34: Making Hard Decisions and Planning Ahead
My family is going through a hard season as my father nears the end of his journey with Alzheimer's. So this week, I'm reflecting on the hard decisions that I would have preferred to put off at the time, but thankfully my family planned ahead and made the hard decisions early. Are there hard decisions you may be avoiding that you could make now to prepare for the future?

33: Are You Disqualifying Yourself? You are ALR...
This time of year really makes us think about all the reasons we aren't enough. We disqualify ourselves because we haven't learned enough, accomplished enough, look a certain way, or any other number of things that are all criticisms inside our heads. In this episode, I'm getting vulnerable with you and sharing some of the ways I disqualify myself: especially when it comes to my body. But when we disqualify ourselves, we miss out on the most beautiful experiences in life. So let me ask you: if you weren't disqualified, what amazing things would you do?

31: Making Space for New Things
I don't know about you, but I've been spring cleaning around here recently. And it got me thinking: what are we holding on to that is preventing us from making space for new things? Choosing what to keep and what to purge can bring on all kinds of different emotions and assumptions about ourselves and our lives, but once it's done, we are ready to welcome all the beautiful and wonderful new things to come.

30: Is It Your Body or Is It the Bra?
We all have those days (or even seasons) when we feel like we just don't fit in. Sometimes that's social, and sometimes we physically don't feel like we fit. Trying on bras can be a big challenge, because there are so many styles and sizes and it can be overwhelming. When it's hard to find a bra that fits, we can feel like we're the problem. But I promise, you are not the problem. Your body is not a problem. It's just the bra.
