YES to Surrender "For a Joy Filled Life, You Must Lead a Surrendered Life" ~ Wanda Marie Letting Go Can Save Your Life Whatever you're holding on to, has a hold on you. We must learn to walk with an open hand, holding on to nothing. I Let Go and I Trust the Process of Life Completely! Don't hold on to your visions and goals too tightly. Remember when setting goals, always say "this or something better." That means you must be open to infinite possibilities showing up in your life. Surrender your visions and goals to a higher power we refer to as God, Higher Self, Universal Intelligence (whatever works for you), that sees all and knows all. When you are in alignment with this supreme Intelligence, it will WOW you! It will guide and direct you, and you will begin to watch your life open up and unfold in ways you never dreamed possible. Your Daily Prayer for Surrender I open my mind and my heart to the perfect flow of Universal Intelligence to use my gifts and talents for extraordinary good in the world. I surrender my ego and embrace my Soul's desires.

YES to Self-Care! "Be unapologetically selfish when it comes to self-care." ~ Wanda Marie Life Mastery Here I Come! Lets Go... Before you dive headfirst into your new visions and goals, make sure you have a self-care plan in place. While men, due to their testosterone levels, may not burn out as quickly, women need to approach self-care differently. It's crucial to take time to rest and rejuvenate. If you're a working woman, schedule your "ME TIME" whenever possible, and aim for consistency. Establishing a routine helps those around you (like your family) adapt quickly and respect your time. For instance, you could designate every Sunday from 4pm to 6pm as your "ME TIME." During this period, focus solely on activities that make you feel good and alive, whether it's alone time or hanging out with your girlfriends. Gradually, extend your "ME TIME" from 2 hours to 4 hours, and eventually to a full day. Aim to carve out 2 days a month, then 4 days a month, and so on. By setting this intention, you're giving yourself permission to living a happier, healthier and more joy filled life! Welcome to "ME" Time We all have busy schedules. And we all need time to ourselves, time to rest, reflect, pray, meditate, create. You are nurturing your 'YES" when you take time to relax and allow yourself to be pampered in whatever way that makes you feel special. This gives you the energy you need to make others feel special. A Word of Caution To nurture our "YES" also means to be careful about who we share our dreams with. As creatures of habit, even your strongest supporters may play devil's advocate when you propose a new path. They want to protect you and preserve what's familiar. Thus, it’s wise to share your aspirations only with those who are sharing the journey with you. Pursuing ambitious goals outside your comfort zone can also trigger imposter syndrome, making you question your worthiness and abilities. Combat these doubts by immersing yourself in positive affirmations and continuously envisioning your success, whether it’s shedding 10 pounds or launching a new business. Believe in yourself! Be kind to yourself and keep saying "YES" to your visions.

Our Mission Our mission is to empower women to lead amazing lives. We're here to help shift the way women perceive themselves struggling to survive in a man's world, to growing and prospering with grace and ease by learning to create and command their own world. We do this through affordable online personal training and coaching programs. We have a simple mission and a powerful vision. Why LadyUp! LadyUp means to stand as a Woman of Power who commands her world with the Grace of a Lady. There is a reason we use the term “lady-up” rather than “woman-up.” “LADY” is the one word that does not contain the male influence. The word “Lady” has a very feminine quality all unto itself. The word “wo-man” has a more masculine quality. A woman usually works hard, using masculine energy to get things done, and often receives very little in return for her efforts. We want you to remember that within you are the qualities of the innocent Princess, the playful and seductive Goddess as well as the clear and focused Queen. We want you to get very clear about who you are as a LADY, remembering your hopes and desires, your dreams, and what you are to accomplish in this life. We want you to be clear and feel safe and confident in your body. We want you to have the courage to be free enough to build happy, healthy relationships. To do this, we want you to LadyUp! not WomanUp!

June 2022 Goddess Gathering EAT * SPEAK * DANCE! The June 2022 Goddess Gathering was held at the home of Wanda Marie in Arden, North Carolina. The event followed her signature transformational style of CLARITY, FOCUS, ACTION and INTEGRATION. The Ladies were received by a red fabric carpet sprinkled with flower petals. A sign outside the door read, "Entering Your Next Best Self" the theme of the evening. Upon entering, the Ladies received gift bags of various trinkets, including a journal and pen. Just a Few Photos Goddess Gathering Recap Each of the Ladies brought a dish to share which resulting in a delicious feast that kicked off the social hour. This was the first time for many of the Ladies to meet in person after spending so many hours on Zoom together. There were a total of 12 Ladies, 13 including Wanda Marie. There were the North Carolina local ladies joined by Ladies who came from Oklahoma, Texas, Ohio and South Carolina. During dinner, the social hour, the Ladies had an opportunity to practice being a Master Receiver. Names were drawn at random and small gifts where given out. The Ladies receiving could only say "thank you" with their eyes. Not so easy, yet lots of fun and laughter filled the room. After the social hour, it was time for the transformation to begin. CLARITY was about the Ladies getting clear on who they are as their Next Best Self and receiving guidance. Wanda Marie conducted a channeling session to answer questions to help provide some clarity for the Ladies. FOCUS was a journaling process. The Ladies were given private time after the Clarity session to write about who they are as their Next Best Self. They were given index cards and asked to write out an introduction that someone else would read, introducing them to the group as their Next Best Self. ACTION was having the Ladies stand before the group and listen to someone introducing them to the group. Then saying to the group, "I AM _______." Following the applaud, she was presented with a beautiful magnet bracelet and told it was to remind her that she is attracting to her everything she needs for total success. Ron, Wanda Marie's husband, joined the ladies for this part of the event, and after a Lady would receive her bracelet, Ron would also hand her a red rose as a symbol, acknowledging her grace and beauty. INTEGRATION was about stepping into your "Next Best Self." To be fully integration on a cellular level called for moving the body! Ron brought out his djembe African drum and created the beat that had the Ladies moving and grooving, fully getting into the vibe of their Next Best Self. The evening ended with Wanda Marie acknowledging those Mentors who were present for upholding the LadyUp Network and being her rock over the past 3 years. The evening was complete with many receiving new insight, awareness and direction for honoring and stepping into their Next Best Self.
