The Power of FOCUS

March 8, 2021 by Lori Leave a Comment

You get what you focus on. You’ve heard that advice, right?

It reminds us that, to begin living the life we really want, we have to start doing those things that will get us there.

There was a time my life was extremely out of balance. All I could see were my struggles and didn’t have any solutions. It kept me stuck. Focusing on the struggles kept me in a state of hopelessness and defeat. I had to stand up inside myself and be determined to find a better way. I knew the life I was living wasn’t meant for me. I took one step and then another and kept going. Sometimes I fell back and then I got back up and didn’t give up on myself, my dreams, and the life I truly desire.

Maybe you’re not where you want to be yet, but at least we are not where we used to be. It’s never too late to live the life you were born to live. The good news is you don’t have to figure it out and do it all on your own.

Now I am a Certified Oola Life Coach. I help clients determine what’s not working for them in the areas of fitness, finance, field (career), family, faith, friends and fun – then correct those stressors and bring about the lifestyle, relationships and financial security they need to be happy, balanced and growing.

So what could the OolaLife look like for you?

 

I’m challenging you to decide, then focus on getting this life you really want.

Let’s Get Started: Decide What You Want

Have you ever thought about the lifestyle, activities, wealth, longevity, family relationships and other parts of a fantastic life that YOU want?

If you haven’t, that’s the first place to start. Why? Because in order to get what you want, you have to KNOW what you want. If you’re going to focus your time and energy, it’s got to be awesome and a major life improvement for you. For instance, do you want to . . .

Fitness: Be date-night ready with tons of energy?

Finance: Eliminate all debt and have money to spare?

Family: Have a rockin’ good marriage + amazing kids, too?

Field: Find a dream job or start a business you love?

Faith: Start an exciting new faith-based project?

Friends: Find new friends and mentors who believe in you?

Fun: Crush those bucket-list adventures you’ve dreamed of?

Whatever inspires you, why not share it below? (But hey, don’t reveal super-personal details!)

To help you achieve your own OolaLife, I’ve joined forces with Dave and Troy – The OolaGuys – to privately coach you and support you via a TRANSFORMATION Program designed to transform your life, your finances, your relationships and more. Click here to get started. I am glad I took my first step on the journey to transformation. You will be glad you did too. I believe in you and want to see you win.

Much Love,

Lori

JOURNEY TO HOPE AND TRANSFORMATION: My Oola Story

November 18, 2020 by Lori Leave a Comment

Travel Journey

Join me on my journey. If you read my book, you know I almost wasn’t alive to tell my story and continue my journey. My path led me to Oola, which is a state of awesomeness and having balance and growing in 7 key areas of life.

The next leg of my journey led me to develop The LORI Factor, which I will reveal at a later time. Today, I am sharing My Oola Story with you.

I got to write a blog on the Oola platform. It is now officially published.

Let me share it with you. Click here.

Enjoy this Lori  Story. Thanks for reading. Be filled with faith, hope, and love.

“Shoot for the moon, and if you miss you’ll still be among the stars.”

~Les Brown

Even through the good, the bad, and the ugly, look at life as one adventure after another. It’s all part of your story. It would be my pleasure to hear about your journey and how I can help along the way.

Much Love,

Lori

A Day of Celebration

November 8, 2020 by Lori Leave a Comment

As I write this, today is my son’s birthday. Joseph David born November 8th. He and his brother were the best gifts I ever received. He is destined for greatness.

I am talking about one of the 7 F’s of Oola–Family.

Family is of high value to me. I am thankful I got to spend time with my son and daughter-in-law today. They add so much meaning to my life. I am blessed.

What’s Oola?  It’s a state of awesomeness when your life is balanced and growing in 7 key areas of life (Fitness, Finance, Family, Field, Faith, Friends, and Fun).

Today’s birthday celebration added another “F” of Oola–Fun. It’s important to take time for fun. Fun with family was a double blessing. In fact, it was a beautiful fall day beaming with sunshine and we cooked on the grill. I love the taste of food cooked on charcoal. It was completed with a sweet treat. What a lovely day!

The number 8 is significant. It’s the meaning of new beginnings and renewal. What new things are happening in your life? Or what new beginnings are you hoping to see? What’s important to you?

