I recently read former SEAL and current Congressman Dan Crenshaw’s book, Fortitude, which talks a lot about how to live a more balanced and controlled emotional life, especially in this age of “outrage culture.” In one chapter, I found a metaphor that really stuck with me and I wanted to share. It comes from psychologist… Continue reading

Finding Focus with Your Senses
With so much going on and so many reasons to both worry about the future and get lost thinking about the past, it is easy to lose sight of the present. I know I have a tendency of focusing on the if/when’s of the future or the “if only’s” of the past, and at times… Continue reading

My 500th Blog Post
Almost seven years ago, on a random Sunday night, I posted a rambling blog post, which to this day has only been viewed eight times.

I Love Me (Part 2)
A couple years ago I posted this blog, where I was inspired by a blogging friend to challenge both myself and some of my favorite ladies to write out things that we love about ourselves. It was uncomfortable, a little difficult, and almost felt…wrong—which is exactly why I’m back to do it again with some… Continue reading

A Minute Past Midnight
There is a clock hanging on the wall in my bathroom that never tells the right time. I have changed the batteries, I have checked to see if it is hanging straight and flush with the wall, I have changed the nail it hangs on, I have taken it off the wall and blew on… Continue reading
