Where Are All the Good Vibes?

When you’re: feeling exhausted dragging your butt from one meeting to the next wondering how you’ll juggle the kid’s schedule and cover the endless bills

You’re in need of something that’ll give your energy & mood a boost.. but where can you find it and how will that fit into your already jam-packed calendar?

It’s closer than you think and I’m here to remind you not to give up!

If you’re like me, you put off allowing yourself even the smallest pleasure until there’s time for it (or you feel like you’ve earned it) - otherwise, the guilt that comes with it cancels any fun factor You can’t bear to face the accusations you’ll bombard yourself with

Using precious time for feel-good fun..? How selfish!

The huge gaping hole in that logic is that: there’s never time for it - unless you make the time and you won’t make the time - unless it’s a priority it’s not a priority - unless it gets your attention

So how does it get your attention?

What’s it gonna take???

What WALL, What CRISIS, What WAKE-UP CALL will it take before you make yourself and your health & happiness a priority?

Do you have to wait that long? NO!

Does it have to be as drastic and dramatic as a wall, a crisis or a wake-up call to get your attention?

I sure hope not!

Here’s my challenge to you - What’s ONE SMALL WAY you can allow yourself to add even a couple minutes of relaxation, fun, joy, laughter and feel good vibes to your day? Because there’s no magical place they’re hidingthe invitations are everywhere just waiting for you to say YES PLEASE!!

"There’s a version of you on the other side of this pain that will blow your own damn mind. Stay alive long enough to meet her."

This Is the Aftermath—and It’s Beautiful.

When I wrote From Wounds to Wisdom, I was still raw I was still leaking pain, navigating shame, and rebuilding my bones after years of breaking myself for people who wouldn’t even bend for me.

That story came from the trenches This one? This comes from the throne I built with the bricks life threw at me. This is the woman I became.

Pain Was My Portal.

I used to be scared of pain Now I understand it’s a teacher with brutal methods but divine lessons

The truth is, I didn’t just survive divorce. I didn’t just make it out of addiction, betrayal, abuse, and sexual exploitation I alchemized every ounce of it into purpose I chose to become the woman I was always meant to be.

"The old me didn’t die; she evolved. And that’s the kind of funeral worth celebrating."

The Healing Wasn’t Cute—But It Was Holy.

Healing didn’t look like yoga mats and bubble baths It looked like crying so hard I choked on my own breath

Like saying goodbye to people I once begged to stay.

Like standing in the mirror and whispering, “I forgive you,” to a version of me I used to hate

I stopped running from my past and started running toward my purpose I quit trying to numb the pain and started listening to it And in that sacred space, I found her—the woman I was always hiding beneath the survival mask.

And just when I thought the storm had passed, life sent more

I lost my mother to dementia, mourned the kind of goodbye I never truly got Business dreams that once felt rock solid crumbled right in front of me

And menopause? Let’s just say no one prepares you for the emotional rollercoaster that hits harder than puberty ever did

But through it all, I grew something unshakable: emotional intelligence.

I stopped reacting and started responding I mastered my triggers instead of letting them master me.

I realized that peace isn’t the absence of chaos it’s the presence of self-mastery in the middle of it

"Healing doesn’t make you prettier. It makes you powerful. It gives you your voice back—and trust me, mine came back with a vengeance."