The flow of number 8 represents the infinity symbol. Let your life flow naturally in the direction you desire. It won’t be a straight line, but a path with some detours. See the detours as adventures that bring you to unexpected places. Those places are just where you are meant to be. Take the risk of doing new things. You never know what you may discover about yourself.

When you look at the 7 key areas of your life that I mentioned above, how are you doing? Which areas are flowing and growing, and which ones are unbalanced and slowing you down? We all have struggles and challenges. Together, we can help each other get in a better place.

Think of each “F” as a spoke on a wheel. Some may be broken or have a hitch right now. Your wheel doesn’t roll smoothly, does it? I have a framework I can guide you through. It starts with where you are now and shows you how to get where you want to be.

It will get you rolling down your desired path.

Ready, Set, Go! Here is a free gift to start your transformation adventure:  http://bit.ly/3stepTransform

When you’re ready to shift into a higher gear, go here:  https://www.liveoola.com/?ref=4e7de7 Let’s ride down the highway together.

I celebrate you. Remember, you have greatness in you. Do what you came here to do. Let me know how things are going and how I can help. Keep in touch.

Much Love,

Lori

Sleep Deprived perhaps?

October 26, 2020 by Lori Leave a Comment

Trouble sleeping?
Trouble Sleeping?

Here is what I know. Sleep affects everything! Especially since the pandemic and increased stress, sleep has been disrupted and interrupted in many cases. Is this true for you?

You know me as an author, writer, and speaker mainly. Why am I talking about sleep? Without wellness, which includes sound sleep, everything is affected personally and professionally. It throws off our life balance. I teach about how to have more balance in 7 key areas of life using the Oola framework. Getting quality sleep is essential and very Oola.

It will feel so good not being tired, right? I am sharing this Young Living blog with you. Rest assured that these valuable resources may be the answer to help you function better naturally. Make the decision to support your wellness. Love yourself. Take care of you. Feel better. Be better. Get started here.

Let me know if you want me to teach you more. I have virtual classes available. Message me or text my text only number: 844-394-4798.

How many of you need a breakthrough? It’s coming. Believe it.

NEW YEAR, NEW YOU

January 14, 2020 by Lori Leave a Comment

Ready for a new YOU in 2020?

Here’s the one thing you must do.

With a whole new year ahead of us, how about a reality check: did you accomplish everything you wanted to in 2019? Are your finances handled? Are you in better shape and eating healthier? Did you handle those tough family situations or those friendships that were high maintenance?

And what about having fun, checking things off your bucket list, and doing cool new things in your career?

If 2019 was a blur and starting a new decade in 2020 has inspired you to create the amazing life you want, I have good news for you: a unique opportunity for you to work with two amazing experts (and me) to make sure your major life goals are achieved.

Meet the OolaGuys . . .

The Oola Guys: Dave Braun & Troy Amdahl

More than 20 years ago, two holistic physicians—Dr. Dave Braun and Dr. Troy Amdahl—created a formula called Oola to help people establish new habits, practice new ways of living, and take those daily actions that are key to bringing life into balance, then keeping it that way on an ongoing basis. Today, “The OolaGuys” are international bestselling authors, social media influencers, personal growth experts, and founders of Oola Coaching with countless successful clients around the world.

Tons of victory stories of real people confirm that the simple, practical, easy-to-implement Oola formula works to help people get healthy, eliminate debt, build wealth, move into their dream career, have more fun, create a better circle of friends, resolve lifelong family conflict . . . and so much more.

But here’s the best part: together, the Oola Guys and I have created an exciting opportunity to help you achieve your own story of balance, happiness and growth in 2020.

Announcing the Oola Coaching Program . . . 10 weeks to creating the life you want.

Over the next 10 weeks, via video tutorials sent to your inbox every week, Dave and Troy will teach you the Oola principles, while you and I work personally (by phone or Zoom) to help you put into action what you learn.

Over 10 intensive weeks, I’ll help you define the life you want, then help you accomplish what you haven’t been able to tackle on your own. We’ll even identify your breakthrough goal: the essential thing you MUST do to turn things around, get back to normal, and begin building the future you want.

Of course, most of the top performers in the world have private coaches: athletes, business owners, artists, corporate executives, even stay-at-home moms with a prosperous side hustle.

Now it’s your turn to join forces with Oola and me to meet your goals in 2020.

What could you achieve in 2020 by working together and focusing on your future?

 

In Gratitude,
