Suzie is online and ready to coach YOU at www.DivaOfLove.com
§ To have healthy relationships with others, you have to have a super healthy relationship with yourself.
§ This means taking care of yourself physically and mentally (self-care) and being kind to yourself (self-love).
§ While going through life with an empty “cup” only leaves space open for the wrong type of people who will most certainly take advantage of your vulnerabilities and you will often fill it with anything out of desperation, filling your own “cup” with what makes you most happy and fulfilled leaves you open much heal...

TODAY... Upgrading your life!
§ We all want free upgrades, but most good things of value come with a price.
§ Upgrading your life is about stepping into the unknown from the known. Taking a chance, a step out of your comfort zone. Be ok with the discomfort of change.
§ While it can be scary, it will be extremely rewarding and will increase your confidence and self-worth.
§ Start by raising your standards – internally and externally. Expecting more from yourself and others in your life brings value to all.
§ Make goals for yourself – what you want...

§ We all know change is hard, but “Whatever makes you uncomfortable is your biggest opportunity for growth.” [Bryant McGill]
§ Change is one of the hardest things we have to go through in our lives.
§ The solution to the discomfort of change is embracing growth – this includes constantly evolving and improving yourself.
§ Everyone wants to be on mountain peak but true growth happens when we are climbing the mountain – especially the challenges and hardships.
§ The thing that makes change so hard is the feeling of a loss of control. We l...

§ The actual definition of imposter syndrome is: the persistent inability to believe that one's success is deserved or has been legitimately achieved as a result of one's own efforts or skills.
§ Those with imposter syndrome doubt their achievements and abilities. They almost always have a nagging fear that they’re a fraud and others will see them that way. It can stand in the way of their own personal growth.
§ Think of it as – “I don’t belong here”, “I have no business being here”
§ It is something we have all felt at one point. It is actually very common, especially a...

§ Confidence in yourself means knowing you are great at something, you feel good about who you are and what you are bringing to the table.
§ When you are self-confident, you always have something good to say about yourself rather than always putting yourself down or comparing yourself to others.
§ Body language counts too. Self-confident people have a different energy and presence. They make eye contact and keep a straight back.
§ You need to be proud of everything that you have achieved. It could seem a small thing to you, but any achievement counts...

§ “Imperfection is perfection.” Said the musician Flume and I would agree. We are all perfect in our imperfections because these imperfections are perfect for us. They ARE us. We should celebrate them.
§ Embracing and even celebrating your imperfections is really about accepting everything as it is now, including yourself.
§ You need to love everything about yourself – yes, even your rolls, wrinkles, bruises, scars, aches and pains, silliness and mistakes.
§ Who has to say what is perfect anyway? It is relative and subjective. As they ...

We live in a very image based society. Between the dating apps, social media influencers and entertainment, we are bombarded with images of seemingly perfect people.
• However, these perfect images are, in fact, imperfect in every way. Most of the time there are several takes, lots of beauty enhancers and filters and set up situations.
• Is image important? Of course, it is but not every image has to be perfect and we should not compare ourselves to others.
• Embracing imperfections means saying, as Brene Brown wrote: “I am imperfect, vulnerable...
My desire to find true leadership continues. Plus... Why I feel that we need to hear the convoy protestors out.
Let Me Just Say THIS About THAT.
§ We all have our comfort zones, and, well, yes, they are comfortable, familiar and cozy because we know what to expect and how to handle it BUT perhaps you need to start thinking of your comfort zone like a cage.
§ Increasing your self-worth and confidence happens when you step outside the zone.
§ Choosing to remain in your comfort zone stunts your growth and progress.
§ You can better yourself and enhance your chances of success when you step out of your comfort zone.
§ You cannot make any progress in your life if you do not try something different.
§ In fact, staying in your comfort zone...
§ One of my favorite quotes is from Tene Edwards and it reads, “Know your worth. You must find the courage to leave the table is respect is no longer being served.” Wow! So powerful!
§ Those who value their worth are usually happier because they are more confident and are more comfortable in who they are are.
§ When you value your worth, you stop tolerating, or even excusing, lack of respect.
§ A part of this is also self-respect. Not everyone is there yet, and that is OK but it is a goal worth reaching for.
§ It starts with believing that you're worthy and valuing your wort...
§ Know and value your worth. We all often undervalue ourselves and let others have discounts when it comes to our physical, mental and emotional worth.
§ We shy away from praise or do not even feel we are worthy of it or that it is necessary. Many of us, me included, were raised to be “humble” but that made me really uncomfortable with receiving. Something I am personally working on.
§ Many discount their worth because of low self-esteem, which is something they either grew up with or acquired as time went on.
§ It is really important to have an accurate understanding of who...

§ Self-respect is having pride and confidence in yourself, liking yourself for who and what you are, regardless of our deficits.
§ You are so much better than you believe you are. It is true.
§ Having self-respect is not the same as having a big ego; it is a demonstration of strength.
§ The Buddha said, “YOU, yourself, just as much as anyone in the universe deserve YOUR love and affection.” So do you love yourself? Love who you are?
§ Never lose your self-respect or dignity trying to please other people, be true to your values.
§ If you do not demon...

