Start Small

When people talk about change, it can feel overwhelming. We often think we must take massive leaps or have everything figured out before we begin. I love visualizing the big picture of what I’m creating and getting into that energy, imagining the lives impacted, the joy shared, the expansion felt. But sometimes that vision can …

Stop It!

Will you do me a favor? Please, stop it! What do you ask? Stop being so hard on yourself. Stop believing you are unworthy of living a life that you love. Stop giving your doubts and fears center stage and all of your attention. Stop thinking it’s too late to do something differently to live …

The Trick of Self-Worth

April 1st is a day I tend to go into hiding. Practical jokes have never been my thing, mostly because I’m pretty gullible. One year, I was sure I had made it through the day unscathed, only to realize I had wished a Facebook friend a happy birthday—on what was their fake April Fools’ birthday …

Small Steps

There have been times when a challenge felt so big that I didn’t know where to start. Whether it was navigating a personal loss, working toward a big dream, or simply trying to maintain balance, the weight of it all could and can feel overwhelming.

Maximizing Kindness

Kindness, for me, isn’t just a word—it’s a way of living. Along with love, compassion, peace, and positivity, kindness is one of my top values. These aren’t just ideas I talk about; they shape how I show up in the world. But here’s the thing: I’m not always kind and don’t expect anyone else to …
