In December of last year, I was at my upper limit with dating. I was feeling unmet, drained, and hopeless. I could tell that my seeking, swiping, and cynicism needed a rest.

It’s 2023, a new year—and I’m coming out! (Insert Diana Ross song 🎶🎤) I am coming out as an authentic version of myself. I am coming out with my greatest gifts to share. I am coming out to support you in loving yourself—even more.

2022 included mystery, loss, heart-ache, grief, and anxiety. It also encompassed deep learning, career and personal growth, extraordinary connection, and next-level Self love. Our lives are full spectrum, after all.

Hello and Happy Holidays, dear one! I hope you have been indulging in all the ease, cosiness, warmth, rest, connection, joy, and love that you deserve and desire during this sacred holy time. However, you have been celebrating—I am wishing you a nourishing season and Happy New Year, too!

As we drop in with the holy days, it is wholesome to slow down from busy-ness, to reflect on the past year, to gather with loved ones, and to appreciate all that we have. And while I am doing just that—after watching an inspiring short with Mel Robbins—I am also taking on a new end of the year ritual.

I have spent countless time, energy, and money on dying my hair. Whether it was to have a warm hue to match my skin tone or cover-up those undesirable grays—it has been a long journey of conforming my crown with societal norms. And, I am done!

As the season of holy days is upon us, it is beautiful to acknowledge all we have to be grateful for. Oftentimes, it’s natural to do so with what is and has been “good” in our life. And while I fully support and do this practice myself—I also appreciate and encourage being grateful for what has been hard.

Have you ever sat in a safe and loving circle with other women—sharing your Self authentically? Where you talk about your darkest moments, deepest fears, and greatest longings?

Happy NOvember! This month I am taking two online courses: Jewish Ancestral Healing with Taya Mâ of Kohenet and Hub Marketing with Tad Hargrave, Marketing for Hippies.

Last night my dear friend Nancy came over for a visit. As I cooked us up a delicious and healthy dinner we chatted about the aches in our bodies. Nancy having back spasm, me having knee pain.
