Love Letter: The Holidays + Relationships (12/19/23)

I’m curious: What were the holidays like for your family? Would you be willing to tell me what you remember? Did your family have traditions during the holidays? I didn’t grow up with traditions; funnily enough, I don’t have a lot of positive memories of the holidays either. It’s important to me to create them…

Love Letter: Saying goodbye…(12/13/23)

You know the phrase “let go or be dragged?” It is very powerful, yet most people I know (myself included) have a very hard time letting go. We want to hold onto what we love, keep ourselves safe with the things familiar to us, experience the security of what is familiar too, and it’s hard…

Love Letter: A Lot Can Change in a Year (12/6/23)

Happy December! I’m sure I’m not alone when I say that this time of the year is always reflective for me. And I’ve been thinking a lot about past holiday seasons.  Just one year ago, we had just moved into our new house, lost Andrew’s Mom, and had a 5-month-old baby. Candidly, it was a…

This year, I am very present to the tenderness of the holiday season. Here’s what I mean… Last year, I was five months postpartum and grieving the sudden and tragic loss of Andrew’s Mom.

Love Letter: What matters most in love (11/22/23)

I am thinking of you as we move into the holiday season and allllllll the feelings that go along with it.  Regardless of relationship status, we can all go through difficult things and beautiful things, sometimes simultaneously. That’s the truth of life.  Thanksgiving 2021, I celebrated being pregnant with my family. Thanksgiving 2022, Andrew and…

Love Letter: Your Childhood and Your Love Life (11/8/23)

I spent so many years thinking I was “unlucky” in Love. I spent years (yes, years!) in my on-again, off-again relationship, thinking there was something wrong with me. I spent years believing there was nothing I could do about my love life, and it was all left to hope and chance.  My own healing journey…

Love Letter: 5 Things Blocking Your Heart to Love (11/1/23)

I believe relationship skills are LIFE skills.  I am constantly aware of how much parenting is about relationships and how much my marriage impacts my daughter (and everyone around me). We receive NO education about relationships, and so many women are deeply, deeply struggling in this area of their lives.  I want to live in…

Love Letter: What I’ve Learned About True Self Love (10/25/23)

For most of my life, I absolutely didn’t like myself. Childhood trauma mixed with growing up as a woman in this patriarchal society and, of course, my experience of myself was messed up.  Getting sober was my first act of self-love. I didn’t “believe” I deserved to be sober, nor did I feel good about…
