How to Find Joy Again—Even When Life’s Been a Mess

Hey there, Reader! I’ve been asked this question three times just this week. Three times! Sure, the wording was a bit different each time, but the heart of it stayed the same. And with the holiday season coming up—when we all feel the tug of joy and connection—you might be wondering the exact same thing: 👉 how do i find joy in life again after going through hard times? First of all, if you're wondering this, take a deep breath and give yourself a big, compassionate hug. Life’s tough moments...

Your Voice Matters – Help Shape What’s Next!

Hey there, Reader! As we wrap up 2024 (58 days left in the year 🫣), I’ve been reflecting on everything we’ve tackled together this year. Life can hit hard, and I know how important it is to have the right support when it does. To make sure I'm creating resources, tools, and content that resonate with where you are right now, I’ve put together a quick survey. This is your chance to let me know what matters most to you, where you feel stuck, and what you’d like to learn or experience in the...

Overwhelm Isn’t a Sign of Failure—It’s a Call for Change

Hey there, Reader! Overwhelm started creeping in this past week as I got back to my routines following my trip to Tahoe. I reminded myself that I’m not available for overwhelm, and I quickly looked at my schedule and removed anything that didn’t need to be on it. If anything new came in for the last week, it was a no for me. Overwhelm and the power of no Life has a way of piling things on, especially when we’re already juggling grief, transitions, or big changes. But here’s the truth:...

POV: You’re struggling to heal, then you find a message in everyday symbols…

Hey there, Reader! The other day on my morning walk, I spotted some vibrant pink roses. My Nana loved roses, and whenever I see them, I don’t just think of her—I feel her presence with me. You don’t have to believe in anything specific to feel the presence of someone who’s no longer here. People leave their mark on us, and that mark stays long after they’re physically gone. So much of how I show up and treat others is thanks to my Nana. I feel lucky everyday to have had her influence in my...

Conquer Challenges with My Top Strategies!

Hey there, Reader! This past weekend, I climbed the vertical feet equivalent to Mount Everest—29,029 feet. I did this with 29029 Everesting in Whistler, BC. When you “reach Everest,” you earn a red hat. This is the fifth red hat I’ve earned with them since 2021. People often ask why I keep climbing. There are a few reasons. At 16, I lost the ability to walk, and for a time, I didn’t know if I’d be permanently paralyzed. Feeling eventually returned to my right leg, but it took more than a year...

Ask yourself this question for a major shift…

Hey there, Reader! The trailer and first episode of the Living With Loss Podcast are live! This week, we’re reflecting on the question, “What are you afraid to know?” This question is powerful, whether you’re experiencing grief and loss or not. Oftentimes, the things we’re most afraid of aren’t outside of us. They’re within us, created by our thoughts. We might avoid things because we’re trying to avoid an uncomfortable truth. By asking this question, we can learn so much about what’s driving...

The countdown is on to April 1… time for the big reveal‼️

Hey there, Reader! I've got some exciting news to share 🌟 For as long as I can remember, writing a book has been a dream of mine. A dream I always thought would happen "later." Well, "later" arrived in a way I never anticipated. I'm thrilled (and honestly, a bit nervous) to announce the launch of my book, "Scattered Thoughts on Loss: Grief Haikus". This work explores the depth of grief I've navigated since my dear mother was diagnosed with lung cancer in June 2022. Writing in haiku—a...

Change - it's closer than you think

Hey there, Reader! Lately, my thoughts have been swirling around the concept of change - that beautiful yet daunting process we all navigate. It's made me realize just how much our mindset is the starting point for any transformation. Change might not follow the exact timeline we set or unfold in the way we expect, but therein lies the universe's magic, doesn't it? I've taken a leap myself recently, sharing some significant news with my family. Stay tuned, because next Wednesday, right here...

Reset Your Routine, Reclaim Joy

Hey there, Reader! I’ve just touched down in Boston, ready to soak up some precious family time. But here’s a little truth bomb: whenever I’m out of my usual routine, I find it absolutely essential to be super deliberate about carving out both work time and me-time. It’s all too easy to get swept up in the whirlwind of travel and loved ones. Yet, remembering to set a clear intention for self-care is my non-negotiable. It’s not just about balance; it’s about honoring our needs amidst the chaos...
