Hey community I'm taking some much needed downtime for the next few days. A little hiking, a little outdoors, and hopefully lots of good food and sleep. I encourage you to set aside time to rest as well. When I get back, I'll have some new Q&As set up in the calendar, and other opportunities for you to connect! See you soon!

Use this link to join - looking forward to seeing you on the chat! Come with all your questions about emotional mastery, anger, anxiety, communication and problem-solving!

Hey everyone! Join me live on June 8th at 2pm EST for a Q and A session. Bring your burning questions - what do you want to know? Types of questions I'll be ready to answer: 1. Emotions - how to recognize them and to "label them" 2. Questions about righteous vs. selfish emotional responses 3. Let's talk communication! All questions about how to say ____________ assertively and safely - I'm here for it. 4. Anything around self-regulation and anger resolution. I'm looking forward to this first live! Will you be joining us?

I haven't posted much this week because I have been away doing hard things and first things. It is my first time traveling alone with my brother. My first time to Jamaica where I have not stayed in my parents' home. This hasn't been a trip for fun, but we are finding fun where we can. Mixing a business meeting with Devon House ice cream, hitting the pool instead of going to the beach. Laughing over foolishness and making others laugh too. Eating honestly Jamaican food every night and searching for the perfect beef patty (Devon House for the win). Yesterday was my late mom's birthday. And we were in her and my dad's house doing hard things. I told my brother that this thing we're doing for dad is a "great sadness", but I am also profoundly grateful that we are able to stand in his place to make decisions on his behalf. I'm grateful for the many lessons I have learned on this trip, and thankful for the gifts we've been given while here, even if we didn't get to do all the things we wanted to. The point of this post? Treasure your loved ones when they are with you. Live responsibly. Trust the right people. Make things easy when you can - for yourself and others. Be a blessing whenever you can, wherever you can. Life is too short - so live to the fullest. I will be back next week and I look forward to sharing more insights with you! #musings #gratitude
