This is what we all need to be talking about… Leaving intimate partner abuse isn’t a simple decision.

Every get sick of not having the life you thought you’d have or wish you had? It can be so exhausting living so far away from where you think you should be “by now”. Here’s my advice…

Suicide is scary for everyone. We can support our loved ones with authenticity when we live in truth.

Guess what?! Your sexual experience doesn’t make you more or less valuable. Period.

This is for all the weary hearts who find it difficult to admit they are a victim of abuse.

When you finally decide to take off the masks and live as your authentic self

Perspective was the difference between living and dying in my grief.

Healthy relational patterns, sustainable diet and exercise routines, profitable careers, and positive self-images do NOT build themselves. The most valuable things in life–our biggest dreams and heart cravings–take intentional action.

Words are just words unless YOU give them meaning.

My kids’ dad died when they were 6 and 4. Since then, I created email accounts for each of them and send them emails about new milestones, special moments, and thoughts I have about them.

If the pain you experience robs you of joy, it will be the practice of gratitude that returns it. When connection is severed. Heartache, palpable. Grief, asphyxiating. Fear, consuming. Regret, crippling.

“What do you eat everyday?”

People ask me this all the time. And the short answer, “I eat out of the fridge.”

Ever think, “Kids these days are such… brats, left to their own devices, disrespectful, lacking character, etc.”? Probably.

“I’m my own worst enemy.” We’ve all heard it, maybe we’ve even said it… and meant it.

When was the last time you had an honest conversation?

Was it an hour ago or maybe it’s been a week? Has it been a month or even years?

Life is full of it, so it’s time to get comfortable with discomfort.

We may be incredibly social and tactful conversationalists on any given day, but somehow, when the topic turns to someone’s emotional pain, the conversation often comes to a screeching halt.

Every human experiences pain. It’s inevitable. It’s universal.
