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…
Alright, let’s be real—I never, in a million years, thought I’d be writing a blog about running, let alone one where I’m celebrating finishing a half marathon. But here I am, 13.1 miles later, still riding the high of one of the most magical (and slightly messy) experiences of my life. This past February 2nd, I laced up…
Alright, friends, let’s get real. You know I’m all about mindful living, balance, and tuning in to what feels good in our bodies—not just jumping on the latest health trend because everyone else is doing it. But I was gearing up for my first half marathon (more on that next week), and I thought, why not take things…
Hi there, beautiful soul! Shannon here, and today we’re diving into one of the most powerful, yet simple, tools for healing and transformation—breathwork. If you’ve been to one of my retreats, you’ve probably already experienced the magic of breathwork. If not, let me just say this: it’s a game-changer. Here’s the thing—most of us go…
