when the world comes crashing at your feet it’s okay to let others help pick up the pieces if we’re present to take part in your happiness when your circumstances are great we are more than capable of sharing your pain” —Rupi Kaur
Someone I love is hurting. It's not my story to tell.
But oh my, how I wish I could help heal her heart.I wish for the right words. Something to ease the pain.
All that I have, all that I know...'i love you. i'm so sorry. i'm here.
i love you.'Pain ... no shortcuts or easy outs.
But oh how I wish I could give that to her.

Unease, anxiety, tension, stress, worry – all forms of fear – are caused by too much future, and not enough presence. Guilt, regret, resentment, grievances, sadness, bitterness, and all forms of non-forgiveness are caused by too much past, and not enough presence.

Don’t believe the storyteller, the voice of knowledge in your head, especially when the voice is going against you. Listen to yourself, listen to your story, but don’t believe it because the story you are writing is mostly fiction. It isn’t real. The lies in your story can only survive if you believe them. If you don’t believe them, they won't survive your skepticism and will simply disappear.

The craziest dream is happening for me this week.
There's no way I could've planned or orchestrated how it would unfold.

This can definitely keep us stuck. (most in our head.)This week, inspo to connect to your heart's desire, your dream...write it down and consider your next step forward and toward.
Who knows what might unfold.

Oh my word, it's been such an amazing few weeks.
Ups, downs, and in-betweens.But...wow...just wow...
I'm feeling so blessed.Today's episode is inspired by Karen - one of the lovely WRITE life 10 & 1 students
After reading Karen's note, I decided to bundle up the 5-day WRITE life class into this week's podcast episode.Here's the message Karen shared.
Kim this course has been so amazing! I woke my husband up this morning after I'd been working on my 10 & 1 page and he said, "You're different. You're so.....happy! You look so beautiful." Oh, my heart! I told him I was going to save my pennies (even though we don't have them anymore lol) so I could sign up for Write Your Heart's Desire sometime in the future. When he got home from work he told me he'd figured out how we could afford it now. So....I'm signed up!! Can't wait to get started. The exercises this week have changed my whole outlook on my life. I can only imagine what WYHD will do for me. Thank you and God bless.
So beautiful ... Right!
Amazing.
Ok, so no excuses...
walk, run, drive, do your dishes...and have a listen.Then set aside a little time to put this practice into place.
What if, THIS could be that THING, that changes all the things for you?

LET'S CHECK INWhat if you could experience a significant shift in life... like Karen?
Would you?The biggest block to change is our brain. It's quite happy when we do the same things, day after day.... safe, comfortable (and boring).
Change stirs up resistance.
But that doesn't mean we can't decide to take a leap, lean in and trust that something new is waiting for us.I always love hearing from you. Feel free to share in the comments below.

Last week I shared the story of re-scripting our trip to Seattle.
This week...
Oh, my word...who knew a quick trip could bring such an amazing gift.Lately, I've been feeling a little less-than-inspired. My birthday (51) didn't seem to help my mood.
Then came Seattle... a 5 minute chance encounter...
and oh my word the lights came on.I'm officially all-in on 51!
I've decided it's the perfect age for me to be. And, I plan on leaning all-in as I move toward making my dreams come true.This week a call to re-connect to your dreams, whatever age, stage or circumstance you are in.
