Sometimes life is about stepping outside of comfort zones. Reward often comes from feeling the fear and doing it anyway. Other times, it’s about having a do-over. This post is about the do-overs. Iβm big on intention-setting and work with my clients to set intentions at the start of every year. Last December, I created a list of my own…. Read More
Meet Adriana. Before the Total Reset Plan she was a healthy eater who was stuck in a rut of her same-old, go-to meals.

Mac and cheese and slice and bake chocolate chip cookies were my staples but mostly I would make do with a deli salad for lunch and settle on a cringe-worthy dinner of pizza, cheese and crackers or canned… Read More
I’ve always resisted breaks. I like to power through things. Since the day I started Where I Need to Be — June 6, 2009 to be exact — blogging has been something I’m passionate about. I’ve always defined myself as a writer at my core and there is nothing I would rather do than share my advice and insights here… Read More
