Hello friends. Happy New Year! I know it’s been awhile since writing. As 2018 came to a close, I found myself reflecting on all the changes and new opportunities that the year brought. My book launch, new clients + projects, shifting relationships and some unexpected circumstances, collectively created a ripple of open-heartedness that left me feeling both [...]
The holidays can be an exciting time of year. But let’s be honest, it can be a stressful time as well. This can show up as an influx of social opportunities, family togetherness, or even holiday travel. But to our bodies – stress is stress, regardless of the source. So all the more reason to [...]
