Joy Is Jet Fuel
Last week, I skipped the newsletter because I was off the grid—well, off the calendar—on my first-ever mother-daughter(s) trip to NYC with my three adult kids. Two long flights, a six-hour time difference, days and evenings packed with Broadway shows, great food, museums, endless walking, and lots (and lots) of laughing—all jammed into five days. By…
Permission Granted
Remember when you had to raise your hand to use the bathroom in grade school? Or ask if you were allowed to have dessert? It’s funny how we carry that habit into adulthood. Still waiting.Still asking.Still hoping someone will give us the green light to do what we already know we want. For so many…
Garage or Garbage?
The other day, I was mindlessly scrolling through social media and misread the word garage as garbage. It made me laugh—and then it made me think. A garage is a space where we store valuables: our cars, tools, workout gear, maybe even a second fridge for party supplies. It holds things we might need, use,…
Spring: A Season To Start Again
Spring doesn’t just bring flowers. It is an opportunity for rebirth, regrowth, and rediscovery. It brings permission—to try again, to begin again, to become again. Sometimes, before a new beginning, all we can see is the end. When we experience a job loss, a breakup, or even the death of a loved one, the landscape of…
Do You Feel Confident?
Let’s talk about confidence. Not the loud, performative kind. The quiet kind that lets you walk into a room and not second-guess everything you just said. “You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.”– Eleanor Roosevelt Confidence doesn’t magically appear. It’s built through…
What Needs Replanting in Your Life?
I’ve said it before: I am not a gardener. I have, historically, been a plant assassin. Succulents? Dead. Pothos? Brown and crispy. If a plant comes into my home, it’s living on borrowed time. So you can imagine my shock when two of my orchids decided to bloom again after months of what felt like…
The Fear of Making The Wrong Decision
Do you ever feel stuck because you fear making the wrong decision? You’re not alone. Overthinkers, people-pleasers, and perfectionists often treat every choice like it’s life or death. But here’s the truth… More is lost by indecision than by making the wrong choice. The real danger isn’t choosing wrong. It’s not choosing at all. Here’s a simple…
Learning to Say No… without the guilt.
Do you ever feel like your to-do list has a life of its own? You know you should say no, but somehow, you always end up saying yes? There is an old saying, “If you want something done, give it to a busy person.” Are you that person? Overachievers and people-pleasers have a particularly difficult time…
When Things Don’t Go As Planned
I had big plans for a peaceful, grounded morning today. I was going to meditate, sip my coffee slowly, and ease into the day before a podcast interview. But instead… My puppy, Milo, had other ideas. After breakfast, he ran around the house like a maniac—and proceeded to leave little “surprises” in the living room,…
Finding The Right Coach
How much time (and money) have you spent chasing the next great thing? -The best productivity hack. -The latest healing modality. -That miracle face cream. We keep searching because there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. What works for one person doesn’t always work for the next. But when we are in pain (physically or psychically), we keep…
