I was inspired by a feature in this month’s ‘O Magazine’ entitled “A Thing Or Two I Wish I Knew”, where accomplished men and women gave advice that they would have given themselves when they were 25-years-old. I enjoyed reading the letters of advice and insight, and I became flooded with all of the things I wished I could have told my past self. When I was 25, it was 2003. My sons were 6 and 3, and my daughter was … Read more →
“Hope & Esperanza Intro” (Naomi’s Vlog)
I am Naomi Seif and Motivational Speaking is my passion. I’m extending an invitation for you to join me because healing requires family. No matter what the circumstance or wound in your life, “as long as you have life, you have the POWER to change your world.” This is just an intro video to my new webseries. However, join me for weekly video messages of inspiration (in English and Spanish) and the journey towards healing.
“Condoms for 12-Year-Olds? Really?” (Naomi’s Blog)
I am only 34-years-old and I’m already seeing the major differences between the world 20 years ago and now. We now have these “screens” in our lives that control, dictate and set the moral and spiritual bar for how we think and live. Facebook will tell us how loved or “liked” we are. Television and media will tell us what to buy, how to think and what we should be celebrating. Celebrities teach us how to have relationships while musicians raise … Read more →
“Baby In My Thirties” (Naomi’s Blog)
I first became a mom when I was 18 and I never imagined I’d have a baby while in my thirties. I used to think that I would be done building my family by then and that thirty was too old to start over. However, here I am today at 34-years-old with a BELLISIMO bebe and I couldn’t be happier. They say with age comes wisdom and I can definitely say, with having five kids, I have become a better mother … Read more →
“Balancing Act” (Naomi’s Blog)
It has been a while since my last blog and I apologize for my inconsistency. So many things have changed for this year that it has been a struggle finding some stability for the things I am passionate about. But I’m here and I ain’t going nowhere (lol). It is very easy as a parent to feel lost and overwhelmed in the world of parenting. However, the challenge is to remain encouraged. Raising children is hard work and running a household … Read more →
"Girl…He Is NOT Going To Marry You" (Naomi's Blog)
So, Thanksgiving has come and gone and no proposal during dinner from my guy. The holidays have passed and no ring as a gift. Even after the clock struck twelve to bring in the New Year, I still have no ring. Maybe for Valentine’s Day if I’m lucky, he’ll pop the question. Until then, I will continue to “convince” my guy of how “worthy” I am of becoming a wife. I will take into consideration all that he has told me … Read more →
"I Dare You To Dream" (Naomi's Blog)
Tis the season of looking at our life and either appreciating it or wishing it was different. With just a few days left in the year, many of us are planning on making changes while some are just planning to party. Either way, I want to dare everyone to dream. Dream the way we encourage children to. Dream as if you had power to make changes in your circumstances…because you do. We can have multiple dreams or just one. We can … Read more →
"Santa Is NOT For Everyone" (Naomi's Blog)
This is a strange world we live in. A world that says “be yourself”, “be an “individual”. This same world will then put you into a group and, if you are indeed an individual, you are then marked as a black sheep or an outsider. We’re at the time of the year when the majority of the Christian denominations are celebrating one of their biggest holidays and it seems that we are all forced to participate. I was born a Christian … Read more →
"Season Cleaning" (Naomi's Blog)
We have embarked on a new season, for most of us a new hour added (fall back) and pretty soon a new year. My family and I have relocated to a new part of the country (Southern California) and we are about a week away from welcoming in a new baby. Getting prepared for the arrival of the baby has reminded me of how important it is, every once in a while, to go through all that you are inside and … Read more →
"Adoption Is An Option" (Naomi's Blog)
Disclaimer: The views, information and material contained in the following blog does not necessarily represent the opinions of SoLatina. The opinions are those of the person making them. Just a few days ago I was thinking about how abortions are encouraged yet adoptions are looked down upon. Ironically, here we are today saying goodbye to someone who was adopted, and being reminded of everything he contributed to this world > Mr. Steven “Steve” Jobs. Can you imagine a world today without … Read more →
