I took this photo near the end of an incredibly long, and disappointing day, which, as the popped hood of my truck indicates, only got worse. The mood was lighter than one might have thought. After retelling our story later, the response was an empathetic “Oh no! That’s terrible!” or some form of verbal…
I spent this past weekend at a detox Retreat just a few miles up the road from me. Yes, I left one gorgeous beach to spend time at another gorgeous beach, but hey. We all need a change of scenery, even if it’s from one place of beauty to another. The weekend was perfect,…
This past weekend was a doozy. Did you feel it? A New Moon, the Summer Solstice, and a Solar Eclipse packaged tightly into side-by-side days. If you are one to celebrate Father’s Day (it was Sunday) or International Yoga Day (also Sunday), then you might have been especially busy recognizing and celebrating all…
I want to share with you something funny that made me laugh out loud. Truly. And then it also made me think. (Kind of a “hahaha—Hey, wait.” moment). In the last couple of months, I hit pause on my overseas Retreats and pivoted to increase teaching my personal growth programs online. This pivot…
Today, I’m lying on my couch, writing this, looking out my window up at the sky on a perfectly sunny day. I’ve postponed my personal travel and retreats, and am recalibrating. What happens next? What can I offer now? I have 9 years of experience operating a global business and managing remote teams. I’ve…
Overwhelm can often be defined simply as WTF. This past week I had a few WTF moments. Overwhelm that stems from the stress and mess we make by carrying too much on our plate that just isn’t working anymore. We haven’t changed a thing and that’s the problem. Situations we hang on…
Are you looking for something different? We all go through this. Phases in our life where we know, we just know, that something has to give. We realize we are ready for a change. It’s okay if we aren’t sure what the “something else” looks like entirely. It’s okay if we also aren’t sure…
The very first time I joined a yoga session it was a complete failure. Wobbling on one leg at the back of the class, I didn’t feel peace or calm. I felt frustration and annoyance because I couldn’t do the poses with ease and grace like everyone else in the room. I was NOT…
My favorite Christmas Day photo features me and a cast of girlfriends celebrating a life abundant with our favorite things: · Sunny weather · Puppy dogs · Pool days · Mimosas · Friends we love like family What’s not pictured here is all the bad-assery each of these women have put into creating…
Yesterday, my workout partner asked me what I do when I need coaching and a little life-help. Even though I’ve got 20 years as an inspiring educator and business owner in my back pocket, I still need guidance in my own life sometimes. I still get frustrated, bummed out, fearful & unsure of my footing.…
