When We’re Unhappy

When we have it all (our version of the physical “all”) and are unhappy but can’t put a finger on it, taking a look at, and, most importantly, taking a chance on taking this is supportive: the first step in using time you’d normally take to think about that confusing dissatisfaction to help others.

One other or a group of others. Whatever feels right or is the lowest hanging fruit…

The point is not to do it once or thrice or every once in a while, but with frequency, until you potentially feel those feelings of dissatisfaction with life dissipate.

Maybe it’s helping that one person or that group of people with something you’ve conquered or maybe it’s not anything you’ve been through ever, but have a soft spot (a soft heart) for…

I Did THIS for the 1st Time in Years!

For the first time in years, I decided my last trip (to The Netherlands, our old hometown) would be a non-working one.

Normally and especially on overseas holidays, I try to do meetups or workshops or see clients / clients-turned-friends during a day or two, and on this trip, none of that was planned.

I enjoy my work supporting women to their authentic brands and higher callings so much (it’s felt like a natural extension of life ~ hasn’t felt separate) and, that said, some has changed — not the enjoyment of the work part, but other ways around the expression of it).

All that said, I was still checking in every couple days and on one of the days, my husband and I received an email from the CEO of the prison reform & rehabilitation project we’re working on with amazing news!

We sent him an audio message back and I can’t tell you how equally GREAT it felt to hit send before getting on bikes with Nolan.

Your dream/a dream impacts the dreams of many others, KEEP GOING ~ while not forgetting to take care of the one who keeps it — all — going…

In other news, what’s your next move? Both in self-care and in the name and care of others?

For Those Inside Tough Times (The Second Life!)

For those inside tough times, pain and joy coexist.

It may not feel like that right now, but they can and do.

Though pain is ground for great growth (break that ground…live inside it as long as it is there, don’t stuff it down), we also grow inside permission to feel the expansion of great happiness, too.

Healing requires us to feel and fumble through pain, but it also requires us to finally allow in the essential joy piece (our other truth), even when we don’t think we are up for it.

Find the people and projects that make you genuinely happy and at peace, especially when your other half is not feeling her best.

It’s through both the pain and the opposite of it that we deeply take care of ourselves and grow a second skin, giving ourselves a second chance or a second life —

Joy is awaiting to be awakened by you as you’re able (and you were born able!).

Make happiness your business by creating your authentic brand…enjoy your business, enjoy your life!
