Do you remember when you did something really hard on your own for the first time?
Choosing autonomy challenges and stretches us.
It also creates capacity for the next time we’re faced with something really hard that we decide to take on.
But what gets in the way or trying something new? Learn the three of the most common “autonomy blockers” that we experience at all stages of our lives and what we can do about them!
On the surface, trust appears simple: You either trust someone or you don’t.
But what really makes trust work in our relationships?
And more fundamentally, how do we learn to truly trust ourselves? This month, we’re examining how to build and maintain trust in our lives.
Think back to the first time you learned how much you really didn’t know about something.
Maybe it was even an area you assumed a level of confidence or even expertise in.
And then suddenly you realized your blind spot (or maybe some well-intentioned person shared it with you!) and you could no longer ignore it…
We’ve all been there. We call this place self-awareness. And it takes authenticity!
Somewhere between the endless loads of laundry, wiping of tiny noses and bottoms, and balancing #AllTheThings, we’ve have to train our brain and imagination to prioritize fun and play. It doesn’t always come naturally…even when kids are playing around us all the time!
So from one tired parent to another, here’s our best advice for staying connected to your imagination while juggling parenting, work, and life!
How often do we wait until we’re overly frustrated with something we can’t do before we reach out and ask for help?
Admitting when we aren’t capable of doing something is hard and can even be pretty scary (especially something we should be able to do). After all, we want to come across as capable, have-it-all-together people who offer help to others – not admit we need it ourselves.
This month, we’re going to be exploring the value of collaboration and how we can work together to be even better, starting with asking and inviting.

How many times have you thought or even said “I really should…” in the last 24 hours?
Known as the “s” word of busy people, the act of “shoulding” all over ourselves and others is the fastest route to blame, guilt, and even shame.
Imagine what life would be like if you embraced more self-compassion and ditched this default reaction of “shoulding” and ruminating on what didn’t happen or hasn’t occurred yet.
What if you decided to live this year differently?
Imagine how your personal life, professional career, and family would change.
As we welcome a new year, we invite you to consider how you’ve been living and what you’ve been producing. Are you proud of your life now? Or do you need to make some changes?
Join us this month as we share how to develop more resilience in yourself and your children so you can start the year off stronger and more equipped for whatever is ahead!
As we wrap up another full year, what’s NOW for you?
Take a moment a reflect on what this year has held and what you’re proud to have experienced and completed – or simply started – before forging ahead to the next thing.
While being future-focused serves a purpose, it also takes us away from being present and reflecting on our lives now. This month, join us as we practice the value of reflection.
What Brings You Joy?
You know, the living wholeheartedly, belly-laugh inducing, memory-making-for-a-lifetime kind of JOY!!
Maybe it’s…
Traveling somewhere new
Enjoying a relaxing family dinner
Drinking the perfect cup of coffee or tea
Or just finally sleeping in…
Whatever fills you with joy, we invite you to join us on a 30-day joy-seeking adventure this month to discover more ways to embrace joyful living as we start the summer!
There is so much in our world that is novel, strange, and stimulating.
Yet, our day-to-day lives often resemble more of a mundane routine than an epic adventure. We get stuck checking off our task lists of obligations, instead of creating moments of awe, wonder, and excitement.
Expressing curiosity for the world around you is one of the best ways to enhance your overall well-being.
This month we’re going to show you how to shift your focus as we share three simple strategies to spark your curiosity!
