I've had to redefine integrity and accountability for myself over the past several years. Now I feel grounded, secure, and confident showing up to these calls to action rather than the immense pressure, guilt, or shame that used to come up around them.
What do integrity and accountability mean to you?
Accountability is a rare trait, but it’s what builds trust and respect. We live in a world where saying “I don’t owe anyone anything” has become normal, but the truth is, we do.
We owe apologies to the people we hurt, gratitude to the people who helped us, and respect to everyone. Taking responsibility isn’t weaknes,
it’s integrity.

We experience so much more grief in day-to-day life than we talk about... or even recognize.
Where in your life are things not turning out as you had expected? Do you find yourself denying reality in those areas? Bargaining for a different reality? Expressing deep anger in expected - or unexpected - ways? Experiencing burnout and depression from seeing the truth of your reality? Yep... that's grief ❤️🩹
Finding ourselves in a reality that is different that we'd envisioned can result in a feeling of stuckness in one extreme or a cycle of chaotic action and burnout in another. Recognizing this as a nervous system 'fight/flight/freeze/fawn' response to your body avoiding the need to actively enter the grieving process yet again is a beautifully effective first step in processing that grief.
Interactive guided meditations can help uncover what may be holding the process back and assist you in creating a vision for the new reality you'll be stepping into next. Comment below with questions or send me a message about scheduling a session 💌

Do you know how it feels to truly ‘be still’?
When you begin to tap into this superpower for yourself, the magic truly begins to flow in your life and work.

Maybe now
Maybe
I Am Complete
I just have to uncover
All the bits and pieces of me
That I:
- hid, because I thought they were ugly
- abandoned, because they hurt so much
- dressed up, so you would like them
- camouflaged, so you would overlook them
- forgot, because they seemed insignificant
- never touched, because I was afraid
- overlooked, because they were always there
The list goes on.
Maybe, it is time...
To uncover all of them
Because I am
Complete.🐛🦋🧿
