Montel Moment

I am in New York City today sitting in the green room of the Montel Williams Show. I thought I would write to all of you and share this exciting moment. We're doing a live taping in 1/2 an hour. We tape in front of a live audience and air the episode at a later date. I will let you know what date that is as soon as possible.

I am a little nervous, but very excited to spread the word even further. What do you do when you get nervous? When my daughters were competing in dance they used to take a moment backstage by themselves and do some deep breathing. I usually turn off my computer and cell phone and review my notes in my head.

On that note, I am going to steal a mantra from a Lululemon poster I have. It goes: "DO ONE THING A DAY THAT SCARES YOU". 

Isn't this a great message? Keeps you on  your toes and keeps you challenged. This may mean taking a step into the weight room for the first time, or heading into the department store to find a pair of jeans that finally fits you now that you've lost all that weight. It could even mean trying a new food, like tofu. I was scared of that at first.

Whatever you do, take a few moments today to try out this mantra. I'll be doing it too!
