  • “It’s time to Practice Self Advocacy”⠀ As part of October’s “Nourish and Nurture” month, I’m thrilled to be sharing the conversation with Christy Tending on self advocacy. Going above and beyond self care, self advocacy is all about being “compassionately present with yourself in any given moment and take action based on that.” ⠀ ⠀ I think you’ll love what Christy has to say about building in time and space to be present with yourself, and, how she talks about taking action based on what you need. ⠀ ⠀ If you’re reeling and need some direction around how to stop feeling like you’re at the whim of other people’s agendas, decisions, or actions, then you’ll want to tune in for this episode.⠀ ⠀ You can find the link to the episode in my profile.⠀ ⠀ Big thanks to Christy, for joining me this week! @christytending⠀ ⠀ #jumpstartyourjoy #newmom #entrepreneur #alifeofintention #beingboss #bossbabe #calledtobecreative #creativepreneur #fempreneur #creativehappylife #podcastersofinstagram #lightworker #thehappynow #seekthesimplicity #petitejoys #mompreneur #selfcare #selfadvocacy #nurtureandnourish

  • October is all about finding ways to nourish and nurture ourselves on the podcast. Christy Tending joins me to talk about about being entrepreneurs, and moms, and we spent a bit of time talking about how your experience of things changes when your role as a human changes. This sounds obvious, yes, but in my own experience, it’s easy to drift into motherhood (and have everything change), but not really stop to take stock of what the new experience is. I love that Christy has taken the time and energy to name the nuances of what she is feeling, and what she needs. ⠀ ⠀ If you’re feeling overwhelmed and like you’re not sure of where to find your footing, I hope you’ll join us. ⠀ ⠀ You can find the link to the episode in my profile.⠀ ⠀ Big thanks to Christy, for joining me this week! @christytending⠀ ⠀ #jumpstartyourjoy #newmom #entrepreneur #alifeofintention #beingboss #bossbabe #calledtobecreative #creativepreneur #fempreneur #creativehappylife #podcastersofinstagram #lightworker #thehappynow #seekthesimplicity #petitejoys #mompreneur #selfcare #selfadvocacy #nurtureandnourish
  • I’ve never been to a pumpkin patch with a labyrinth before - and yet this seemed perfectly set for what I needed today. Labyrinths are a walking meditation, unlike a maze there is only one path, and you walk it to the center and then back again. Almost every religion in the world has a kind of labyrinth in its history. This one is a 12 circuit, the design can be traced to 1234 AD in Chartres France. I’ve walked several 12 circuits before. What I noticed this time? The gorgeous smell of rosemary that surrounded the labyrinth. The children that ran through and around it, like distractions in life I was grateful for them, and, quietly across the breeze I heard the song “you were always on my mind” originally by Willy Nelson and later sung by Elvis and again the Pet shop Boys, later still Michael Buble. I was transported in time and space, walking through fields of another dimension, having set the intention to “let it go” as I entered the labyrinth. By the time I was spiraling back out I was present. Not tired. Alive. Here. Now. And the rest was gone. Little things I could have said and done. I never took the time. You were always on my mind. #labyrinth #angelnumbers #angelnumber1234 #pumpkinpatch #walkasacredpath #walkalabyrinth #saturdayvibes #youwerealwaysonmymind #meditation
  • Happy Fall from the pumpkin patch!! I managed to buy several extra vintage pieces ahead of 70s night for next weeks NKOTB Cruise and this top is a new favorite. It’s a batwing Hawaiian shirt ⛱🧜🏼‍♀️💛 and it’s begging to be worn for the sail away party. A beautiful day in NorCal. And I can’t wait for Miami!! #pumpkinpatch #norcal #fall2018 #vintageclothing #hawaiianshirt #pumpkin #saturdayvibes #flashesofdelight #brentwood #nkotbcruisex
