YES! Moments:

“Our heaviest and most painful experiences carry our most important messages—and they’re heavy because sometimes it’s the only way we’ll stop to listen.”

“What I was refusing to see is that midlife changes the rules of engagement.”

“This isn’t about becoming weaker. This is about becoming wiser. It’s about creating a sustainable relationship with success that honors both our ambition and our humanity.”

“Sometimes, we just need to respect the timing of things in our life.”

“A life you love isn’t built on shoulds or on a timeline, it’s built on soul deep YESES!—and conversations at that level sometimes need space, they sometimes need no schedule.”

“The bravest thing you can do is change course when your soul is calling for something different.”
