• Mental Health Monday – Week 37

    This week I’d like to discuss getting to the root of your triggers. We all have had traumatic experiences that leave triggers behind – some worse than others but nonetheless triggering. Last year, as I spoke to my then therapist, I learned that our triggers are our own to correct. In life we’re lucky if…


  • Mental Health Monday – Week 36

    Happy New Year everyone! I’d like to start the year off discussing reciprocation. We’ve all been in positions where we can say we felt our efforts weren’t being reciprocated – whether that be in the workplace, in regards to friends & family, or even in romantic relationships.

Now that we are adults, our lack of curiosity kind of hindered our communication styles. You may notice how irritated you get when…

    This week I’d like to discuss the importance of taking breaks. I’ll be honest… I contemplated not writing this week but I decided to turn my feelings into a moment to teach. Like many, I have a lot going on. I won’t bore you all with the details but, I will say it’s important to…


  • Mental Health Monday – Week 31

    This week I’d like to discuss expansion vs. escapism. This is a time where expansion is taking place & most of us are expanding in ways we didn’t even know we could.
