Do you find it difficult to create balance in your life? I reflect on Will Smith's interview with Jay Shetty (you can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDYMizH73cc) and how I often struggled to keep true to myself.

Does the struggle sometimes feel like forever? The struggles we go through are what we need to become the butterfly of our life. 

This morning I listened to Lisa Nichols talk about how the butterfly must experience the struggle in order to gain the strength to fly. This is an image that has been a powerful message for me since leaving my abusive marriage 20 years ago. 

Below is the poem I read in the video.

Emergence ~ by Jocelyn Parkhurst  

I was content   

Within the confines of my newfound freedom   

To be strong   

To move forward   

To take care of everything.

Then the shell cracked.   

I had grown beyond the walls that held me,   

These walls of freedom.   

I wanted more.    

A warm wind woke desire.   

A soft light beckoned through the cracks.   

Intrigued, I struggled   

And sought my escape.    

You did not reach back for me,   

You did not crack the shell and peel pieces away.   

You did not wipe slime from my eyes   

Nor knock remnants off my skin.    

You did so much more. 

You cheered each struggle,   

You showed me where pieces clung to my skin,   

You pointed to the way of escape.   

Always letting me fight my way.    

I emerged   

Unfurling the wings of my beauty,   

My true freedom.   

Bathing in my light.

In my Friday morning coffee talk, I tell how my slogan Celebrate Life and Soar Free is the story of the caged bird. When others sing the song of freedom to us, we fight to free ourselves from our own limiting beliefs. We can then sing the song of freedom to others!

Today I talk about my self-love journey. First, I had to accept who I was at 350 lbs and love who I was. I also had to accept others for who they are and love them too.

Can we use religion to understand our minds and create wholeness rather than division?   

In my Sunday Morning Coffee talk, I discuss how great religions are about helping people become happy, or practical psychology, and how this can be used to create connections and wholeness.

Do you stress over what you have to do each day? Taking tips from Tony Robbins, I shifted how I think about grading student work.

What thought do you have that takes time away from you? What can you think of instead?  

In my morning coffee talk #13, I discuss how I learned to shift my thought time from those things that took away from me to those that served. Mainly, how to shift thoughts of my past abuser to thoughts of gratitude and self-love.
