ARE YOU AFRAID?
I have been finding myself bumping up against fears lately. Fears in being an adult and facing hard things. Fears in building new connections. Fears in raising a little girl who is on her own path and journey. Why are we so afraid of being afraid? Before the fear can fully burst into flames inside of us, we try to rush and solve and fix and build a story around it. To extinguish it. Some of us hate feeling afraid. We hate the thoughts it brings. We hate the sleepless nights.

YOUR BOAT.
Hi my loves- I’m hoping this love letter reaches anyone who’s been in a shaming cycle with themselves. Feeling like you’re not doing enough. Like you aren’t fully where you want to be in life. Like you haven’t quite achieved enough. Maybe sitting in any judgmental feels against your own being. Finding yourself in those heavy overthinking cycles and hating it. Or making some of the same decisions you said you weren’t going to. This hug is for you, babe. The Analogy Queen (my

YES, AND...
Hey family- Hope everyone living in the wintery parts of the world are staying safe, warm and covered. This morning I was snuggled in bed scrolling through social media and taking in all the various and layered chaos erupting all around us in this country. It’s a lot. It can easily overwhelm, overstimulate and flat out suck us all the way up. I wanted to remind or introduce the “yes, and…” concept which helps us to find some balance between the reality of what is, which ca

I HAVE A QUESTION FOR YOU
How does 2026 feel? For me, I’m riding with nature (lol), still in rest and hibernation mode. I did very much appreciate everyone being on the same page about closing out 2025 in a quiet and restful way and January feeling like a clean slate for the collective. Feels good. I’ve had several themes cross my path that I’ve wanted to send letters about and this morning I realized I have a compilation of questions, really. So, the questions I have this morning are… WHAT IS YOU

END OF YEAR VIBES
We’ve made it to the end of 2025 y’all (just about). What a year full of SO much. I know many of us are in Christmas mode and then 2026 will be here fast and furiously next week. As we round out this year, I wanted to send a reminder to check in with yourself and see if you are being heavily influenced on how you should be feeling or into any actions that you should be taking. From me to you, it’s 100% okay to be authentic to yourself right now, with whatever vibes you

HEALING IN YOUR CAVE
I have a little visual to share, stay with me really quick lol. Imagine you’re in a cave. Exploring by yourself and trying to uncover jewels but it’s pitch dark. And you have no shoes, no light. After navigating for a while you’ve used your own knowledge and awareness to find a few gems but it’s hard. You’re get frustrated and stumble into all kinds of rocks on the ground and run into walls. Like you’re roaming around aimlessly just trying to get by. Reactively instead of pr
