Don't be afraid to reach out when contemplating a divorce. Sometimes just having the answers helps you decide if you are ready to move forward or press pause.

One of my favorite parts of my job is working with teenagers. They are full of insight and a fresh perspective that always leaves me feeling like I am really learning from them.
I just wish we all spent more time letting them know how important and valued they are to us!

In my experience, it is hindsight that helps reinforce the concept of failure as a great teacher. The trick is remembering that in the moments of defeat.

It's World Mental Healthy Day.
Therapy is like taking your feelings and and emotions out for a brisk jog.
Not always fabulous while you are doing it but you sure feel healthier afterwards!

Sometimes divorce can feel like a death. And it is the end of something that was ignited with hope and promise.
When things have changed and there is no longer love and healthy support in a marriage people "hang on" for the children. The result can be children with an ill-informed view of harmony.
While I don't ever advocate people throw in the towel willy-nilly and without valiant effort I also want to support people who are ending their marriage because that is the healthier thing to do for the entire family.

Blessed everyday with my "little" family. Our party of eight. My INTENTIONAL TRIBE.
We built it out of love, of course.
It also involved patience, communication about values and putting our children first, planning, individual rapport building with each person, respect and space for everyone to find their new place, and so much laughter along the way.
Why are adults so glib to think that if we have an exciting and passionate relationship with someone the kids should just fall in line? They were there first and deserve to be our utmost focus and priority.
Blending a family isn't about logistics. It's about growing real and trusting relationships.

As always Brené Brown nails it. It is easy to get caught up in our past failures. Taking those personal regrets and using them to understand humans and their struggles is making lemonade out of lemons.

Sometimes we think that people who see life as glass-half-full must be born with that perspective in their disposition. But through practice and challenging cognitive dissonance we all can get better at believing in amazing outcomes!

There is already so much pressure to be exceedingly joyful and grateful during the holiday season. In the real world it can be a difficult time for many people. Let's be kind to ourselves and those around us by remembering that sometimes it is tough to show up with a happy face.

This is the little muffin face I get to see waiting for me at the door each night when I get home from work. 💞 Mahi entered my life only two months ago, but I can already attest to the positive impact she has had on my overall mood!
The bonds that exist between humans and animals is incredibly powerful. And the positive connection between pets and their human’s mental health is undeniable.
Animals help with depression, anxiety, and stress. In addition, they provide companionship and ease loneliness. Best of all - they provide joy and unconditional love.
Not everyone is in a position to own a pet but finding other ways to have interactions with animals in your life will undoubtedly result in a positive impact.
