In this post, we’ll explore how to put yourself first—gently, without guilt, and in ways that feel true to who you are today. Both of my daughters recently became mothers. I’ve watched their lives shift almost overnight—every thought, every heartbeat now revolving around these tiny creatures who depend on them completely. It’s beautiful. And familiar….
I recently had a blog published on Tiny Buddha—a moment I felt quietly proud of. But that sense of pride quickly unraveled when I read a couple of negative comments under the post. My heart sank. A kind of panic set in. Oh no. I’ve annoyed these people. They’re mad at me. I’ve disappointed them….

A Nervous Horse, a Tense Rider, and the Unexpected Path to Inner Calm A few years ago, I bought a truly lovely horse. She was sweet, beautiful, and… very excitable. The kind of horse that could go from grazing peacefully to full pirouette in a heartbeat. The thing is, she made me nervous. And as…
Family is at the heart of who we are. It’s where we find love, support, and connection—but let’s be real, it’s also where we experience misunderstandings, stress, and the occasional “who left the empty milk carton in the fridge?!” moment.
