Raise your hand if you’ve ever said, “I’m fine,” while silently thinking, “I’m falling apart.” Yep. Been there. In fact, I built my entire retreat business because I’ve been there. For many of us women—especially in midlife—we’re juggling careers, relationships, hormones, laundry mountains, and let’s be honest, the occasional existential crisis… all while trying to keep a…

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…
