Let’s Learn to Build Capacity Together
Are you ready to learn how to build capacity for ALL the FEELINGS? When we describe ourselves as FEELING STUCK, it's a clear indicator that we're NOT PROCESSING EMOTIONS. Oh, we are FEELING all the FEELINGS but they just won't go away! So then we just try to ignore them (ask me how I know). [...]
Magical Motherhood? Tell Me More!
Hey, Mama, are you mentally preparing yourself for Back-to-Homeschool? Remember to take some time to marinate in the truth of your WHY! Pour over GOOD BOOKS, listen to encouraging Podcasts, binge homeschooling blogs (like mine 😉 ) peruse Pinterest for ideas for crafts, games, or activities that will easily flow with your lesson plans.

Getting Comfortable With Being Uncomfortable is a SUPERPOWER!
Getting comfortable with being uncomfortable is a true SUPERPOWER! There’s the pleasure of something going our way and then there’s the pleasure of it not, and being able to do the inner work and press more into our true self. The ability to SUPPORT OURSELVES so we can still feel peaceful inside even if the [...]

Are You Giving Your Best Self to Everyone Else?
Do you ever feel like you're giving your best to everyone else? You seem to have so much patience for your co-workers, or your boss, or your employees, or even the cashier at the store, but you get home after a long day and your child's behavior seems to push all your buttons. I get [...]
I Didn’t Know What I Was Missing
Have you ever said to yourself, “I just want to enjoy these children that I prayed for! This is the exact life I prayed for so why am I so frustrated all the time? UGH! Why does it have to be so hard?” I want you to know that I see you and hear you, [...]
Why Are My Kids So Hyper?
What if instead of the thought, "My children are so hyper" you had the thought, "My children are so VIBRANT!" "They are so FULL of ENERGY and LIFE!" Did you know that your EMOTIONS are CREATED by your THOUGHTS? Yes, every single one of them. So, if you want to FEEL DIFFERENTLY about your children, [...]
