So glad you had the courage to open this email Reader, What a video on Will Smith's skydiving experience taught me about fear. I distincly remember it. He said, “God placed the best things in life on the other side of fear.” That line stopped me in my tracks. Because I’ve seen it. In myself and in the teen girls I work with.
Every single time, there’s that same moment before, the trembling, the anticipation- and then the lightness and clarity that come after. That’s what courage really looks like.

Because when we keep things in the shadows they feel bigger, more impossible to tackle. When we shine some light on it we see it differently, giving us the chance to interact with it differently. STORYTIME. My son and his girlfriend were taking a walk in the dark and came back to tell us there was a large dead animal down once of the...
Hello to Monday Reader, how are you doing today? My post Halloween vibes got me thinking about fear this weekend. I know this feeling in my throat all too well that tightening and dryness as if my body is crying out, “Don’t take that next step.” It’s not the kind of fear that sends you running from danger. It’s quieter. More polite. The kind that hides behind thoughts like: Maybe things will change if I just let it run its course What if I make it even worse by saying something What if it's...
Hello Reader, There’s something truly calming about being around animals for a lot of people. The soft rhythm of cat's purr, the wag of a friendly dog’s tail, or the stillness of simply being together.
