"We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit."- Will Durant Most of us spent some time as 2025 was beginning setting intentions, choosing a word, and writing goals—to manifest what we want. As we looked back at our year in review, we may have seen the learning, the growth, the heartache, and heart opening. I know I did. As we look at this year ahead, we see hope and ideas—wanting to make it the best yet. All of this is well and good, yet there is more here than...

"There is no right or wrong. It’s then versus now." - Rob Bell I've lived most of my life in fear of being bad or wrong. Sure, I've always been a confident go-getter who doesn't take shit, yet behind the scenes, my mind had a program running that no matter what I did, someone would be upset or I'd get in trouble. This fear caused me to make a lot of choices that hurt me or others. It flavored everything I did with an energy of "I hope no one gets upset," even when I KNEW in my conscious mind...

The day she showed up in my life, I was insecure at first. I had never seen someone so attractive, delightful, and generous. I’d heard so many stories about her, and now I could see for myself what she was really like. As she strolled into my life with her luxurious look and fresh perspective, I knew I wanted to be her friend. She fit into my life pretty easily, yet I questioned how that was possible. My biggest worry: I wasn’t going to fit into her life. You see, I had been living in...

So as I was sitting with my friend reflecting on all of this, we decided that 2024 has been "Awfully Wonderful." I love a...

We spent time shifting old patterns of scarcity, uncovering beautiful childhood memories, and painting a sunset in watercolor. The whole trip was truly remarkable. And then I came home to this: Huffiness over the Pantone color of the year being Mocha Mousse A health insurance CEO was assassinated in NYC The Canadian postal service is...
