Let’s be real—how often do we actually pay attention to our breath? I mean really notice it? Most of us are out here shallow breathing our way through deadlines, dishes, and daily chaos, completely disconnected from one of the most powerful tools we have for peace and presence: our breath. But here’s the good news: mindful breathwork…
Let’s have a real moment, shall we? That feeling when you know there’s something more—but you can’t quite put your finger on it. You’ve checked all the boxes, done all the “right” things, and yet… something still feels off. Like there’s a part of you waiting to be discovered, heard, seen. That, my friend, is your dharma trying to…
Let’s be real for a second—gratitude is one of those things that everyone talks about. You see it all over Pinterest and Instagram: “Gratitude is the key to happiness.” “Grateful heart, happy mind.” “Start each day with a grateful heart.” Cute quotes, right? But here’s the deal… are we actually living it? Because I’ll tell you what—when you…
Let’s talk about that little voice in your head—the one that sometimes says, “You’re not enough,” or “You can’t do this,”or “Why even try?” Yeah, I know her. I’ve had my fair share of that voice over the years, and spoiler alert: she doesn’t get the mic anymore. Here’s the truth: our minds are powerful, but they’re also trainable. Just like…
Let me start by saying this: you do not need to be an “artist” to benefit from art therapy. Not even a little. If you can pick up a paintbrush, press your fingers into clay, or scribble with a crayon—congrats, my friend, you’re already doing it. When people come to our retreats at Retreat Ranch, they’re often…
Let’s talk about creating mindful boundaries—yep, the thing that so many of us struggle with. If you’ve ever felt guilty for saying no, overwhelmed by other people’s needs, or like you’re constantly pouring from an empty cup, you’re not alone. I used to be the queen of overcommitting. I’d say “yes” to things I didn’t want to do, let…
Hey love, let’s talk about something that most of us struggle with… letting go of control. Yeah, I know. Even reading that might make you cringe a little. I get it—I’ve been there. In fact, I wrote an entire book about it (yes, really—if you haven’t grabbed Surrender on Amazon yet, consider this your sign!). For the longest time, I thought…
Hey love, let’s talk about confidence. Not the kind that comes from looking good in a new outfit (though, yes, that helps too), but the kind that roots you in your power, your voice, and your worth—no matter what life throws at you. I used to think confidence was something people were just born with—you either had it, or…
Hey, love—let’s have a real talk about self-love. I know, I know, it’s one of those phrases that gets thrown around a lot. We hear it in self-help books, see it on Instagram, and maybe even say it to ourselves in passing. But here’s the real question—do you actually practice it? Because let me tell you, for…
Hey, love! Let’s talk about intuition—that little voice inside that’s always whispering (or sometimes screaming) what’s best for us. We all have it. That gut feeling. That deep knowing. That “something just feels off” or “this is exactly where I’m meant to be” moment. But how often do we actually listen to it? I’ll be the first to admit—I haven’t always trusted…
