Today has been one of those days. It’s been a day when I’ve been called to challenge myself in uncomfortable but meaningful ways.

Showing Up for You
The thing about being a woman, and specifically a woman in the middle of a pandemic, is that the motivation to take care of ones self is particularly draining.

It was a gorgeous evening …still sunny, a cool breeze to take the heat off after a scorcher of a day, and smiles on everyone faces.
