It’s like losing your best friend and while at the funeral, you learn your house caught fire and the dog didn’t make it out. Like WTF?! Where do you turn your attention and energy first? Then comes the guilt of focusing on one vs the other. It’s a lot.

Information overload is an understatement! We can’t get around the plethora of content via multiple disciplines. Are you intentional taking time to bring yourself back to center?

Once upon a time, I was an affirmation snob. I didn't realize it at the time but I certainly never thought I was the type of person who needed a quote for mental support! But alas, life stepped in and introduced the need for a boost!

I have to give myself permission a lot nowadays! Permission to not be OK. Permission to ask for help. Permission to pause and pray. My 'normal' self is OK working through the pain and putting that energy into something productive. Guess what? This is not normal.

You have the power as soon as you realize you have the power.
