What is in the brown bag? The question that has been nagging us for the last two years! We finally found out and it is not what you expected!

Practicing listening with fresh ears and being willing to change… exploring flexibility and playfulness… could be a blessing in the skies. Sending love to you!

Ooh daylights savings starting the week feeling a little off:( sending love! And reflecting on the types of social connection and experience we yearn for and being intentional about investing in those relationships. Sending you a big hug today!

So many factors influence our experience. When it comes to burnout often we thing that we are wrong, or doing something wrong to feel overwhelmed and run down. Let’s take a step back and look at it from some different perspectives. Sending you so much love today!

After two episodes on complaining I’m not sure the value of keeping the word or concept of complaining in my language or life repertoire. It invalidates and gaslights true dissatisfaction. When is it beneficial to call someone a complainer or to criticize complaining? If we can think of situations then let’s use other words to describe the attitude or behavior we are referring to. Otherwise we perpetuate the oppression our own and others’ feelings and experience.

How do you define complaining? How do you feel about it? The concept of complaining and how we define could be supporting or hindering authentic intimacy.. say more!! This may be more than one episode. What can we learn from how we relate to this concept and one another? Hopefully a heightened awareness and setting intentions about what it means to you.
