Official Permission to Laugh (Even Now) ✨
|
Hello friend, Life has felt heavy lately. Losing both of my parents in such a short time has changed me in ways I’m still figuring out… and the noise in the world right now doesn’t exactly help. So I’m writing this email as a reminder — for you and for me. When things feel overwhelming, humor isn’t avoidance. It’s survival. I realized this week that one of my oldest coping strategies — laughing with my girlfriends — is something I haven’t made enough space for lately. Not polite laughter — the snort-your-coffee, “did-we-really-just-say-that?” kind. Since it's Galentine’s Day today, I’m reminding myself that friendship might be one of the most powerful forms of medicine we have — especially the kind that includes laughing until you cry. And yet… I also realized something else: Classic coach move, right? 🙃 So this is my public accountability moment. This week I’m: Because laughter doesn’t fix grief or stress — but it softens the edges enough to keep going. If you’re in a heavy season too, maybe this is your reminder: With you in the messy middle, P.S. Hit reply and tell me — what always makes you laugh when life feels heavy? I’m collecting a “laughter list.” |

That’s the part no one talks about enough. Not the big breakdowns.Not the bold reinventions. But that quiet space where you know something needs to change…and you keep circling it instead of moving. Here’s what I shared with her and what I want you to see too: Authority doesn’t come from a title.It comes from the evidence...
Hello Reader, This isn’t the email I had planned to write this week. But life doesn’t always follow the plan… does it? Lately, I’ve been walking through a season of both deep loss and unexpected change. Losing both of my parents in such a short time…That kind of loss shifts you in ways that are hard to put into words. It has a way of stripping things down to what really matters. At the same time, my business has been moving, growing, stretching—and yes, experiencing its own ups and downs....
Hello Reader, Let’s be honest… Easter isn’t always just soft music, pastel dresses, and perfectly arranged brunch tables. Sometimes it’s:🥚 Eating chocolate before 9am (no judgment)🥚 Wondering how there is STILL Easter grass everywhere🥚 Smiling sweetly while thinking, “I need a nap… and maybe a life reset.” Sound familiar? 😄 Here’s your gentle, real-life Easter reminder: You don’t need a full glow-up.You don’t need a 10-step plan.You don’t even need to “have it all together” by Monday.
