Permission to Trust Yourself Again
Good morning, beautiful, I want to talk to you about trust. Not the kind that gets talked about casually, but the deep, steady kind that lives in your body when you finally know how to hear yourself. For a long time, I thought trusting myself meant being confident in my decisions. But what I learned…

Permission to Say No Without Explaining Yourself
Good morning, beautiful, I want to talk to you about something that used to feel much harder than it needed to be. Saying no. Not the act of saying it, but everything that came after. The explanations. The softening. The over clarifying. The feeling that if I did not provide enough context, my no would…

Yes to Wholeness Over Hustle

He was talking about something he called the “300 List.” He said most people don’t get what they want out of life because…

Yes to More Than Enough Overflow
I spent years declaring overflow in my life through church and my religious upbringing. Sunday after Sunday, Wednesday after Wednesday, I would say the words with conviction: “I live in overflow. I have more than enough.” It felt powerful in the moment. It felt good to declare. But here’s the truth: I never paused long…

Yes to Saying No Without Explanation
I used to think saying “no” needed a dissertation. If someone asked me for help, for money, for my time, or for my energy, I would say “no” — but only after layering on every single reason that would prove my heart was still good. I wanted them to know that I wasn’t rejecting them,…

Yes to Money and Peace
There’s a song from the ’80s I’ll never forget. It goes something like:🎵 “I want money… lots and lots of money… I want to be rich.” 🎵 Even as a kid, I remember singing those words with my whole chest. Because who didn’t want money? Who didn’t want to be rich? But here’s the problem:…
