Staying the Course
Good morning, beautiful. ✨ It is Monday, July 13th, and this morning I find myself thinking about balance.

1% Change
Happy Friday, beautiful ✨, This week I’ve been thinking about something that has quietly changed my life over the last six months, and I realized it felt important enough to share with you.

Ask for the Thing
Happy Monday evening, beautiful 💋 Tonight, I find myself thinking about two things that have changed my life in ways I could not have imagined years ago. The first is being willing to ask for help. The second is being willing to ask for the thing that I want. While they may seem like two…

When Fear Shows Up…
Good morning, beautiful. ☀️ As we close out the month of May, I find myself thinking about fear. Not the big dramatic fear that makes headlines or announces itself when it walks into the room. I’m talking about the quiet fear. The fear that shows up at 2:00 in the morning when you’re alone with…

Stay the Course
Good morning, beautiful. ☀️ It has been a couple of weeks since I have written anything, and honestly, I think I needed the space more than I realized. Healing has a way of making you quiet. Not just physically quiet, but emotionally quiet too. The kind of quiet where your thoughts get louder than normal.…

Show Me How Good It Gets… Even Here
Good morning, beautiful ☀️✨ We are officially a full week into May, and, if I am honest, I have spent most of this first week giving myself permission to simply be. Not push.Not perform.Not force creativity out of myself just because the calendar said it was time. I had every intention of stepping into this…
