Self-Care Sermon

Send us Fan Mail Today I am sharing an exciting announcement... After 100+ episodes, this sanctuary has a new name!

This isn't just a name change. It's a rebirth. A re...

Send us Fan Mail Today's episode is an intentional pause.  This held breath moment in time where we consciously remember to fully experience the exhale.  It is about the moments that ask us to come Home to ourselves.  The moments that reveal something that we may have forgotten… but never lost.  It is about releasing the expectations, the "shoulds", the obligations… and coming back...

Send us Fan Mail Today's episode is another really personal one for me. For years, I have lived with chronic pain. The kind of pain that slowly becomes part of your identity. The kind that quietly weaves itself into your daily decisions, your relationships, your work, your sleep, and eventually the way you see yourself. When something has been present for long enough, it's amazing how ea...

Send us Fan Mail There’s a difference between choosing something because it genuinely brings you joy… and choosing something because you’re afraid of what happens if you stop. And I think many of us — especially as women — have been conditioned not to question that line too closely. We are meant to shut up and look pretty.  Today’s episode is a very honest conversation about beauty, insecurity, se...

Send us Fan Mail Today's episode is one of those simple, yet profound reminders that we need to return to again and again and again.  Everyone that I am speaking to lately is experiencing some sense of heaviness… and it is in that heaviness that we need to remember that we have the power to bring more light.  I was confronted with my own questions of self-worth recently, and in this episode w...

Send us Fan Mail In this episode, we are taking a look at the role that discipline plays in our life.  While it a beautiful skill to cultivate, the scales can easily be tipped into an overly egoic territory.

Send us Fan Mail In today's quick episode, we channel the Warrior archetype, which is within each and every one of us.  We approach this archetype through the lens of the Divine Feminine.  We talk about the hero's journey… but not in the linear, strong, muscled approach that is often portrayed from an unhealed masculine perspective.

Send us Fan Mail TLC says it best in their song, "Unpretty".  Money can buy pretty... but pretty will change tomorrow... and next year... and we will forever be chasing… always behind… never enough... if that’s our objective. The time and energy and resources we spend chasing "pretty" keep us distracted from what we should actually be pursuing in this lifetime: our purpose, our...
