Sometimes, the most powerful thing you can do is simply… show up.

Not perfectly.
Not with the whole plan figured out.
Not with boundless motivation.

Just show up—especially when it’s hard.

And most importantly, show up for yourself.

Are you settling in life? In your relationship? In your friendships, career, or even within yourself? It’s time to pause and reflect:

Sometimes, we need that pause. Because let’s be honest — we put a lot of pressure on ourselves. To do more. Be more. Have more. Achieve more.

How many times a day does your mind race with thoughts that don’t empower you? Thoughts that create anxiety and stress, and make you feel inadequate, overwhelmed, and pressured to do more, be more, and want more?

It's easy to find yourself comparing your journey to others or chasing after societal and social media ideals. This can lead you to believe that you should be following a different path, pulling you further away from your true desires.

Do you ever find yourself having one of those days, or one of those weeks…where you have so much on your plate that you’re in a constant state of overwhelm?

It’s that time of year again, with New Year’s resolutions in full force and the dream of a successful 2024 ready to be activated.

Simplifying the holidays can help reduce stress and anxiety and create space for what matters most. Here are 10 easy ways to help you simplify the holidays:

What is a “normal” amount of stress? Is one amount of stress okay for you, and another amount ok for me? Or is no amount ok for either of us? And what exactly does stress look like, and how does it affect us?

I get it. You’re working hard. Putting others' needs first. Putting the job first, the kids first, and all the other “shit” first. You’re not taking good care of yourself as you should. You’re saying yes when you want to say no.
