The waves of sadness keep rolling in, and I'm crying from my gut.

I don't know why. 

I'd like to know why. I'm not sure the why is as important as letting my body guide me through the process.

I'm listening to her.

I told you a couple of weeks ago that I discovered that the lie I...

I'm obsessed with the difference between knowledge v. knowing.

I don't know something until it lives in my bones.

If I know forgiveness only in my head, I don't know forgiveness at all.

Forgiveness, in this case, is nothing more than words.

When I forgive, I know forgiveness. 

We spent...

We forget that we are the most powerful person in our lives.

We forget that our opinion about ourselves is the one that matters most.

We give so much power to our bosses trying to please them and bend to them, because *we think* they are responsible for our future. *We think* that our...

On Saturday I felt so depressed. It came seemingly out of nowhere. I woke up feeling good, had taken Austin to open his own bank account, and once we got home I felt sad and low.  

One of my mentors reminded me that it's important to parent myself, to not let myself descend...

Do you have a desire to grow beyond your wildest imagination into the direction of your destiny?

Do you want to learn how to utilize your unique testimony and talent to serve others while living a life of fulfillment?

Well, me too! 

And guess what?!?!

I was reminded by my friend, Tecca, that my idea for The Pump Up Session was a fledgling idea back in 2020. Two years later, the session is alive and bringing value to so many lives. I'm so grateful to that group of women who heard me share what I thought she could be.

Boy has it been nice to take a break in July.

I have become very clear that one of my life goals is to be completely off in July and December. Stay tuned. These goals feel very possible.

Here is my big life update....

We bought a lake house on Lake Erie and we close on August 26th!

Austin and I...

Journaling is one of the best ways I know to engage my body in the healing process.

I have been working with a lady out of Nashville who combines breath work and forgiveness. It's pretty intense and exactly the kind of medicine I crave. It's so much more than talking.

My next...

If you feel overloaded, you can say no to taking on anything else.

This is your permission slip to say no.

In fact, I'd go a step further and say it's your responsibility to say no. Otherwise, everyone suffers, and you suffer the most.

Most importantly, communicate clearly with the people around...

Learning doesn't come from experience. It comes from reflecting on the experience.

This is one of my favorite quotes. It is most attributed to John Dewey although he doesn't actually write these words verbatim in any of his texts.

Becoming a coach for BetterUp taught me the...

Is there a dream you have for your life? An idea that's been sitting with you for weeks, years, or decades?

Something you envisage creating, somewhere you want to live, a skill you want to acquire?  

Among many dreams, one that's prominent for me right now is writing a book.

I have...

Last Friday, Preston and I spontaneously bought tickets for a Garth Brooks concert that evening in Cincinnati, OH which is two hours away. 

Firstly, I highly recommend being spontaneous. It made me feel as though I was really living.

Secondly, Garth's show was a masterclass in...
