Memorable Quotes"Emotions are energy in motion, and the best thing we can do is allow them to be felt if or when they visit during the holidays. They are not permanent residents.""You're not broken because you are feeling these emotions. You're navigating your path with courage, and that deserves to be honored and celebrated."“Choosing to put yourself first and honor your emotions is not selfish; it is the foundation for healing and genuine connection within yourself."Connect With Amie
