blog + what's on my mind

Are you constantly worried about what other people think, overwhelmed with all the to-dos racing in your mind, or simply feeling mentally “messy”? If so, you are not alone and there is nothing wrong with you! Especially if you have a lot on your plate, you’re feeling exhausted or you’re going through a tougher time. […]

Find yourself feeling behind most days or thinking “I don’t have enough time for it all!”? While those thoughts still creep up for me, they don’t have the same power over me or stress me out like they used to. BUT, this summer I had a realization . . . What if we just accept […]

Are you at the end of yet another week where you worked more hours than you wanted to, you’re feeling exhausted, and realizing that you haven’t taken a moment for yourself? TGIF, right?! And maybe you’re excited for the weekend, but also feeling like you have little energy for much else and already worrying about […]
