Wondering What’s Next?

Right now, you are holding a big question for your life. Maybe it’s whether or not to have another baby – and what that really means for you. Or perhaps it’s how to do what you love (or what that even is) and still have the time to tend to your sweet kiddos. Whatever it […]

Freedom is …

Freedom is knowing who you are, like the difference between your ego, which insists that you’re simply not good enough, and your brilliant and perfectly lovable self – and choosing to give voice and power to the latter.

The freedom to be who we are

There is nothing like motherhood to challenge the ego (you know, the part of us attached to what others think). I want my daughter to speak up, take risks, and express who she is without apology. And yet, when she dances around the grocery store aisles, twirling and singing, I feel the tug of my […]
