If we haven't had the pleasure to meet in person or online yet and you didn't know, I wear my hair with a shaved side.
I love when I get it re-shaved… it feels amazingly fresh!
But, have I ever told you how SCARED I was to do this?

Read MoreChange feels empowering BECAUSE it's scary.
When we experience change, and we shift the baseline of what it's like to feel safe in a new or different way of being, we start to feel empowered.
We remind ourselves that we aren't controlled by our fears.
That we can do scary things.

But rather, self awareness is a tool for change and compassion.
Read MoreWhat if you knew that you can only make one decision at a time…
And that you trust yourself to make a decision, knowing that you can't make a wrong decision...
And you trust in your ability to re-calibrate, learn, and embrace any and all outcomes.
And make decisions from a place of trust, instead of fear.
Read MoreYou're allowed to slow down.
It doesn't make you less worthy.

Read MoreUncomfortable emotions are not the enemy.
And if you feel scared, anxious, stressed, or have any uncomfortable strong emotions… congratulations, you are human!

Read MoreIt's not just about taking care of your physical body.
Or just fixing your mindset.
We are FULL AND WHOLE beings.
And this means we need to take care of ourselves AS A FULL AND WHOLE BEING.
Read MoreSo, in case you forgot, you and your being are very wise.
It's time to tune in.
To practice tapping into your intuition for answers and guidance, start to ask yourself these questions...
