It is not easy to live a successful and meaningful life. It takes intentionality, focus and dedication to stay the course. Our life Journey has ups and downs, and at times it can feel like an obstacle course. With the many demands of today’s modern life and specially recently as we’ve weathered a global pandemic, things can be challenging. It can be overwhelming to manage all the demands and responsibilities. This is why it’s so important to uplevel your support and collaboration.
Imagine having world-class support and collaboration protocol to help create your Best Life. Then the Universe becomes the limit…
It is no fun going it alone. And most importantly when we don’t have the proper support, we hold ourselves back from creating the life (and relationship!) we desire… For you see, when we try to do everything by ourselves in a vacuum, it shows in our results…
When we go it alone:
- We are limited by how much we can do, by our knowledge base and by our skill set
- We are focused on doing and forget Being
- We elude our creativity and our knowing
- We are flooded by the minutiae of life and miss the forest for the tree
- We miss savoring life experiences, the simple pleasures and amazing people
- We cheat ourselves of connection and intimacy
- We hold ourselves back from the potential that leveraging and connectivity can afford us…
These limitations have a massive impact:
- We hold ourselves back from our true potential and from living our full Human Experience
- We settle for less and can’t even imagine having something special to contribute
- We erode our connection and bond and jeopardize the essence of our relationship
- We subscribe to subpar parenting tactics
- We neglect, abandon and even abuse ourselves
We end up:
- Settling for a job we hate and merely getting a paycheck to live from month to month
- Creating a mediocre relationship, tolerating our partner, missing out on our epic love
- Missing out on the synergy inherent in our partnership
- Misparenting our children to the point that they become ill, symptomatic, misbehaved, maladjusted
- Damaging our body, mind, and spirit
For those that are still carrying the badge of honor for: Sacrificing themselves, exploiting their every ounce of living, and running themselves into the ground – I implore you to reconsider your approach!
It behooves partners to crack the code on how to better support each other and implement a Collaboration Protocol into their lifestyle to create the life of their dreams. They can easily accomplish this through the Relationship Enrichment Lifestyle™.
What does support and collaboration look like in a relationship? Every relationship has their own flavor of this, but the essence is to have a divide and conquer approach. Where one partner picks up where the other leaves off. And, where both partners are in the loop and current on everything that’s going on in their joint lives. But, most importantly where the partners are working together to achieve a common goal.
The partners designing and working together towards a Joint Life Vision is the key towards creating your Best Life and having your fullest Human Experience…

Create a Strong Partnership
Ok, so how do we create a fabulous life and epic love relationship when we are already stretched thin and overwhelmed? You set yourself up for having better support and collaboration, you create a Strong Partnership.
Setting Up for Success
Success and creating awesomeness doesn’t happen by accident. We have to be intentional and proactive about it.
FIRST – Clear: Decommit, eliminate distractions, outsource, declutter, streamline, simplify, automate
SECOND – Envision: Design your Joint Life Vision that flows from your values and has clear goals
THIRD – Structure: Create your Ideal Day (daily routine) that you’ll follow as a template
FOURTH – Systematize: Set up systems for sharing responsibilities, completing tasks, building Habits
FIFTH – Flow: Include buffers and transitions into your routines
This formula helps reduce the overwhelm and set yourself up for a productive, meaningful and joyful life. It:
- Creates space to operate differently
- Identifies your North Star to guide your aspirations
- Provides a structure to contain your endeavors
- Promotes an effortless approach to managing your days and the business of life
- Supports operating with ease and joy
What’s important to note here is that our ability to implement this depends heavily on: Our mindset, communication skills, how we meet needs, and bond with our partner. Partners who jump into problem solving and changing up their lives have a hard go of it if the other relationship Elements are not robust
FEELING STUCK, HOW IS YOUR RELATIONSHIP MINDSET? (PT1)
BICKERING AND FIGHTING, HOW ARE YOUR COMMUNICATION SKILLS? (PT2)
REPEATING ARGUMENTS, HOW ARE YOUR RELATIONSHIP DYNAMICS? (PT3)
MISSING LOVE, HOW IS YOUR CONNECTION AND INTIMACY? (PT4)
If it was easy to create a fabulous life and epic love relationship, then everybody would have these things. Our job is to invest in ourselves and our relationship so that we are in good shape to create our Best Life. And so that we have an amazing Human Experience.
ASSIGNMENT: Identify where the weak link is in your life and relationship right now. It can be within one of the Elements, or in one of the steps in the Success Formula.
Decide how you will go about addressing your weak link… Take an immediate action to get the ball rolling in creating your radiant and successful relationship and meaningful life…
As with anything, when you bring consciousness, focus and attention to something, Awesomeness happens. I wish this for you in your life and your relationship.
Wishing you much joy, connection and love today and always…
With Much Love & Light!
