Welcome back to The Power of Storytelling!

Gia and Lindsay - thank you for sharing your stories, your words, and your journey with all of us.

This month’s episode reminded me that hindsight is really 2020, and our journey's will always appear so much clearer when we look back with a fresh perspective. When you're in the middle of the journey, when you're in the mud, the confusion, and the uncertainty, it's normal and natural to second guess, to question, and to doubt. But, when you stay the course and stay in trust - everything will unfold the way it's supposed to. 

It’s truly my honor to share the stories and provide the space here to share a little bit more about the change makers behind these words. I encourage you to check out Gia and Lindsay after you listen to this week’s new episode.

Happy #SeekTheJoy Tuesday!

Overwhelm is something we all experience, and over time if we let it do its thing - it can take over our emotional and physical health, leaving us feeling depleted, emotionally drained, and exhausted. Overwhelm is this moment of feeling completely overcome by an intense emotion and feeling that something (or everything) is too much, and too challenging to manage. It’s uncomfortable and it’s defeating,

In this week’s new episode, I talk about overwhelm, the different emotions that are coming up during these truly chaotic, emotional, and isolating times, and my top 7 tips for managing overwhelm. Hint: it starts with managing expectations.

Sending so much love - always remember that you’re not alone. We’re in this together, and we’re all going to be see the other side of this - together.

Welcome back to The Power of Storytelling!

Kaitlyn, Hayley and Nancy - thank you for sharing your stories, your words, and your journey with all of us.

This month’s episode reminded me that our greatest joys often come in the most unexpected ways, and at the most unexpected times. And with that, so does our greatest journey, path, and purpose. Embrace the unexpected, the highs and lows, ups and downs, you never know where it might lead you.

It’s truly my honor to share the stories and provide the space here to share a little bit more about the change makers behind these words. I encourage you to check out Kaitlyn, Hayley and Nancy after you listen to this week’s new episode.

I’ve been thinking a lot about what we can do to stay grounded, and not panic, in the midst of COVID19, a time of uncertainty, chaos, fear, anxiety, and sickness

For me, creating an action plan has always helped me manage my anxiety, stress, and uncertainty. So, I created a little something, in the hopes that sharing my tips for staying grounded amidst this chaos might help you too. What you do on an individual scale has an incredible impact globally. That applies to what we do physically (good hygiene, social distancing, self-quarantine, etc.) and emotionally, physically and spiritually (how we stay grounded, calm, and in a good mindset).

In this new episode, I share my top 8 tips for staying grounded and seeking our joy, tips I've received from you guys about working from home, my views on the chaos and fear, and more. 

Sending so much love - always remember that you’re not alone. We’re in this together, and we’re all going to be see the other side of this - together.
