BIMBO 5K (Global Race LA)

Did my first 5K run this past Sunday after a 2-year hiatus from my ankle injury, foot stress fracture, and my hysterectomy surgery. My goal was just to finish around 12 min/mi, but I was actually able to beat that, so I was pretty happy about it😊 Thanks, hubby for being my pacer and keeping me company the whole time. Looking forward to getting back into running again more on a regular basis. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🎽

World Financial Group Convention 2025

Just got back from the Annual WFG convention in Las Vegas this past week, and was so inspired. Here are my top takeaways:
1. We are not just in the business of financial services, we are in the business of:
-Transformations
-Building leaders
-Creating legacies
-and start with a clear purpose
2. Leading with purpose means every step we take, no matter how small, is aligned with a bigger vision
3. You can have success or excuses, not both
4. Think BIG, turn your annual income into your monthly income
-Stay excited when things are not exciting
-Your lowest point is the doorway to the highest self
5. If your dreams do not scare you, they are not big enough
-come up with Pain and Pleasure list
-Pain: things that I am sick and tired of
-Pleasure: Things i want to do if time and money is not an issue.
6. Dont be a Linear thinker, but be an Exponential Visionary
-Understand exponential growth
-Focus on compounding effect
7. If you want to increase your pocket, you must increase your financial literacy
8. If you have the willingness to do things that others not willing to do, then you can live lives that others not able to live
9. You do not decide on your future, but you can decide on your habit, and your habit can decide on your future. When learning becomes a habit, success becomes effortless
10. You do not rise to the level of your goals but fall to the level of your systems
11. Life is not about finding yourself but developing yourself
12. Focus fool can achieve way more than a distracted genius
13. Even you can’t change:
-The distance you must travel
-The terrain you must cross
-The weight you must carry;
But you can change:
-The way you carry it
14. When time gets tough, just stay for 1 more day, call your mentor 1 more time.

 

BK Live 2025

We attended another inspirational and fruitful BK live event this past weekend! We got double upgraded from General Admission to VIP Plantinum. We got the opportunity to attend the mastermind the night before and had the honor to share on stage what we learned from the Legacy tribe. Most importantly, we were able to connect with so many like-minded entrepreneurs. Check out our top 10 takeaways from the event. Bedros Keuilian Bryce Henson
1) Set the standard, hold the standard, and make all decisions by the standard
2) Your business will never outgrow your leadership or identity
3) Look for someone who has my future customers
4) Be built for winter. Anyone can do well in spring and summer. Keep doing the hard things.
5) Muscle is the organ of longevity; Strength is a responsibility, not a luxury; Aging is inevitable but weakness is not.
6) How to return to neutrality in chaos -Discernment to see clearly
-Neutrality to think wisely
-Physicality to move powerfully
7) Most of us don’t have a people issue, we have a conflict avoidance issue
8) SPARK
-Shift your mindset
-Prepare with intention
-Assess your blind spots
-Reveal their reward
-Keep it moving (fortune is in the follow up)
9) Breaking free from Muckarounditis (Knowing what we need to do, but not doing it)
10) Become the Elite version of you (Rule of 3Ps: Physical, Personal, Professional)

Camping Trip at Lake Skinner

We had a camping trip at Lake Skinner (near Temecula area) with our mentors this past weekend. It was so nice to be out in the nature. We had AYCE sushi in Corona, did photoshoot in a winery, and caught the sunset at the lake. Then took another walk around the lake the next morning and flew the drone. We had a great time bonding and talking abt our plans and goals for the future. Overall it’s a wonderful time to recharge and reconnect. 💗

Yoga Expo 2025

I attended the 2025 LA Yoga Expo in the Pasadena Convention Center this past weekend! Even I was only able to attend half day, I still had a wonderful time. I learned from Chiropractor Dr. Romina Ghassemi for her insightful talk about the Science of Mobility and Unlocking your Inner power. She went around the room to ask us share what yoga pose we struggled from due to our limited mobility. I mentioned to her that my neck pain (mostly likely due to cell phone use). She shared some tips on how to hold our cell phones properly and simple neck stretches to help prevent the dreaded “tech neck.” She also has developing clothing that help correct our posture and change muscle memory. I finished the day with a relaxing Sound Bath session that was very rejuvenating.

Natural Products Expo West

Thanks Naria Le Mire for inviting me to the Natural Product Expo West this year in Anaheim Convention center. It was so nice to learn about the latest and greatest healthy, clean-label products out there. Also, i was able to meet other Media Dietitians and connect with different vendors regarding potential social media collaboration opportunities. Will share some of the cool products I learned about from the expo in the near future. Stay tuned!
