Motivation can come from two very different places 👀 ✨ Extrinsic motivation says: “What do I get if I do this?” 🌱 Intrinsic motivation asks: “Why does this matter to me?” One chases rewards and approval. The other follows curiosity, values, and growth. Both show up in our lives — but long-term energy, resilience, and wellbeing tend to grow when we shift from external pressure to internal purpose. 💭 Reflection: What’s motivating you right now — and what might change if you leaned a little more into what matters to you? #EmotionalIntelligence #IntrinsicMotivation #ExtrinsicMotivation #PurposeDriven #GrowthMindset

I’m starting chemotherapy today for leukemia/blood cancer. I was diagnosed in 2022. Four years without needing treatment was great, but things progressed over the past year and it’s time. You all have helped me become more authentic with my life and I appreciate you!!

I got a piece of mail today that was addressed to my son who passed away in 2022. It’s not as painful as it was getting his mail in 2022, 2023, etc. it doesn’t make me cry anymore.

✨🕯️As 2026 opens its quiet door, I’m wishing you true prosperity—the kind you can feel in your bones. Prosperity isn’t just money in the bank. It’s peace in the nervous system. It’s relationships you can lean on. It’s time spent on what you’ll never regret. And for those stepping into this new year with an empty chair… I see you. The calendar may change overnight, but the heart doesn’t follow deadlines. If you’re celebrating and aching at the same time, you’re not doing it wrong—you’re loving. So before the year gets loud, here’s my gentle invitation: Choose meaning over motion. Choose presence over performance. Choose truth over habit. Choose love—again and again. One honest question to carry with you: What do I want my life to stand for in 2026? Not what looks impressive. Not what keeps everyone else comfortable. What’s meaningful. What’s real. What leaves you more you? If you’d like, drop one word that you want to guide your 2026—or share a name of someone you’re carrying into this year. We’ll make room at the table. 🫖✨ I'll put the kettle on................ Pam
