“All the art of living lies in a fine mingling of letting go and holding on.” -Havelock Ellis I’ve never been any good at letting people go. That’s one huge reason why I make sure I connect with people I truly want around forever. Because this girl just loves people forever. But I agree, learningContinue reading “Life is Art”

Empowered by Femininity
The moon is full and so is my heart. Wow, I was absolutely not expecting this femininity journey to take root the way it did. And this full moon is bringing up so many beautiful thoughts and emotions for me to sift through and learn from. I’m not quite ready to share all my thoughtsContinue reading “Empowered by Femininity”
Appreciation
“The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.” -Theodore Hesburgh Creating a home where a woman is free to become the best version of herself is one of the most important things you can show your children. This journey to my best self is solitary and veryContinue reading “Appreciation”
Basket Full of Us
On this journey, I’ve learned to love in ways I have always wished to be loved. It was much easier when I was young before all the betrayals and heartbreaks. But I’m happy to feel myself returning to a place where I can love whether I’m intimately close and from a distance. It has beenContinue reading “Basket Full of Us”
Seasons in the Workforce
“Without change there is no innovation, creativity, or incentive for improvement. Those who initiate change will have a better opportunity to manage the change that is inevitable.” -William Pollard So I’ve been thinking about how I can run a workforce that supports the different seasons of the menstrual cycle. This is what’s coming to mindContinue reading “Seasons in the Workforce”
Femininity, I Remember You
Femininity, I remember you. Now that I’m learning more about my cycle, I’m realizing that everything should be more of a weekly rotation. It’s not about going hard in the am 3-5 times a week and resting on the weekend, like we’ve all been taught. While men have daily phases (morning, noon, and night), womenContinue reading “Femininity, I Remember You”
Our Inner Mindset
“The most life-shaping choices we can make are those of our mindset — we can choose the best orientation toward the world, we can choose the best orientation toward each other, but where we seem to struggle the most is orienting with clarity and compassion toward our own lives, toward the choice we have inContinue reading “Our Inner Mindset”
Last Day of April
I am totally easing my way through this last day of April. Will that slow down time? Probably not, but it increases my well-being. Rushing around isn’t good for your heart or your brain (especially during this upcoming finals week). This week, as we transition into a new month, I’ll be taking walks, sipping butterflyContinue reading “Last Day of April”
Easing My Way Through Spring
Affirmation: “I welcome my emerging visions without rushing them into action.” With a million things to do to prep for summer and other transitions coming up in my life, my goal this week is to take things slow and stay in the present. Some things I had to remind myself this evening: I have everythingContinue reading “Easing My Way Through Spring”
Sunday Solitude
Solitude Sunday is my day to honor myself. I spend the morning cleaning and listening to Christina Aguilera or the Fugees. Then I take myself out to get a small treat and read by myself. After that, I come home and seal my day off with a candle-lit bath. This is something that allows meContinue reading “Sunday Solitude”
