>\n
I know many of you have to be wondering, where is Katrina going with this? Does she even know anything about this stuff? Truthfully, I\u2019ve been asking God the same doggone thing. I keep telling Him y\u2019all are going to think I\u2019m nuts. I don\u2019t talk about this. I talk about business and philanthropy and marketing and doing GOOD.\u00a0 That\u2019s what I wanted to blog about!! I had it all planned out\u2026<\/p>\n
But a funny thing happened on the way to the picture show. Earlier this year when my comfort zone was crushed by a crisis, God allowed a new PASSION to rise from the depths of my soul. Somehow, someway, I knew I needed to inspire women to abundant living.<\/p>\n
You see I am one of those women who absolutely loves women. I love everything about us \u2013 our beauty, our passion, our intellect, our intuition and the cherry on top \u2013 our shoes!! (I know, I know \u2013 for a minute there I was going deep but I did say I loved EVERYTHING.)<\/p>\n
After working for more than\u00a020 years supporting women\u2019s causes around the world, I have seen the best and worst of us. If we make up our mind to do something, it\u2019s as good as done. If we decide we\u2019re done, well\u2026you may as well go on to the house. We\u2019re just done. You see, when we work together, ANYTHING is possible. When we work against each other, we all lose.<\/p>\n
And lately, with all the vitriolic rhetoric we seem to be losing a lot – mostly our respect for ourselves, and our perspective on what\u2019s important.\u00a0 A few weeks back, I was floored \u2013 I mean tee totally shocked when we wasted good television time debating whether a woman who stayed at home and raised her kids actually worked. Are you kidding?? My mom and her friends fought that battle before I was even born.<\/p>\n
See, this is what alarms me. As women, if we love ourselves and are at peace with our decisions we don\u2019t expend any energy picking apart other women and their decisions. Instead, we band together to protect at all cost our right to choose. Because when it comes down to it, we know that we are intelligent enough to make the best decision for our OWN lives \u2013 and so are our sisters.<\/p>\n
It seems like somewhere on the way to having it all we lost sight of ourselves. But it\u2019s okay. We\u2019re still here and that means there\u2019s still time for change. I propose we start a new women\u2019s revolution \u2013 one that\u2019s rooted in an evolution in our thinking.<\/p>\n
Beginning today, make the decision \u201cI Am Loving on Me!\u201d \u00a0It sounds so simple, doesn\u2019t it? And yet we all know the minute we decide we\u2019re moving into the light, the darkness tries to snatch us back. Somebody shares an unkind opinion of us and we think we\u2019re less than. We gain 2.5 pounds and start thinking we\u2019re fat. The kids act out and we think we\u2019re bad parents. It\u2019s like a conspiracy to constantly make us negative nellies!!<\/p>\n
Listen, our first act of love toward ourselves is going to be to give us a break! Loving on Me is not a single act. It\u2019s a LIFESTYLE. It\u2019s an everyday intentional choice to be kind to you, to celebrate you, and to believe in the extraordinary magic that is you. It doesn\u2019t mean the negative won\u2019t come \u2013 we just don\u2019t have to accept it.<\/p>\n
For the next 7 days, let\u2019s try something new. When someone tries to plant negative thoughts in your head politely say \u201cI\u2019m sorry. There is no space in my spirit for negativity\u201d.<\/strong> More importantly, say it to you \u2013 all day, everyday.<\/p>\n I know it\u2019s a small step. But, let\u2019s give ourselves credit for at least having the courage to get on the path.<\/p>\n I don\u2019t know about you, but I am passionate about Loving on Me!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Welcome to Loving on Me \u2013 an inspiration destination for women who want more than the status quo!
