"What's goin' on? How are you doing? What are your pain points today?" During my 2.5 years at TrustWorkz, I heard these questions just about every day from James. And I've been thinking about this particular aspect of my job there a lot lately. At the time, I had no...
In Jen Pastiloff's retreats and workshops, she has a prompt that asks: What are you saying "yes" to? In our lives, we say no to so much. Fear, anxiety, and depression keep us from saying yes even when we want to, and I am no stranger to saying no because yes is far...
"Rewrite the narrative," a friend reminded me this morning, after I spent 20 minutes on the phone with her recounting my somewhat self-inflicted shitty day prior. I had gone down a old email rabbit hole, and spent my lunch break reading emails from 8 or 9 years prior,...
When I booked Jen Pastiloff's Manifestation retreat for myself, I wasn't entirely sure what to prepare myself for. I'd been to Jen's one-day workshop, and had my heart cracked open in just a few short hours. I knew that I wanted an excuse/reason to visit Italy again...
We have the keys. To a home that, at times, I thought would never be ours. I'm pretty sure I've had more gray hair appear in the last two months than I've ever had (and this could be in part due to the fact that I'm about to be 33, and 33-year-olds have problems like...
"You are a mighty manifestation machine!" This is what my friend Nadia said to me one time a couple years ago, after we were discussion all that life had brought my way. Until the last few years, I didn't realize how strong of a force believing things into being, or...
Because if so, sign me up. I need someone to tell me exactly where to go, how to get there, and how to avoid pulling my hair out on the way there. (And if the narrating voice could be David Tennant, that'd be grrrreat.) I've been going through old posts over the last...
2016, you've been...like an ex-boyfriend that has taught me much about myself but someone I don't ever want to revisit. But like any relationship, it did have some lessons. Since I've been terrible about journaling or keeping any sort of record, here's what I can...
"Now I'll get to the part that you're really wanting to know, which is, yes, Grayson is on the Autism Spectrum, grouped under the high-functioning area of autism, but he is considered to be on the spectrum." Grayson is on the Autism Spectrum. I think I said that...
We've all heard that quote that's mis-attributed to Benjamin Franklin about "beer being proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy," but I'm fairly certain the same can be said for tacos. In fact, I'd argue that tacos > beer. (Keep your pants on, beer...
