PSA to all the beautiful souls reaching out about future wellness hikes, retreats and 1:1 coaching!
Im taking some time for myself to reassess my direction with this business.

I’ve learned so much the last 2 years as a solo business owner. Those who know me personally know how much I have dedicated to get .wellness off the ground from years of study, practice, and implementation which has lead me to serving and meeting an amazing array of people, businesses, and communities.

I chose this path to help others more easily find what took me so long to develop for myself. I have been so eager to serve and deliver a high quality experience that it took some time for me to notice that I’ve been taking away from my own personal health and wellbeing which I have worked so hard to build. I cannot pour from an empty cup and my clients deserve the best I have to offer. Right now I cannot offer my best, so at this time I will be taking until the end of 2025 for myself and private hikes with close friends to allow myself the space to assess how to move forward.

Taking this on in addition to my career in STEM has been forcing me to make some tough decisions about my future and I need time to think it through! Thank you for understanding and thank you to all the people who have supported me thus far. 💖

Our wellness hike this month was a little different! We embraced the challenge of silient hiking while in a group. We each got something different out of it and it was a fun mindful movement experiment! Would you go on a silent hike with a group???

Stay tuned for more outdoor events coming this spring. 🌷

🥂Ｈａｐｐｙ ２０２４🥂

With this collective renewed sense of a fresh start, it’s a time that many of us feel compelled to do some reflecting on ourselves and what we want vs. what we have right now.

At times, it’s difficult to understand how to bring those ideas into fruition, and the path is often unclear or not specific to our unique circumstances… this might help.

𝗧𝗿𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝘅𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝗴𝗼𝗮𝗹𝘀!

1️⃣ State your intentions or goals as “I” statements. Example: I am, I feel, I have…

2️⃣ Start shortlisting actions you would have to take to make that “I” statement true.
- Remember action means something that you must physically do, this is an important thing to note and can be more difficult to nail down when your intention or goal is something more rooted in feeling or mindset.

3️⃣ Pick ONE of those actions for each goal, and brainstorm ways you can remove barriers, or make it easier for yourself to complete that action. Preferably this action is one you feel is the most reasonable that you could start working towards right now.

𝘞𝘰𝘳𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘢 𝘸𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘮𝘺𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘤𝘬, 𝘶𝘯𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘦, 𝘰𝘳 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘮𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘰𝘢𝘥 𝘢𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘥!

I invite you to share your “I” statement in the comments to practice making your goals and intentions known and open to deeper conversations!

I’ll share what working through this exercise for one of my intentions looks like as an example in the comments!

Wishing you all the best the new year has to offer!
