Are you feeling as steamrolled as I am right now? With all the end-of-school-year stuff and summer chaos layered on top of real life, Iâve been feeling stretched way too thin. Teacher gifts, graduations, birthday parties, snack duty, travel planningânot to mention democracy being at stake and doing my best to run a one-woman businessâitâs […]
âWaitâŚdid we sit on the wrong side?ââDo we move? Is it rude to move?!â I whispered to my husband. We were at a wedding this past weekend in beautiful Napa, California, as guests of the bride, a dear friend of mine. SoâŚwe sat on the left, following the seating style weâd used at our own […]
I posted this on Instagram a few days ago, and based on the comments and private messages, I thought you’d want to see it too.

Three totally unrelated, recent moments gave me the same insight. Iâve been thinking about identity: how the way we see ourselves directly shapes the choices we make, how big we let ourselves dream, and the lives we build based on what we believe weâre capable of and worthy of. Moment one:I posted a photo on my Instagram […]
This weekâs note is simple. Just something I wanted to share in case youâve been feeling offâannoyed, reactive, over it. Hereâs a ~17-minute video someone close to me shared that is such a good reminder to let go of the stuff that doesnât deserve your energy: âśď¸ Nobody and Nothing Will Affect You Again I don’t know […]
This past weekend, I attended the Burnout Relief Wellness Retreat hosted by my friend, Kelseyâit was a gorgeous couple days filled with yoga, a sound bath, meaningful conversations, and much-needed space to breathe. And while most of the weekend I was soaking it all in as a guest (yes to solo hotel rooms!), I also had the […]
Last week, I had a 90-minute Strategy Session with a client; letâs call her M. Before each session, I ask clients to come in with two things: 1. A big-picture goal 2. A clear intention for what they want to walk away with that day Mâs big goal = To live her most luxurious lifeHer session goal = Develop […]
Over the past few weeks, Iâve been sharing a belief-shifting series: real tools for untangling the sticky, sneaky thoughts that keep us stuck (even when we know better). If you’re just jumping in, hereâs where weâve been so far:Part 1: My bestie is fake. Yet Iâm in love. 𼰠Visualizing your future self through âas ifâ journaling […]