§ You. Yes you! You are great!
§ You are talented and capable of greatness.
§ The problem is that most people do not believe that they are great.
§ BUT it’s by knowing and celebrating who you are that you will truly know and enforce your worth.
§ Identify what you love and what makes you special, what talents you have, what makes you stand out from the crowd.
§ How to do this? Work at it. Yes, the “W” word. When you are exploring what you are great at you will have to work at building what is already there. For example, you may have a good singing v...

· One of the hardest things for people to accept is their worthiness of love and respect.
· They may SAY they will not settle for less but they always do - from their friends, family, coworkers and love interests.
· We have all been burnt on our journey and that can erode our self-esteem making us feel less worthy.
· But I challenge you to take your power back! You are not a victim you an empowered strong person.
· To be worthy of love and respect doesn't mean that you have to be perfect or better than anyone else.
· No one person is more or less worthy...

Be a Team Player
§ We live in a world that is interconnected. Whether we like it or not, we need each other.
§ A team player actively contributes to their circle - whether it is a community, work, social or family group - for the greater good of all.
§ Someone who is a good team player understands their personal roles and responsibilities as related to others but also that they are part of a collective. All do better when each person works for the betterment of all.
§ Helping others becomes part of your daily life. Whatever that means for you. It co...

§ It's easy to get carried away with life's craziness which is why we need to focus on taking control of our life ourselves rather than letting life control us.
§ Control means different things to different people, so it is important to pinpoint what exactly you feel is out of control in your life in order to take the steps to regain control.
§ Whatever "out of control" means for you, it represents a challenge you have to overcome. For example, if your house looks like a tornado ripped through it, organizing and cleaning may help regain your focus.

The storms we face in life can be overwhelming.
• It could, at times, feel unbearable, as if we cannot move another foot.
• BUT we can. YOU can. You are STRONGER than your storm.
• Using your past experiences and any supports that you have, you can get through anything.
• Just be patient with yourself. Some journeys take longer than others do and that is OK.
• This week's mantra: "I am stronger than my storm."
• Write it down. Repeat it. BELIEVE IT!
• POST IT NOTE: I am stronger than my storm

It is important to be known as someone who keeps their word and gets things done – essentially a “closer”.
• This starts by setting goals and achieving them. Start small and then move to bigger ones. Small goals achieved will motivate you to do more.
• Writing things down personally helps me achieve my goals. It makes it real and sometimes I write the steps I need to accomplish in order to achieve my goals. Then I put things into motion until they are done.
• Being a closer is especially important in your interpersonal relationships. By being a per...

We all have something we feel very strongly, even passionate, about.
• Passion gives us a purpose and makes us feel that we have a purpose.
• If you do not know, think about what you get excited about, what fulfils you and makes you excited, happy. Do not be afraid of it but embrace it.
• Take that excitement and learn everything you can about whatever it is you’re passionate about and keep learning about it. You can also seek out others who have the same expertise and interests. Take some risks.
• Make something real out of what you are passion...
You ARE where you need to be.
• At this point in time you're learning the lessons you need for tomorrow.
• You might not be where you WANT to be but you really are where you NEED to be.
• When you accept today and show gratitude for it, you can begin living life forward.
• A better tomorrow awaits you, but for now, appreciate the moment.
• POST IT NOTE: I am where I need to be

Not Owed Anything (Managing Expectations)
Connect with Suzie at www.SingleDatingDiva.com
The one thing that can stand in between where you are and where you want to be in your dating life is your dating expectations.
• Dating can be one of two things, dating can suck or dating can be a fun way of self-exploration. It’s really up to you.
• It’s easy to get caught up in focusing on the outcome (where’s this going?) that we don’t enjoy the process.
• Each and every single person looking for love has a list of what they are looking for. Some people just want to enjoy someone’s company, som...
Another unplanned and unscripted conversation on The Milkman Show - inspired by a good friend and colleague who found herself in absolute hell yesterday when she discovered what her vindictive ex chose to do to her home... A home she shares with their daughters.
That leads to talks about how people with ZERO investment in my business still feel like they are entitled to act as though they do. Being rude is a choice you make. Make better choices. This is why we find ourselves in a place where schools are the targets for threats of violence.
And... As we're about to tie it all togeth...
How to NOT Lose Yourself When Dating?
(Ask Your Dating Expert Suzie @ www.SingleDatingDiva.com)
It’s easy to get so caught up in our single and dating life that we lose ourselves, some even adapt or change to accommodate others.
• The key words to keep in mind are: independence and codependence
• While compromise is sometimes necessary, dating and falling in love, building connections with others doesn’t mean that you have to give up who you are or your independence.
• Having a healthy relationship with yourself FIRST is essential. Someone you’re dating or even in a relationship with ...
Unrequited Love (Obsessive Love)
Connect with Suzie The Dating Diva at www.SingleDatingDiva.com
§ Show of hands, who always wants what they can’t have? The more we can’t have it, the more we want it!
§ The allure of unrequited love is magnetic. There is nothing worse than wanting someone so badly and knowing you can’t have them. Nothing worse than finding the one you know you should be with but, as fate would have it, it’s not meant to be. Romeo and Juliet anyone?
§ Countless readers have written me about these very situations. I’ve also been in their shoes and it sucks. But are we just su...
