how to

My two youngest kids must have told me they hate me at least a half dozen times an hour over three days. Kids hate change and here's how to cope.

What if there was a way everything old could be brand new again?

There are a lot more moments you’ll feel like you’re a disaster than there are moments you’ll feel like you’re nailing it.

It seems like everyone is an introvert these days.

My version of self-care is a little less “best life” and a little more “no life”, but it works for me.

We have all been there before. The stuck place. Your body feels heavy, your feet glued to the floor. Maybe you have a hard time getting out of bed. Maybe you feel sad about a relationship that is deteriorating or has completely dissolved. Maybe you just feel completely spent and worn out, and lack the energy to move at all. Or maybe you have this great big beautiful life you're afraid to step into and the fear has you paralyzed.

I am stronger than my struggle and I am worth the work it takes. I’ve survived every hard day of my life so far, and I will survive more. The chasm between surviving and thriving is faith.
