After the first 22 years of stress related extreme fatigue and inability to build muscle, I have had an 18 year consistent but varied personal health journey. I have been underweight, overweight, injured, weak, strong, learned new skills, experimented with my nutrition, etc. If there is one thing I have learned, it is that every … Continue reading Building a Relationship with My Body

This won't resonate with everyone, but this has actually been a MAJOR theme of learning for me the last few years. Struggling with extreme fatigue and weakness growing up, everything was naturally harder for me. Being told I was actually lazy and not fatigued also meant I worked harder to prove I wasn't lazy and … Continue reading Earning versus Receiving

I grew up with extreme fatigue and inability to build muscle. This was from the stress I experienced in my home. As I dove into my healing in my twenties and became more aware of how I experienced my surroundings, one of the things I learned I had to be committed to was guarding my … Continue reading Learning to be “Selfish” With My Energy

What is your experience around sex/sexuality? It is such a taboo topic. A charged topic. Governments and religions have attempted to control it in civilized nations for thousands of years.

I am slowing down, I am learning to relax, I am practicing trust that I am … Continue reading Overcoming Addiction

WHAT WOULD IT BE LIKE TO HAVE A DAD that could be proud of me? What would it be like to have a dad that saw me as an equal/potential equal, and was okay with or even eager for that? What would it be like to have a dad who was proud of me? Or … Continue reading What Would It Be Like To Have A Dad?

Someone asked me how I would encourage one who was on a journey of being single when their heart was to be married. After many years of deep bitterness, where every happy couple, every romantic movie with a happy ending, left a bitter taste in my mouth, I am softening to the a place of … Continue reading If I Never Marry

Since the first of the year I have been in a chakra cleanse class with one of my mentors, Amanda Flaker. Such a powerful experience and so much going on. I know I will need to continue to have great compassion and patience for myself as I keep allowing past wounds to speak and be … Continue reading Changing Powerful Beliefs

I think it is because Christmas is happening in a couple days and it feels so distant to me. I used to get excited for holidays, especially Christmas. … Continue reading Pondering Change
