you don’t need help making your decisions…

hey, turkey sando. when you choose to make decisions that honor what you want + what you love instead of defaulting to doing what other people tell you makes most sense — it’s not THAT decision that requires the most support it’s the sticking with it in the face of skepticism, doubt + disbelief from those who want to see you win as well as those who’d rather watch you lose it’s being so freaking bold as to say NO THANKS to “proven” best strategies that just don’t fit it’s being in the...

hey, sage stuffing. “damn, you’re the most spiritually savvy, firecracker delight i know” if you’ve got someone like that on your holiday gift list, consider them crossed off + sorted, bloom 🌸 i made up the cutest little holiday bundles for tomorrow’s small biz saturday market with westville arts market at lotta studio!! you can grab a limited edition candle from my collab with naturalannie essentials... PLUS 3 thriveandbloom stickers (including seasonal fave “fa la la la love your face)......

hey, rum punch. i never know if i’m going to send out an email today until the day comes + i don’t or i do driven on one side by love for a day to honor loved ones + all things for which i’m grateful, shriveled on the other by the lies, theft, and pillaging that the day was founded + perpetuated on torn between how i’ve been conditioned + what i now know to be true between doing what feels good + what feels right, honoring my own experience + honoring that of so many others sometimes i wonder...

hey, surprise cheese tray. i talk a lot about trusting yourself at least as much as everyone else, and listening to the wisdom within over the noise of what everyone else thinks or claims to know and i’m aware that it can be challenging, especially at first, to actually do that when you’re used to trusting other experts over your own internal knowledge + expertise, your own voice can actually be difficult to detect you might confuse your negative self-talk for the truth, or misidentify your...

hey, sprig of thyme. i was having (an amazing!) dinner with a couple of friends last night (at barcelona, haven’t been there is a MINUTE + it was just as incredible as ever 🤩) we were catching up on all the things, including the juggling act that is handling all the things WITHOUT sacrificing your health + overall wellbeing one of them asked what my “guardrails” are, for making sure i don’t get run down or push myself too hard for too long i said when i find myself wanting to cancel plans...

hey, lemon curd. welp, im keeping my candle… for now ;) no one ventured a guess at the name of my new program, so if you were THINKING about it, know that you prolly woulda won had you just sent it along! but in a way, it’s kinda perfect that you didn’t… because maybe you were preserving your peace maybe you had too much on your plate + something had to give maybe you didn’t get to even read yesterday’s email yet and the lesson is two-fold: you can say NO to things + be just fine… even when...

hey, jackfruit steak. shall we play a game? (we are the same if visions of a babyfaced matthew broderick now dance in your head, too — name that movie, bloom!) anyway… i’m about to drop a beautiful little 6-week container/experience that will help you finish the year strong + sustainably in your business — while preserving your personal peace + presence can you guess what i’m calling it? the name is made up of two words that both start with the prefix UN — un-this un-that for example:...

hey, baked brie. she said she just couldn’t ignore it, ya know? in our most recent one-on-one coaching session, client jen told me how she had managed to apply to three great-fit jobs that week — even though it had been about six weeks since she’d applied anywhere, and it’s not like she had suddenly STOPPED being pulled in fifty-two different directions or anything… it was quite an accomplishment, and as i virtually high-fived her for it, she said this: yeah… it was one of those things, why...

hey, hot toddy. “PUSHING THROUGH ANY INSECURITY” that was the community card for the UPRISING inner sanctum this week, and it was pulled in reverse card: from the moonology manifestation oracle card deck by yasmin boland & lori menna we let the reverseness of the card flip its guidance, so that we explored the value of NOT pushing through any insecurity instead of chastising yourself to push through it, fight through it, ignore it, slay it — what if you called your insecurity a little closer?...

hey, coffee cake. i was talking to a friend the other day about the ups + downs of the week — what i’ve come to call the “mixed bag” of how things are going i’m not a fan of empty conversation + don’t buy into the whole “when people ask you how you are, they don’t really want to HEAR how you are” social protocol, so i’ve landed upon the “it’s a mixed bag” response as a way to answer that’s true but not deep or heavy it strikes the balance of being honest + optimistic, grounded in reality...
