The mavens both collected inspiring quotes starting at a young age. Join us as we laugh and ponder the journey through personal challenges, in and through!
W. Somerset Maugham: It’s a funny thing about life: if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it.
Alain de Botton: To love is to be generous in your interpretation of another’s behavior.
Ralph Waldo Emerson: What lies behind us and what lies before us are all tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
Luck is the residue of design - author unknown.
It takes an awful lot of faith to believe that a woman is built like her clothes make her seem to be. - author unknown
Fashion - trends in body work discussion.
Arthur Schopenhauer: It is difficult to find happiness within oneself, but it is impossible to find it anywhere else.
Discussion about Reclaiming Joy, Bring your team together.
Personal story about psoriasis, tell the story you want to hear, using imagery as a healing tool. Does the thing you are living with have to dominate your life or can you still be in a state of appreciation/gratitude while working through the hard things that show up (chronic or acute pain, loss, injury, health concern, etc).
Our bodies are doing millions of tiny tasks at all times and it’s easy to forget how amazing they are when pain presents itself.
“To feel anything was to feel pain” was one woman’s experience before healing began. Remembering that there is often a hidden filter, which is pain. Very little cultural support/holding space for one another regarding the experience of pain. “it’s kind of lonely (on a pain journey)”. “Pain is an entity in the room.” Surge in awareness of how important mental health care is. Verbalize your needs so others can help you.

Rumi as translated by Coleman Barks in his book The Essential Rumi: Are you jealous of the Ocean’s generosity? Why would you refuse this joy to anyone? Fish don’t hold the sacred liquid in cups! They swim the huge fluid freedom.
Ralph Waldo Emerson: Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could, some blunders and absurdities, no doubt, crept in. Forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You should begin it as serenely and with too-high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.
