Every girl dreams of being a cover girl and THIS girl is so honored to be on the cover of this month’s Y Magazine. ‘YMag is an online global magazine, featuring the YOU & ME of the Business world.’ Their article featured my dream to become a talk show host and the journey I’ve taken to make it happen. I’ve read the article and it’s amazing how a 1-hour phone conversation gave the journalist enough material to encapsulate my story. It’s my Read More

The show launches in 5 days and I realized that I’ve been harboring some fear about releasing what I’ve worked so hard on, to the world. So I did what I always try to do when I feel over worked and over stressed; I stop and pull out my “tools”. I’m understanding that I’m at turning point in my life; a milestone. So, I’m going to keep a video Read More
Isn’t it incredible that all the seemingly random things you do in life can be connected like a beautiful patchwork quilt that somehow fits perfectly together? I never thought that being a real estate broker in my early years, or speaking and now being a talk show host would have anything to do with one another. Let alone, that each previous career would hold the key to unlocking my potential in the next… It all began when I started in Read More
There is nothing less attractive than someone full of fear, lacking confidence and in full-blown scarcity mode. I really don’t like it when fear comes to visit but unfortunately when we head off on a journey into unfamiliar and unchartered waters it can be a regular visitor, dropping in at the most unexpected and unwelcome of times. Right when you were just making progress, or having such fun, fear comes knocking at the door and stops you in your tracks. Read More
I recently met a remarkable young man, Samuel Goh, the photographer at my sister’s wedding. I stumbled upon this beautiful blog that he had written and I couldn’t have said it better. He talks about the journey that most people face when living their dreams, facing ‘doubt’ and ‘feeling lost’ as he lost himself for a moment. His honesty and vulnerability are simply inspiring. Thank you Sam. Here is his story: ‘The past two months have been a struggle. After Read More
I made it! It’s been a year since I landed in Los Angeles with 2 suitcases in tow and a bag full of dreams. In some ways, it is very surreal to think that a whole year has passed. It seemed to just fly by and then at other times it dragged on… If I were to sum up my toughest times, firstly I would say that Sir Edmund Hillary said it best, “It’s not the mountains we conquer, but Read More
So next week I am off to NATPE! One of the best conferences I have ever attended. Where the big TV networks are doing business on private yachts, in cabanas by the pool and in $500,000 suites. I love networking, so I thought now would be a good time to share some tips as I prepare for the conference A.K.A. networking extravaganza. Attending a conference last year with a colleague was a first for me as I usually tend to Read More
A milestone goal I achieved recently was doing some red carpet celebrity interviews here in L.A. I had the pleasure of interviewing Marcia Cross, Stedman Graham, Gloria Allred, Dr. John Gray (Men are from Mars Women are from Venus Author) and many more. I can’t wait to share them with you. Click here to see the photos. Whenever I have a milestone moment there is new learnings and growth. The biggest new awareness for me was ‘BE YOU’. In previous Read More
Sticking at something is not always easy and things don’t always go to plan. When it comes to producing a TV show that has certainly been the case. I had a dream, a vision for a particular segment in the show. It would be like ‘the view’ but a more casual group of friends discussing everyday issues on a couch. Producing it was another matter (as you can see from the 4 different versions in the photo). It took awhile Read More
As I’m preparing for the launch of my new TV Talk Show, I’m going a hundred miles a minute and creating mounds of to-do lists. Here is the question that is holding my attention at the moment; do you ever feel that you have to slow down in order to speed up? Steve Jobs once said that every million-dollar idea he ever had came to him was while he was on vacation! I don’t know about you but I often Read More
