We have emotions for a reason – they’re there to tell us something. Ignoring those feelings doesn’t make them go away. They will eventually surface, and if you wait too long before addressing them, you’ll likely find yourself dealing with a sudden flood of emotions. By processing them as they come up, you allow yourself to find a healthier mindset and keep that all-consuming feeling of being overwhelmed at bay.

Today, you and I are taking a one-on-one deep dive into overwhelm and the dreaded experience of forecasting—this comes up often during the holiday season, and we will stop it right now!

When you hear the word grief, does your mind immediately jump to the loss of a loved one?

Like joy, happiness, or even anger, grief is an emotion that is not limited to a single experience. Grief is a normal and natural emotional reaction to any change that finds you. Grief is about deep connection and the way you are processing.

Suppose you think about the many changes you’ve already experienced, whether from a job, a move, health, relationships, or whatever it may be.

Because of that, it's time we redefine grief, and learn to use it in a way that’s beneficial So, let’s take a one-on-one deep dive to do just that!

Many of us think we know what self-care is and why we need it, but  let’s face it: fake self-care will not solve your problems, help you find balance, and will not serve you in the long run.

So, today, you and I are taking a one-on-one deep dive into proper self-care, when and how it’s most beneficial, and I’ll hand over seven forms of self-care you may need to prioritize for your overall well-being.
