I’m so glad our bodies can slip into survival mode when tragedy strikes and we can barely function. What a gift that we can adapt to our situation in a sustainable way. But we were never built to live there. What does survival mode look like and feel like for you? One of mine was during a difficult season of anxiety. I remember looking at gray skies through my front living room window thinking my life would feel this forever. Stuck. Barely functioning. Angry. Scared. Life isn’t all blue skies and sunshine, but I do know living in survival mode is *not* Love’s dream for us. I’m fascinated by the moments that wake us up. That we become aware for the first time or the 89th time that we slipped into a stuck place. How do you wake up when you’ve gotten stuck? #survivalmode #palmsup #stuck #anxiety #mentalhealth #love

I spent yesterday with my 1st grade daughter and four of her friends on a field trip. My heart bubbled over as I watched these fierce, brave, gentle girls love learning and exploring the aquarium. May they always feel this free at their core. #raisinggirls #friends #brave #fierce

These days come here and there when we need them most. They invite us to show up and pay deep attention to the reality of what’s going on in front of us. It’s so easy to sleep through our lives. It feels like our hustle culture is our only option sometimes. So we put our head down and go. And we miss so many moments that would have brought us meaning, joy, growth and a sense of feeling fully alive. Is today a day to wake up and live? #palmsup #hustle #exhaustion #growth #wednesdaywisdom
