It’s Okay to be Both

It’s okay if one day you step out the door like a lioness and the next day you feel like you’re still just a cub. At times you’ll be all dreams and daring, magic, manifesting, and miracles; but there may also be others when you’re weary, wary, conflicted, constricted, or confused. And that’s okay. It’s […]

Get Up

There are many things I’ve learned over the past couple of years, some big and some small – but one of the more precious little gems that I’ve picked up is that life moves on whether you’re ready to or not; and that you might as well just move on with it because, if you […]

A Kind of Healing Magic

Kindness, too, can be a kind of healing magic. Kindness too can break through barriers, dismantle weapons, tear down walls. Sometimes a sincere encouragement or altruistic favor can bring far deeper and wider spread awareness than even the most well-intentioned criticism or authentic observation. Sometimes a small act of kindness can transform the darkness that […]
