Awakening to Your Inner Knowing
For a long time, I ignored my intuition completely. Growing up in the circumstances I did, and probably as an undiagnosed neurodivergent kid, I learned to distrust my own mind. I told myself over and over that whatever I was thinking was wrong, and everyone else knew better. I ignored my thoughts, my gut feelings,…

Unraveling Miscommunications: The Weight of Expectations
Do you ever have a moment where something small annoys the ever-living crap out of you? And do you ever wonder why it annoys you so much? Literally, same.

How to Overcome the Fear of Asking for What You Want
I think about how I was raised a lot, quiet, reserved, and taught to keep my desires to myself. As a child, I never asked for anything, emotionally or physically. It wasn’t even on my radar as an option. I saw my sister constantly in trouble for speaking up or questioning things, and I internalized…

Starting Your Mindfulness Journey in Simple Steps
Winter has officially settled in where I live, and with the snow piling up outside and the colder days keeping us indoors, I’ve found myself spending more time at home than ever. I’m sure you can relate, winter has a way of slowing everything down and giving us space to think. It’s easy to get…

Healing from Trauma: Asking the Hard Questions
*Trigger warning: mentions of general abuse* Trauma is something many of us carry with us, often without realizing it.
