  • 68. Same Trip & Destination, Different Experiences

    We can find ourselves having very different experiences, even though we are side by side in the same situation, on the exact same journey with the people we love!  

    Realizing we are not experiencing things exactly the same and looking to find a baseline goal can be very helpful when trying to navigate certain situations.

  • 64. It's Going to be OK

    I know the weight of overwhelm and despair. I know it feels like the world is on fire.  I know how easy it is to want to retreat to isolation. 

    I encourage you to love and nurture yourself right now.  Keep things simple and look for those seeds of hope.  Seek wise counsel and not get so caught up in the play by play.  Turn down the dial and refuel yourself. Stay connected to nature, higher powers, intuition and hope.  There is always hope and it's gonna be OK.  I love you.
