Welcome to Earth, my friend... Feeling a bit low today so I decided to spend some time writing and reflecting; came across this journal entry from one of my expressive group therapy sessions. **If you're ever in crisis OR need someone to talk to, CALL or TEXT 988. YOU matter.

Nature is super important to me. It's healing and transformative, in my opinion. Join me as I walk thru Savannah Nature Preserve to reflect and reconnect with self... --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

There's nothing wrong with sharing positivity and good vibes...just make sure you keep some for yourself. No need to deplete your personal supply. Shoutout to my strong support system. Love y'all! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

It's easy to share our traumas, low moments, and frustrations but let's make a habit of sharing our happiness, joy, and excitement as well - those moments are just as important. Focusing on sharing both the "good" and the "bad" may help us find a bit more balance in life!

Happy New Year! The goal for this year is to slow down, focus inward, and slow grow/build a strong foundation. Keep your eyes and ears open - the Universe is speaking to you and you don't want to miss what they have to say. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Ain't that the truth - but we heal and we grow and we begin understand ourselves better. And that's what it's all about.

SPOILER ALERT for Spiderman: No Way Home...I tried to talk around the plot points buuut may have failed. Blame the extra long commute from the theater - Overall, great movie!

Army of the Dead VR, First Watch, good vibes, a d general randomness...nothing new over here! All in all a great day - and just catching y'all up on life.

Plant the seed and be patient - it takes time for the roots to grow. On the surface it may look like things aren't changing but under the soil those roots are thriving - growing stronger as long as you water them and speak gently with good energy. They'll blossom soon enough, watch.

You know when you're having a good day and you just want to share the joy with everyone? Thats where I'm at. Nothing particularly interesting or introspective. Just random happy blurbs! K, enjoy!

More of a life update than anything else - random stuff, nothing super spectacular. SPOILER ALERT for the ending of Army of the Dead...

As winter comes upon us, my mood can dip into darkness much easier. Just trying to stay aware of the slow decline so that I can catch it before it breaks me; constant re-balancing and self-care is key...

...cut them some slack! Talking about the way our parents shaped our lives and how we have to unlearn everything that was taught to get to the core of who we are so we can heal.

Thank you for being here and sharing my journey - not sure why you listen but I appreciate you and I hope I can bring a little love, light, and inspiration to you, even in my darkest moments. Keep going. Keep sharing. Be authentically YOU! You have no idea how that may help someone learn, grow, and/or change their own life. xoxoxo

The last leg of our anniversary trip via Bailey, CO. Beautiful views and a relaxing experience overall. Definitely somewhere to add to the bucket list (if you're a nature lover). **Please forgive the GPS in the background...

Hey-o! These are my fav types of episodes...the ones where I collab with the other half of the marital Dream Team - we're talking about the first half of our anniversary trip as we drive away from Utah, thru Arizona and into Las Vegas. Enjoy the journey!

Another brain dump about authenticity, alignment, release, self-care, and "normalcy".

**WARNING: I dropped a lot of F- bombs in this one...apologies. Rona stresses me out. Other than that, a lot of randomness surrounding reality TV, double dates, insecurities, and upcoming vacations.

Recounting how I dealt with an anxiety attack in the midst of today's walk thru the woods.

Tried it….do not recommend! Also talking about how life is a series of peaks and valleys…

Nothing special - just a quick update about what's been going on in my life. It's a bit scattered cuz that's where my brain is right now...bear with me.

Kumandra is possible...we may not see it in our lifetime but that doesn't mean it'll never happen. Here's to hope...keep the dream alive with every action.

Congratulations to the graduating class of 2021! I'm so proud of you guys! Go forth and prosper.

Happy Friday! Today is a good day so we need to live it to the fullest! Just wanted to take a moment and share some good news - and also let you guys know that all is well. The beginning of the week was pretty rough... Okay enjoy!

As the day progresses, things start to look up. I'm still a little low but at least I can focus enough to answer emails. The support I received today truly touched me - humanity at its finest.

Feeling like an attack is coming so trying to distract myself from it...calm myself down by talking. It helps a bit.

I promised to come back and tell you how I felt after my 2nd Moderna shot...so here you go!

Something slight...a recap of my very uneventful day.

Today is a good day and I want the world to know it!! K, find a reason to smile!!

Follow up to yesterday's entry about feeling out of it. The anger within me grew as the night went on and the violence I felt manifested itself in my dreams...lucky (or unlucky) for me.

Not sure how to describe where I'm at right now. Overall it was a good day but tonight I'm slowly losing it. I think I need to go back into zombie mode to stay sane/balanced. That's not a bad thing, right?

To all the wonderful women out there: you are loved! A big thank you to my mommy for sharing the day with me AND you guys - she's so eloquent!

Me & Hubby talking about our recent trip to Jamaica (amongst other things) - Enjoy!

Hey! Just a quick check-in; I'm still here. Join me as I ramble on about my weekend activities - particularly Artechouse - and my transition from Queen of Horror Movies to a 35 y/o woman who sleeps with the lights on...enjoy!

Just sharing today's beautiful moments and the way the Universe blessed me. Happy Friday! Hope your weekend is wonderful and you find your flow!

It's a beautiful thing when you witness or become the direct recipient of a random act of kindness from a stranger who has no expectation of return. When that happens remember to express gratitude (firstly) and pay it forward (in your own time, without expectation); keep the cycle of unconditional love/kindness flowing in the Universe!

Just wanted to say hello and spread a lil love/happiness - cheers!

Journey to Mushroom Mountain - enough said. Enjoy!

This evening I decided to go thru my positivity notes from 2019. The goal was to write 1 positive thing every day for an entire year. At the end of the year I'd sit down and read thru them all and fill myself up with happiness! ...I gave up halfway thru BUT it's nice to go thru the few I *do* have; it's a good feeling to see that I had so many moments of joy, love, and positivity. It inspires me to start fresh today - and this time, I can make it all the way thru! 1. 2. 3. GO!

Ever feel like your dream was a lil bit too real? Yeah...I was afraid to go back to sleep. Join me as I recount the tale (and scare myself all over again). Also...MY SPIRIT SONG! I'm a Wild Thing at heart. ☺️ You'll understand when you hear the song...ENJOY!

Quick Update on Life - First off, the sun is shining and it's like, 60° so you know that means my energy level is HIGH!! Life seems much more interesting when I'm upbeat...anyway, enjoy the good days while you can!!

It's been a while. Thought I'd stop by with a quick update - the mad hatter's tea party, hypnotherapy, vacation plans, and other random stuff. Basically a hodge podge of mess...y'all know how I do.

In the midst of this attack I felt like the best way to prevent it from getting worse was to keep talking. Sometimes the silence makes it worse; in those moments EVERYTHING seems amplified x 1000. Breathing and talking and remembering how it felt on the snowy lake really brought me back to a more zen state of being, mentally and physically.

...are swimming in my head today. Attempting to recap the Deep Creek vacay and summarize what's been up lately.

I don't even know anymore. What is real and what is a control mechanism? Are we really living in a turtle's dream in outer space??

Finished! What a great ending - Takeaway: Focus on the present; every single present moment/thought is creating the "future"

If you had the opportunity to catch a glimpse of your life 15 years into the future, would you take it? {SPOILER ALERT!!}

It's a long one today - recap of my time at Doodle Hatch last weekend, update on my self defense classes AND an intro to the Taimi app...that part...well, you'll see. Thanks for sticking in there with me. This is super therapeutic!

Ringing in the new year with family (& Netflix)!
