Let Yourself Rest in Unconventional Ways (4pm movie, anyone?)

Two days ago, the clock struck 4:00pm and all I was secretly craving was to close up my computer, get under a blanket on the couch and watch a movie. For a brief moment, I heard my inner critic interject…

Your inner critic needs to hear this.

This week on my Instagram stories, I showed myself winding down from my work day by taking a moment to let go of any critical or judgmental thoughts toward myself or my day before going into the evening with my family. I do this because so much happens in a day. You start out feeling…

My Curated Holiday Gift Guide is HERE!

Please stop judging yourself like this

Yesterday I was on a call with a client who just broke things off with a guy she was dating for a couple of months. She said “I was only dating him for a couple of months, I ‘shouldn’t’ be this sad. I don’t ‘get to be’ this sad”. Mmm, immediately my coaching ears perked up…

When You Want Something To Work Out, And It Doesn’t

As you may have seen on Instagram last week, Ryan and I put an offer down on a house we loved and were under contract. In the last 24 hours before putting down our deposit, the whole deal collapsed.

Keep Your Commitments To Yourself

There’s something I’ve been thinking about a lot lately that I want to share. It’s about keeping your commitments to yourself, and what that does for your self-trust, your growth, and your confidence.

Today we celebrate 1 year of marriage. 🥂1.19.20 Today we celebrate 1 year of marriage. 🥂1.19.20.

When it comes to talking about Ryan and our relationship, I can never seem to find the words. There’s too much to say. And words just never seem to be able to do it justice - to express how I feel about him and about us.

But in this moment, I just feel so grateful.

Grateful to be so in love with someone.

Grateful that I had the courage to listen to myself years ago when I asked him “is there more between us?”.

Grateful I never let my pride or fear of rejection get in the way.

Grateful I let myself go for “what most excited me” and let that be enough.

Grateful that Ryan took many many leaps beyond his fears and cautious nature to give this a go.

Grateful for all of our hard moments this year which made us infinitely stronger.

Grateful for all that we have.

Grateful for our people.

Grateful we got to have a wedding and celebrate before a year of isolation.

Grateful for our health, our love, and being exactly where we are.

This was a hell of a year. Some things didn’t go as we would have hoped, some things did, but as Ryan always reminds me, we are exactly where we are supposed to be.

Ryan, I love you so freaking much, and can’t wait for Year #2!!
I used to hate my insecurities. I wanted them to I used to hate my insecurities.

I wanted them to all go away so I could be a confident woman who never felt self-doubt or cared what anyone thought or worried she wouldn’t be liked.

Sounds nice right? Yeaaa doesn’t work.

But here’s what I’ve learned:

You…me…the most confident woman in the world… 

We all have insecurities + we always will.

They aren’t going anywhere!

🌈And here’s the kicker… the more we fight them, the LESS confident we actually feel.

✨Because really, we’re fighting a part of who we are. We’re REJECTING a part of ourselves.

💋And when we fight who we are, how can we possibly expect ourselves to feel confident?

👉🏻So… here’s what I’ve learned to do instead:

1 - You stop fighting. You stop fighting the parts of you that worry you’re not good enough or smart enough or thin enough or likable enough. You stop getting angry at them + wishing they would just POOF go away because then your life would be so much easier.

2 - Instead, you let them be there. You get to know them + understand them. You give them love + acceptance. You soften toward them.

3 - AND, you remember they are only your insecurities. They are not real or true or aligned with your highest self.  You remember who you really are and what is really true. You remember that you’re enough and that anything is possible for you.

4 - You take your insecurities by the hand and you courageously walk forward with them, toward exactly what you want. You don’t let them stop you. ✌🏻

5 - You realize that as you do this more + more, the power your insecurities have over you softens. Your confidence grows because you’re no longer rejecting any parts of yourself. You’re integrating all of who you are. It’s a win-win.

👉🏻Do you fight your insecurities? Do you wish so badly they’d just go away? If so, does this help you think about a new way of integrating them?💋
INTRODUCING MY NEW WEBSITE + NEW COMMUNITY! // It INTRODUCING MY NEW WEBSITE + NEW COMMUNITY! //

It’s all finally here 👏🏻👏🏻+ this is why I created everything you’re about to see:

As you know, life is crazy. Especially right now -- life can feel overwhelming, disorienting, and heavy. On a global level, and on a personal level, too.

And while life feels particularly messy in this moment, the truth is there is always something. A curveball, an unexpected challenge, or a dark season.

And here’s what I want you to know:

✨No matter what life throws at you, the stronger your inner world is, the better you can handle it.

🪴The spaces I create are meant to help you feel the absolute best you can feel + create the life you want and deserve, no matter what is going on around you.

I’m here to help you:

* navigate messiness with grace

* feel confident enough to speak your truth + value your own voice

* feel so connected to your joy + pleasure, always

* put an end to constant self-criticism + stop the inner battles

* make intuitive decisions, even if nobody else gets it

* transform your belief system + liberate yourself to create the life you really want

🧘🏻‍♀️You may not be able to control what happens on the outside, but you can shift what’s happening within you.
