Do Regular Shit

Bit of a (tongue-in-cheek) rant here but it seems to me that wellness culture & social media in general have appropriated common sense, "validated" it, & repackaged it into something amazing! and supposedly unique (and, of course, sellable!) that takes much of the joy & ease out of these things in order to superpower your Hustle or maximize who you are in some way. Simply put, bringing intensity & over-focus to your wellness “protocols” undermines much of our efforts at relaxation, stress relief & improved health. The solution is really quite simple.

Transformation Doesn't Happen in an Instant

Not every epiphany sparks immediate, radical change. February 2021 marks 20 years, to the month, from what I lovingly refer to as my “epiphany” – the moment that jumpstarted lasting change in my life. That lasting change, however, didn’t happen overnight. Sometimes change starts less with an explosion and more with a tiny seed being planted. With time, resources, and patience, that seed holds the potential to blossom into something new and big. But you gotta work it.

Your Power (Seriously, You Have More Than You Think You Do)

Here’s a radical thought: 2020 does not suck. While many of us may feel powerless in the face of current events, we still have the power - and the responsibility - to take care of our conditions and to work to resolve the challenges or conflicts we’re in. The under use of the power we do have is also a misuse of power. Read on for more about what power is and the power we all have.
