Hey there, lovely souls! Let's have a heart-to-heart about something we often shy away from: detachment. Yes, you heard me right! Detachment isn't about being cold or indifferent; it's about embracing a warm, fuzzy blanket of self-love and self-care. Picture this: You're at a cozy cafe, sipping your favorite latte, and your friend pours out their heart about their latest relationship drama. You listen intently, holding space for their emotions, offering comfort like a pro. But here's the kicker: you're not entangled in their web of woes. Nope, you're gracefully detached. Detachment isn't about selfishness; it's about self-preservation. It's about understanding that we can only pour from a full cup. So, how do I do it? How do I dance through life, meeting my emotional and physical needs while holding space for others? Firstly, I listen. I mean, really listen. When someone shares their needs, desires, or dilemmas with me, I lend them my ears, my he...

Ladies let's talk about a beautiful and often overlooked gift we all have—leading in silence.  It's a form of grace that comes naturally to us as women, yet we often feel the need to raise our voices to be seen and heard. But what if I told you that there is immense power in moving silently, in leading without words? In this season, God is teaching me something profound: the strength of silent leadership.  So, what does leading in silence mean? For me, right now, it means navigating a major life change with my family. My husband received a fantastic promotion, which is a huge blessing. However, this promotion requires us to move from our beloved rural home to a bustling urban area within a mile of Manhattan. Talk about a change! I love our current home, surrounded by nature, beaches, and the quiet serenity of the countryside. My dream has always been to live in a secluded house by a lake, far from the noise and lights of the city. Yet, here we are, preparing to move to a place...

The Power of Forgiveness in Relationships: How Letting Go Can Take Your Love to the Next Level Okay, real talk: relationships are hard. I’m not just talking about the big, dramatic fights, either. It’s the small things—like your partner forgetting to grab your favorite snack (again) or leaving the toilet seat up after you’ve asked a thousand times. These little annoyances can stack up faster than the laundry you both avoid folding. But here’s the secret sauce that keeps everything from falling apart:  forgiveness . Yup, I said it. The F-word. Not the one you scream into a pillow when you’re mad, but the one that actually makes your relationship stronger, more connected, and—dare I say—happier. Forgiveness isn’t about being a doormat, either. It’s about creating space for both of you to be human (which, spoiler alert, includes messing up sometimes). So, let’s break down three types of forgiveness that can transform your relationship from “meh” to magical. 1.  Everyday Forgivene...

Why Securing Passive Income is Essential for People with ADHD If you have ADHD, you already know the world isn’t built for brains like ours. Between juggling new ideas, hyperfocus sprints, and then hitting that wall where your interest fizzles out entirely, keeping a traditional full-time job feels like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. For me, it was a constant cycle of starting a new job, being all-in, loving the rush of something new, and then… "bam", the honeymoon phase would end. I’d find myself mentally checked out, and then it’s like pulling teeth to stay engaged. Eventually, I’d leave and the cycle would repeat. This made it nearly impossible for me to stay in one place, let alone thrive in the structure of a 40-hour workweek. I was burning out fast because self-care, like getting enough sleep or taking mental health days, just didn’t fit in with that lifestyle. And when I tried starting my own business, I was met with another beast: consistency. Being the...
