I did a thing this weekend. I learned how to ride a ripstik. What is it? It’s like a skateboard but only with 2 wheels, one at the back, one at the front. (I’ll post a video on IG so proud!) As I watched my oldest son try and fail, try and fail, try, try, …

AND IT’S OKAY.
Here’s a fun thing to try on this weekend. Whenever you catch yourself sharing or complaining or straight out stating a problem – add. “AND IT’S OKAY” at the end. Just try it on for fun. I am tired. And it’s okay. It’s been such a long week. And it’s okay. I’m single parenting this …
Failure is just a feeling
I said I will do something and I didn’t. That’s the math of the situation. . The drama of the situation is I feel like a failure. . Separate the math and the drama. Math is always simple and neutral. Drama is always charged and dramatic lol:) . The morning fight with your kid: Math …
Let what’s true be true
“If we beat ourselves up for our truth it’s like an assault. Just let what’s true be true.” -Brooke Castillo So often I notice myself getting frustrated with myself because of what’s true for me. I see the same with my clients and friends. It feel terrible and keeps us stuck in the loop where …
I love all humans.
“I love all humans.” My coach says that sometimes. That is why I think she is so successful. I notice it when I judge people. I notice how it’s preventing me from connecting with them and helping them. I notice it when I am able to connect and love all of the human experience I …
Showing up!
Here’s what I see. The clients that show up for themselves get results. The clients that don’t show up for themselves don’t get results. The clients that don’t show up for themselves also struggle to show up for others. This creates a cycle of overwhelm and more of not showing up for anyone. I definitely …
Drops in the ocean
My mom told me long time ago when I was a kid that “all the people in our lives are like drops from the ocean, and those drops are little mirrors that show our reflections back to us”. I can see now how that has served me in my relationships. Whenever I would have a …
I’M SO BUSY!
What if we eliminated ‘so busy’ from our vocabulary??? Whenever I tell anyone I have 4 boys, 99% of people react “wow, you must be so busy!”. Although there is definitely truth in it, I never choose to say that about my life. Why? Because I feel extremely overwhelmed when I think that and there …
Pain is not a problem.
What? I wish my coach told me that last weekend. I have been struggling with the headache for a while now. But to be honest it is a lot easier when we stop fighting the pain and stop avoiding it and resisting it. Whether it is your head or your emotional pain over your relationship …
When your kid says….
When your kids says “he told me that I am stupid and now I have the worst day ever…” What do I do? I used to hear that and I would instantly want to help, make them feel better, teach them a lesson, etc etc etc! (All so I could feel better by not hearing them complain about it). …
