hey, butterscotch pop. yesterday i planned on doing a side job, but felt called to something else instead intuitive cues came by way of a shifted weather forecast + a sense of what i felt more lit up to do instead and listen — sometimes there are absolutely things we must do at certain times. intuition-driven decisionmaking isn’t about avoiding those it’s about, when there’s room (and when you can make room), allowing yourself to stop fighting your longings + start following them confidently...

hey, salty sunflower seed. listen — plans change, life happens, clients cancel calls (friends do, too) and honestly? that used to bother the fuck outta me not because i had a problem with change (i didn’t + don’t.) it just felt so damn inconsiderate, ya know? my schedule was kind of a beast, so saying YES to this thing often meant saying NO to several others (and shifting a few more around) when someone canceled even a day or two before a meeting or event, i would often feel so put out —...

hey, cilantro salad. first of all... today is juneteenth and if, like mine, your ancestry doesn't include the experience of chattel enslavement — it's not too late to do as blair imani suggested in this IG post today: take the day ON instead of the day OFF — to take action, learn more, and think about how your privilege may come from other peoples’ suffering, in the past or present here's what else was on my mind today... winsday wednesday or thursday thrillsday — in my community for...

hey, cookie crumble. so — sometimes your biz is more than a biz it’s a calling, a yearning, a gift you can’t not give and damn, does that feel amazing. like, WOW — what a way to live a life AND… wow — can it be TOUGH. there’s so much to manage ON TOP of doing the actual work you’ve been powered to do marketing, messaging, planning, finding new clients, nurturing the ones you have, deciding how to package what you do + what to offer when… it’s a lot. and unless you came to this calling of...

hey, lemonhead. wouldn't it be nice — to get ahead of the game without the hustle... in a way that honors + celebrates your own unique brand of wisdom + magic?we’re currently T-2 weeks til Q3, which makes it the perfect time for you to book in a quarterforward session with me! just like the YEAR AHEAD spread, but the focus is lasered in over the next 3 (or 6) months — these sessions are a powerful way to take stock of where you’ve been over the past half of the year + recalibrate to where you...

hey, honey vanilla latte. what does joy feel like FOR YOU — do you know? because if you don’t know what it feels like, it can be awfully hard to recognize it, never mind to claim it like it’s your job today, i’m thoroughly steeped in joy i’m working away, at one a my fave spots — twelve percent beer project i love the vibe here. it’s spacious + bathed in clear bright light. there’s always great music playing at just the right volume. the owners + staff are SUCH GOOD PEOPLE, and they always...

hey, banana pudding. every week, my acupuncturist asks me about my stress level and every time it feels like kind of a pointless question, my answer always some version of: lots to be stressed about, feeling okay though since none of the things contributing to that stress have changed, it seems kind of silly (read, honestly: annoying) to have to answer every time last sesh though, i reported my stress level as high. not because it had been an especially tough week (it hadn’t) but because my...

hey, asparagus stalk. a couple years ago i dreamed up the idea of joygenjune — an invitation to focus on all the things that bring us joy — to honor, prioritize, and nurture what lights us up so very bright one, because it feels good + we’re ALLOWED to do it because it feel’s good two, because i want to live in a world that normalizes joy in our lives + businesses where we act from joy + love rather than fear or hate where we stop feeling guilty or unworthy + start embracing the beauty that...

be ruthless, bloom. i know, not what you might’ve come to expect from me in terms of messaging but bear with me — because your ability to see the cup half full may be holding you back or keeping you stuck not always, but maybe right now just like it’s been doing for me you see, i’m generally all about the grey areas, middle spaces, and nuances of understanding it’s also very natural for me to see upsides in down times, to recognize lessons delivered in hardship, and to genuinely find joy +...
