What if we defy the suggestion I put forth yesterday and we are utterly impatient? What if we are impatient with ourselves and impatient with others? What if that impatience leads to bad decisions? What if we act impulsively and then, regret that impulsivity? Time to kick the shit out of ourselves, right? Nah. That… Continue reading Forgiveness? Sure.

I’ll take two servings of patience, tx.
Ready for more? I hope so. What experiences, habits and people brought me the most joy? How can I incorporate more of these into my life? These questions are a tall order when looking back. A quick glance back doesn’t bring about visions of hope or joy. I’m not miserable, at all, but also, I… Continue reading I’ll take two servings of patience, tx.
Question #1
I welcomed us all into the new year last week. Kind of me, no? Ha. I know. And the week before I engaged in a sort of reliable and tedious count down to the new year, delving into some widely held misconceptions that harm us. I also engaged in the exploration of some really important… Continue reading Question #1
Spend your energy wisely…
I started this with a diatribe on posts about the new year and ended it with another reminder to be yourself, always. Does that feel old to you? Overdone? It’s not. We talk an awful lot about being ourselves. We talk about finding ourselves and our truth and living an authentic life. We even do… Continue reading Spend your energy wisely…
Excellent.
I know you might have left yesterday feeling a bit perplexed. Was I asking you to change to accommodate someone or something else? Not even a little. I was asking you to start to consider how you can move into new spaces that feel infinitely more agreeable. I want to give you a substantive example… Continue reading Excellent.
Approval is a fickle little b*tch.
We talked about how to respond in a way that shuts down an analysis of your life. What I want to talk about now is how you actually make choices to live in a way that’s not the “norm” without feeling badly about it. I think it’s important to be clear that I am not… Continue reading Approval is a fickle little b*tch.
MYOB.
Were you wondering where I was going with all of this? Maybe not. Either way, I’m obviously going to tell you. That’s what we are here for, generally speaking. I think most of us are uncomfortable breaking free from what is considered to be the norm. Even when we don’t fully understand the norm, or… Continue reading MYOB.
Don’t wash your face, girl (it’s fine).
Welcome to 2022. I know. A day(s) late and many dollars short. Still, here we are, right? I tend to avoid intense social media scrolling in the first week of the year. It’s likely not what you think. I don’t make resolutions as a general rule and if I did, it wouldn’t include a social… Continue reading Don’t wash your face, girl (it’s fine).
Happy New Year.
I forgot to post yesterday. Feels on brand for the year, eh? Anyway...here it is: Well, it’s almost here. A new year. What will this year bring? That’s such a terrifying thought on some level, right? I think we all stepped into 2021 thinking that things were going to get decidedly better and then bam,… Continue reading Happy New Year.
The 30th.
Almost there. We are creeping towards a new year with each day that passes. Are you excited? Devastated? Hesitant? What are you feeling? I want to run through an exercise to show you how it’s done (well, how I do it anyway), but first I want to close one more loop that I’ve left open.… Continue reading The 30th.
