Emotions
How many times have you dismissed how you’re feeling, hoping it will just go away on its own if you ignore it? Has it ever been helpful? Has it ever created a stronger, bigger reaction in a following situation because it was simmering under the surface, waiting for the next opportunity to arise?…
Read MoreBe Yourself
Be yourself. Sometimes those two words are enough to stir confusion and overwhelm. What does it mean to be yourself? Who are you? Who do you know you to be? Who do others know you to be? **Spoiler alert** this is not going to answer the deep question of…
Read MoreRebirth
We all have a story. Sometimes the story is embraced and sometimes it is rejected. Sometimes we integrate our story and sometimes we want to tuck it away to never have to look at it again. The important thing to understand is that our story helps inform who we are in…
