Why Your State of Mind Comes First
So many people feel stuck not because they don’t know what to do, but because of the state of mind they’re in when they try to do it.“I can’t lose weight.”“I’m not good enough for that job.”“I’m bad at relationships.” These aren’t facts – they’re stories we repeat until they feel true. I recently listened…

What’s the chance…
Many of us hesitate to ask for help.We worry about bothering others, hearing no, or feeling like we’re asking for too much. So we stay silent, struggle through, or phrase our requests in a way that feels heavy or apologetic. But there’s a surprisingly simple shift that can change everything. Instead of asking from a…

Fatigue explained
When we feel tired, we usually blame the obvious things: poor sleep, bad nutrition, not enough movement. And yes — those matter. But sometimes, even when we “do everything right,” the exhaustion stays. That’s because fatigue isn’t only physical. Very often, it’s invisible. One of the biggest hidden drains is mental fatigue. The average person…

Amazing reminder to be grateful
Today I saw this beautiful short on YouTube and I had to share it right away – such a powerful message to see in moments when we forget to treasure what we have, when we feel entitled for more, when we forget that we have today what we dreamed of yesterday. Take 22 seconds to…

Forgive Yourself, So You Can Move Forward
I recently listened to a podcast by Rob Dial about forgiveness – especially self-forgiveness – and it helped me understand something that many of us quietly struggle with: the difference between guilt and shame. Guilt is healthy and a very helpful human feeling that tells us, “I didn’t act in line with my values.”It nudges…

Close the Day Before You Go to Sleep
Many of us go to bed physically tired, but mentally wide awake.Our body is ready to rest, yet our mind keeps replaying unfinished tasks, reminders, and silent to-do lists. We fall asleep carrying the weight of the day – and often wake up already feeling behind. I recently heard Lewis Howes speak about the importance…

A Better Question to Ask
We often ask ourselves a heavy question when it comes to relationships:Will this person make me happy? I recently listened to a conversation between Matt Hussey and Oliver Burkeman, and the answer to that question surprised me — in the best way.
