Me? Jealous?? Nooooooooo. Listen, every single person deals with jealousy - but, it's one of those hush-hush topics that no one likes to talk about or admit to. Whether it's jealousy over someone's relationship, career, good opportunity, house or lot in life, these thoughts are soooo common. In this episode, I unravel the familiar patterns of jealousy and expose how it's merely just an obstacle in the way of finding your true path. Sharing from my own journey, I offer tips on how to change your inner dialogue and accept the beautiful journey that is only YOURS.

When you have experienced trauma, major life changes or intense stress and anxiety, your gut takes a beating – not only mentally, but physically. Stress symptoms show up everywhere. . . This has been the case for me. . . I knew healing was needed in my mind and spirit and I poured all of my energy into them (which was good; much of my work has centered around that journey). But, I still was neglecting my body. . . But eventually the years of stress in my body began to show signs of wear. I couldn’t eat the same foods, didn’t feel well most of the time and eventually I developed IBS, acid reflux and loads of digestion issues. . . I finally decided it was time to put healing my body up on the same level as healing my mind and spirit. After loads of research, I stumbled on 3 ways to naturally heal my body (including the lovely stress bloat and digestive inflammation).

Is it gossiping to answer honestly about someone when asked?? This has been a tough one for me. 🤔 . . I used to believe that gossiping about someone meant saying bad things about them. So when someone hurt me, I would be very vague when I talked about it, because I didn't want to "gossip". But, in the end, what it boiled down to was me being incredibly dishonest - with myself and others. 🤐 . . They say the truth sets you free. And although I think it's terrible to spread stories about people, there is fine line between being tactful and locking yourself in a cage of dishonesty. But, I felt like I only had two options: either be honest about my story (and labeled a gossip) or lie for them (but be Christian royalty 👸) . . After years of quietly holding loads of reality inside, I decided that you shouldn't have to choose. I decided I can have both: I can be kind but remain a truth teller. That in all things, I can use kindness, respect AND honesty. (And in the words of Anne Lamont, if they wanted you to say better things, they should've behaved better. 😉) . . I'm curious what your thoughts on gossip are? Where do you think the line is? . . . . . #podcasts #blogger #writer #spiritualjourney #spirituality #youareenough #authentic #lovewell #loveyourself #misfitsunite #girlmom #lovewell #loveyourself #divinelove #survivor #abusesurvivor #lovewins #beyou #risestrong #evenstill #werise #progressivechristianity #relationshipgoals #faithjourney #lgbtsupporter #lgbtchristian #allarewelcome #dailyinspiration #deepthought #deepquotes #relationshipgoals Of all of my natural given qualities, this is one of my finest. I've learned how to carry hard stuff and carry it well (sometimes too well.... 🙄) . . But, just because we can, doesn't mean we should. Sometimes it can feel like we don't have a choice. Like, the hard stuff in life is just our burden to bear. But, what if it's not? What if life isn't meant to be always filled with the weight of the hard?? ✨ . . What if, life was meant to be lived to the fullest? What if you were made to let go of the dark and pick up the light? What if your story is meant to be chapter after chapter of joy?? My dear, you were made for joy. You were also made for sorrow. But, you were never made to have to choose between the two. Just because you have grieved, does not mean you can't embrace joy. Just because you are a killer at holding onto heavy weights, doesn't mean you should. 🔆 . . Today, allow light in. Embrace the balance of both. Give yourself permission to see good. To see light. Love. Joy. And find something worth celebrating. There is always something to celebrate 🍾 ❤ . . . . #writer #spiritualjourney #spirituality #youareenough #authentic #lovewell #loveyourself #misfitsunite #girlmom #lovewell #loveyourself #divinelove #survivor #abusesurvivor #lovewins #beyou #risestrong #evenstill #werise #progressivechristianity #bebravebeyou #bebrave #bravingthewilderness #lightchaser #deepthought #deepquotes Listen, I love my kids - but I also love nights out with these girls. 🍷 Never a dull moment! . . . . . #girlsnight #friendsforkeeps #writer #podcasts #blogger #spiritualjourney #spirituality #authentic #lovewell #loveyourself #misfitsunite #girlmom #lovewell #loveyourself #divinelove #friendsforlife❤️ #lovewins #beyou #risestrong #evenstill #werise My night stand these days. Yoga and meditation have been such a life saver for me this past year. Centering, grounding and releasing stress through these practices has been incredibly healing. These two oils have taken my practice to the next level. Valor on the challenging days to help my work out, and Stress Away is sooo calming during my meditation 🙏 . . I'm learning that being healthy in mind, body and spirit is so vital. By nurturing your mind and body, your spirit reaps huge rewards. So, in this vein, I created a page with 3 simple ways to start yoga. (I figured everything I've learned this past year might be good for something 🤷‍♀️) link in bio 👆 . . . . . . #podcasts #blogger #writer #spiritualjourney #spirituality #youareenough #authentic #lovewell #loveyourself #misfitsunite #girlmom #lovewell #loveyourself #divinelove #survivor #abusesurvivor #lovewins #beyou #risestrong #evenstill #werise #progressivechristianity #yogapractice #essentialoils #easyyoga #meditationspace
