The other day, I saw a TikTok about being passionate. The scenario is one person asking someone else about what they were really passionate about as a kid, and the other person’s eyes light up as she starts talking about what her childhood passion was. Eventually, though, she starts to feel self-conscious and apologizes for rambling. The first person stops …
Life is truly a rollercoaster. It’s full of excitement, highs, fear, lows, uncertainty and regret. Those are probably all some of the feelings you’ve had, before, during or after a rollercoaster ride. Right now my rollercoaster is in one of those low spots. It’s been so frustrating to watch my mom fight pancreatic cancer for the last year and a …
As a society, we tend not to prioritize self-care and mental wellness. We are a career-focused people, and we typically let work take precedence over wellness. With all that has happened in the past year, though, that mentality is starting to change. I’ve noticed the change in my own life, especially over the past few weeks as my work has …
I woke up this morning like, “oh crap, I don’t know what to write about for tomorrow’s blog.” I still really don’t. I am feeling less than inspirational. But I think the really cool thing about blogging or journaling is that there is a flow to it. Once I start writing, some idea just starts to come and I start …
Thank you for being you. Thank you for being who you are. We have all likely heard the quote, “the world needs more of you” 100 times, but it is so true. The world needs more of you and all the beauty that you add to it. This week, I did a presentation where for the second time ever on …
I know I am not alone when I say I struggled with the “supposed to’s”. It was my birthday week, so it was supposed to be a great week. And for the most part, it was. But it really all felt like it came crashing down the day after when I felt really self-conscious about a lot of things. My …
I am so proud of you. For fighting through the pain. For continuing to move forward, despite all of the days you wanted to give up. For choosing you, even when other choices seemed more desirable. For choosing to see the light within the darkness. For choosing to not settle. For choosing to be who you are, despite what others …
What a whirlwind 2020 has been. Many of us will look back at this year of all that it took from us. 2020 has been incredibly difficult. 2020 has taken away security in so many ways, it has taken away stability, it has taken away coping mechanisms that we once had, like spending time with friends and family or playing …
Always remember that who you are is a gift. You are a gift to this world just by being you. We don’t give ourselves enough credit. We can be so mean to ourselves for our mistakes, and be so compassionate to a friend for that very same mistake. It’s great you can see the good in others and be kind …
A reminder to myself – I know it’s hard, but don’t be so hard on yourself. I saw this quote the other day that read, “While you’re being overly critical of yourself, someone is admiring your strength.” And I thought to myself, how absolutely true. My anxiety lately has been through the roof. I wrote about this last week, but …
