A Fresh Prince gen X classic that will NOT stop playing on repeat in my mind (and maybe now in yours too ).

 

Are you finding time to sit back and unwind this Summer?

 

I find my 3 pm self does quite well embracing the easygoing vibes of Summer. But 3am me? She doesn’t always approve, she’s...

A big mistake I made was believing that I could somehow “fix” the struggle my daughter was having with her mental health. That I could study and read and think our way out of the terrifying reality of the uncertain time we were in. I spent hours privately consuming ideas, tools, podcasts, books, videos, suggestions and stories from other parents who had already been where we were....

I love having a Spring birthday and especially sharing the day with my twin sister (Happy Birthday to us, Tami!). I see March as an opportunity for all of us to refresh and renew.  March signals the shift from Winter, a season of quiet and stillness, to the promise of vitality and new growth brought by Spring. 

 

As I reflect on what it means to celebrate...

Hello and welcome back!  I hope this email finds you feeling centered and connected with the people and things that fill your life with warmth and light.  Speaking of light, anyone else loving these longer days?! Thank you, daylight, I’ve missed you.

 

What’s a prevalent unhealthy relationship many of us experience?  The one we share with our cell...

Happy Holidays! Today, I'm sharing a few of my favorite things from 2023. While these are just a few, I hope this list gives you a little gift inspo for the holiday season! In no particular order (links included):

Hello and welcome back!  Checking in on you.  How are you, really?  There’s a lot going on in the world right now.  If you haven’t taken a moment, a big deep breathe to check in, this is your invitation.  Too often our mind and body are not in the same place at the same time.  We get disconnected and lost in thoughts, stories, ideas that take...

Hello and welcome back!  Whew, Summer flew by didn’t it?  As we say goodbye to Summer, I invite you to take the memory of magical moments shared with the people you love with you.  As I reflect on both the peaks and pits of Summer, I am reminded of the temporary state of all things.  Feeling grateful for the reminder as we transition to Fall.

Hello to you!  How have you welcomed June?  Where are you spending your time and attention?  This week, I’ve been experiencing the anticipation that comes each June, right before the kids get out of school.  In a few days we will be celebrating Carson’s 5th grade promotion to Middle School and this week, Ava closed out her Sophomore year.  The rhythm and...

I forgot how busy May and June get around our house.  Baseball season, dance season, end of school field trips, concerts, all the things as we anticipate the end of another school year.

 

Summer is just around the corner, and I don’t want May to pass without acknowledging it’s Mental Health Awareness month.  In my book, every month is a good month to be mindful of...
