I have been in a season of letting go for a while now. It seems appropriate that it has ramped up more recently, right in the middle of the fall season. The leaves are doing the very same thing and in a very short amount of time we will be beginning a new year. Continue reading “Let IT Go”

Is what you are committed to holding you back?
You are committed to exactly how your life looks at this very moment, as am I. Many of the commitments that are present may be ones that you are completely unaware of, yet they are driving your life and shaping how it looks on a day-to-day basis. Going unrecognized, these commitments can side swipeContinue reading “Is what you are committed to holding you back?”
Love Every Picture
We were at home the other day when my 4 year old son says, “Mommy, can you take a picture of me?” So, I snapped a picture with an old digital camera that we had given him a while back. He proceeded to say, “let me see the picture mommy,” looked at it and said,Continue reading “Love Every Picture”
Are you focused on what you want or the weeds?
I don’t know about you, but there are times in my life when it seems there has been one too many painful things causing hurt to myself or those I love. Many people claim that these events come in 3’s and I’m not sure if I’d say that, but they seem to come together. WhetherContinue reading “Are you focused on what you want or the weeds?”
Who is getting the best of you?
“You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.” – Jim Rohn. This quote rocked my world a few years back. I had never examined my life in a way to determine which relationships were serving my best self and my vision. You see, I come from a place ofContinue reading “Who is getting the best of you?”
WANT A BETTER LIFE? READ THIS.
Just the other day my son, who is almost 5 years old, said, “you guys hurt my feelings.” I replied by saying, “I’d like to talk about that.” He said, “well, only I can hurt my feelings.” And I said, “wouldn’t you rather choose to feel something different?” He closed the conversation by saying, “yes,Continue reading “WANT A BETTER LIFE?

Live like you are dying
Begin with the end in mind. I always seem to stumble back to the idea that we all have an expiration date and no-one knows when that time may be. Ultimately, we all have a limited time here on earth. I have always had this perspective, but it has been reinforced in the past fewContinue reading “Live like you are dying”
Are you decaying or improving?
It’s 6:20 am on the Sunday morning of Memorial Day weekend and our smoke alarms start to go off, going from the chirp (indicate needing a battery replacement), to a full on scream to let us know there may be a fire present. You have all been there and know that it is impossible toContinue reading “Are you decaying or improving?”
Fill Your Cup
It’s all too easy to wake up, my feet hitting the floor, scroll through notifications on my phone, respond to messages and herein begins the monkey brain of reactivity, putting out fires and my life living me, instead of me living my life. From here, my day is a day of reaction instead of intention.Continue reading “Fill Your Cup”
A Trip to the Grocery Store and a Hug from a Stranger
My typical trip to the grocery store looks a little something like this: I have my list of items, go as fast as I possibly can through the store and find the fastest possible checkout line. Sometimes I’ll even put a podcast on during that time. Lately however, I have been intentional about focusing onContinue reading “A Trip to the Grocery Store and a Hug from a Stranger”
