The moment I stopped looking at it as a problem I needed to fix and got curious about what else was possible, I started seeing solutions that had been there all along…

There is so much that’s beautiful about resilience. But every strength, even resilience, has a shadow if it becomes our only mode…

This week my sense of home was disrupted. While "home" can represent a lot of things- from our country to our neighborhood or even our own body- in this case it was my apartment…

This past Sunday I completed my first 5K!! As someone who has dealt with SI joint issues and chronic pain for more than 15 years, the fact that I even felt confident enough to sign up, show up, and run as much as I did felt like a HUGE success…

A few weeks ago, I remember saying to a friend that life kept feeling harder than I expected it to. Nothing was terrible. It just felt like reality kept falling slightly short of what I expected. And then this past week was the complete opposite…

In past summers, I’ve welcomed spaciousness almost as a balm that I needed. But this year feels a little different. I'm feeling a bit of a push-pull between the part of me that wants the fluidity and freedom and the part of me that wants structure and stability…

Recently I achieved a goal I’d been working towards for a few years. I was invited to be the keynote speaker on stress management at a…

I had one of those days recently where I woke up feeling off. A little irritable. A little frustrated. Even a little angry. Have you ever had that experience?

Most of us were taught that stress is inherently "bad". Something to avoid or manage. A common thing I hear from clients is: “Once I get through this project, I’ll feel less stressed.” But the truth is…

It was Sunday evening and I lost my keys, most likely in the park. But here's the kicker, the only spare set that existed... was inside my apartment. My brain immediately jumped to what that could mean—a locksmith, drilling the lock, and an unexpected expense…

We’ve been conditioned to keep going. To believe that if we stop, we fall behind. So choosing to stop, before you’re completely depleted, can feel....uncomfortable. Even when it’s exactly what you need….

The other day I noticed it felt like I was "running" from one thing to the next, while working from home. With so much more light at this time of year, trying to "do" from sunrise to sunset can be a recipe for burnout if I’m not intentional about…

This week I’ve been experiencing one of those times where you just feel a kind of heaviness in your body. And noticing how quickly the brain wants to assume it’s physical. But if you pause for a moment, you might notice…

You might be feeling the natural urge to “detox” right now…
and wondering how to do that in a way that actually feels safe and supportive for your body. But most detoxes you come across look like…

Winter slows everything down: our bodies, our routines, our thoughts, even our emotions. When things move slower, they feel heavier. And when things begin to thaw, the contrast becomes more noticeable and starts to feel like stagnation…

Aligned by Design a way of designing your life and work that honors your intuition AND the actual physiology of your body—your nervous system, your energy rhythms, your natural cycles. Not as something to fix or hack, but as a guide to lead you…

Lately, I’ve been noticing how much mental energy I spend problem-solving. From everyday questions like, "What am I going to eat today?" to bigger ones like…

Right now, I feel more reflective than driven. More quiet than ambitious. There’s a part of me that wants to do all the things, and another part that’s still tired. From a feminine energy perspective, this actually makes a lot of sense…

During hectic weeks, I lean heavily on "self-care snacks". Tiny, intentional moments of nourishment for my body and mind that take anywhere from 1 to 10 minutes…
