Hello I have missed you! xo
I am back after a magical "supposed to be one-week turned one-month" whirlwind break.
Oh, I fought the break like hell, but the Universe swept me away in a tidal wave and (luckily) didn't give me much of a choice.
The Universe ripped me away from my London reality, took me up to the Scottish Highlands, kicked my ass, threw me down a cliff (I've got the bruises and back pain to prove it), and woke me the fuck up.
At first, it was difficult for me to pull back from EVERYTHING and EVERYONE ― but I know how lucky I am to have the opportunity to do so, so I did it and made the most out of it.
To be transparent with you, I have been dealing with a lot of anxiety + panic attacks, and am truly focusing on and prioritizing myself for the first time in the longest time. I don't regret any of my choices, but I still have a ton of massive shifts happening that I need to confront head-on.
Currently, I'm doing an eight week 1:1 self-healing mentorship with Rebecca Conran. I am doing my shadow work, facing my fears, grounding myself, aligning my chakras, learning to deal with my discomforts, finding approval in myself for myself, and accepting the fluidity of my identity. Rebecca is an Intuitive Energy Healer & Holistic Life Coach based in NYC whom I've worked with since my divorce three years ago, and I am grateful to have the time and money to invest in this opportunity to heal myself.
It's Sunday 4/28/19 as I start this 27th edition, drafting a newsletter for the first time since Thursday 4/4/19. Today has been the first time I've watched videos or read articles and felt compelled to open up and share again.
I am not making any promises about future newsletter editions ― just going to live in the moment and do what feels right for now.
As you know, my goal is to make this as inspiring, insightful, and useful for you as possible, so you can live your best life and take steps every day to turn your dreams into your reality, just like I'm doing.
Below is the latest list of links that I'm referring to so I can build my best life one intriguing article, book, video, and podcast at a time:

QUOTE I LOVE
-
“Adventure is a path. Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated, often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be black-and-white.” ― Mark Jenkins
Friendly reminder that you are good enough, you are smart enough, and you are talented enough.
You were born with exactly what you need to chase down your biggest dreams.
Now go forth and get shit done, one day at a time!
