#17 What Can I Do Now? Share My Truth
I know I’m not meant to feel joy every moment of every day, because it’s those times when I don’t that I open myself up for crazy amounts of growth. Experiencing joy is me celebrating my growth. Growth may be painful, but it’s worth it. I always love the image of caterpillars coming a part,…

#16 What Can I Do Now? Celebrate Incremental Progress
As I’ve been writing, I’ve shared I’m not going through an easy time as of late. Somedays, I’m holding myself together by focusing on what I can do now. This weekend, I had a big shift. Just like any personal growth shift, I don’t know how long the joy rush will last or where it…

#13 What Can I Do Now? Letting Go
When I’ve exhausted what I CAN do, it’s time to let it go. Letting go isn’t giving up. Letting go is accepting what is, and working from there. Holding onto a dream or a nightmare of what’s not real is a choice. Worrying and wanting things to be different than they are takes A LOT…

We don’t always know what the day will bring. Sometimes we have more unplanned, unexpected, and unpredictable things happen than others. For me, this is one of those days. I start my day off with having to give someone a ride that wasn’t planned. When I went out to my car, I rolled down my…

Why do we often forget to take even just a few minutes daily to do something we enjoy to do? It doesn’t have to be long, so saying we don’t have time is just an excuse. If we like dancing, we can even put it on while we are doing something around the house. We…

#10 What Can I Do Now? Dealing with Anger
I know people can get uncomfortable with the people they love having challenging feelings like anger, frustration, sadness, fear, and so on. This is why I’ve found it so important to know who my emotional support people are when I’m feeling these types of feelings. For me, venting is a part of my process, and…

#9 What Can I Do Now? One New Thing
I’m in that place where I want to do something different. Some old behavior patterns aren’t serving me anymore. Something that’s a little different for me is that I don’t feel the need to make a bunch of changes to my daily life. Quite honestly just the thought of that overwhelms me. I’m looking to…

What Can I Do Now? #7 Trauma Trigger
When we have past trauma, we never know what will happen that might trigger a memory. We can be in a conversation, reading, watching or listening to something, the list goes on. Well, today was one of those days for me. I read something that brought me back to a very dark time. I’ve done…
