Explore new perspectives without a complete overhaul
This month of January tends to bring some feelings with it (anyone?) 👋 For some people, it’s all “new year, new goals, let’s go!” 🎉For others, it’s quieter - a pause, a checking-in, a wondering what the year ahead might hold. 👓And for some… it honestly just feels like just another week on the calendar. 📆 There’s a common thread I keep hearing when people talk about work... A sense that something wants to shift. Not necessarily in a “quit your job tomorrow” kind of

Feeling Stretched Thin? Try This.
Happy December to you! We’ve officially entered the season of “so much to do, so little capacity.” The plans, the people, the pressure — it all piles up fast 🏔️. And even if you’ve been cruising through the year, the holidays have a special talent for turning the dial all the way up . 🔥 So this month, I’m sharing two simple tools from my Sustainable Self-Care workshop to help you stay grounded, sane, and maybe even enjoy yourself a little. 👇 First up: Setting an Intentio

🐾What My Dog Taught me About Self-Love
Our dog, Cali, came into our lives when she was just 8 months old — a super sweet, aloof, rescue pup who immediately stole our hearts. My husband and I love her so much .🐾😍 What amazes me though, is how much love she gives us. Even when I’ve lost my patience or accidentally stepped on her paw (the guilt!), she continues to show up with total, unconditional love. She follows me around the house, looks at me with complete admiration, and gets visibly sad when I grab my pur

The Weight We're All Feeling (And How to Keep Your Power Anyway)
Let’s be honest — things feel heavy AF right now.**air high five?!** 😕 Work feels different. The world feels tense. Everyone’s tired. Between layoffs, “do more with less” messaging, constant change, and, well, everything else that's happening in this country… gosh, it’s a lot. 💯 And yet most of us are still showing up trying to act like we’re fine. Because...that’s what we’ve been taught to do — keep it together, be grateful, stay positive. But pretending everything’s

Stop Waiting For 'Someday'
For years, earlier on in my professional career, I thought that if I just show up, do hard work, keep my head down... eventually someone will notice and give me what I want and what I deserve. ➡️ Spoiler alert: it doesn't happen like that. Sure, I was seen as “the dependable one” — which I think we can all agree basically means the person we can pile more work on because they won’t complain . And what I've learned through coaching clients and conversations with friends, th

What if the problem isn’t what you think?
If there’s one thing you may not know about me yet, it's this - I ❤️ a good personality assessment. Give me a Strengthsfinder, Enneagram, DISC, Myers-Briggs… I’m in! I’ve taken them all — not just once, but probably a few times each — and I’m endlessly curious about what they reveal. (If we’ve worked together, chances are I’ve asked you your type too. I just can't help it.) Lately, I’ve been getting daily self-insights through a portal my employer provides. It pulls from
