This weekend was a peaceful one for me. Lately I’ve been super overwhelmed and feel like my life has been turned upside down for the past 2-3 months. I have this idea that since I know about emotional regulation and self care that life will somehow be easier for me? Turns out it’s not! Like …
camera
I did a branding photo shoot for the first time! I can’t tell you how many new things I’ve done since I started my business, some that I didn’t even realize were a thing! This photo shoot was a fun new thing for sure. I learned so much doing this! I learned how much work …
bridge
My grandmother died and nothing has been the same since then. I share some stories about her and reflect on what it’s been like moving through that loss.
grace
I got overwhelmed. I got shingles. I got down on myself. I am human. We’re all human. I’m doing my best. You’re probably doing your best too. I’m going to try again and I hope you will too.
important
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about my to dos. I have lots of them. I have lots of jobs: mom, friend, daughter, granddaughter, niece, housekeeper, business owner, and so I also have lots of to dos that go along with them! I can’t help but wonder if I’m doing all the jobs “right”. And …

reevaluate
Lately I’ve been struggling with the idea that I’m an entrepreneur. But according to the definition I guess I am: “a person who organizes and operates a business or businesses, taking on greater than normal financial risks in order to do so.” I struggle with this new way of looking at myself and my life/career/business. …
small
I’ve been working through some scarcity in how I’ve been thinking recently. I’ve been noticing how hard it can be for me to show up in a genuine and real way in many areas of my life. I do really well at that at work and at home. It occurs to me then…no wonder home …
joyful
My private practice is thriving and I’m doing really well. I’ve got plenty of clients and I’m not nearly as stressed financially. At one point I was working three jobs, and I’ve gone down to two. Now I’m ready to transition fully to focusing on my private practice and only work one job! Great news …
success
I love to be successful. I like to be good at things and feel like I’m accomplishing all the things I want to do. In fact, when my kids were younger and I had like a million things to do each day I’d love to make myself a list each morning. Even if there were …
