An old one but still true. And apologies for the snow background in September 😜

Putting a pretty picture here and taking a moment to say I’ve had a really rough week on multiple fronts. Here’s to the day in, day out work of showing up and opening my palms when all I want to do is close them. When all I want to do is dig in my heals. When all I want to do is control it all. Life is hard. Community with each of you makes it a little easier. We don’t hold anything alone, right? #palmsuplife #lifeishard #showup #holditloosely

I’m working on the editing process of a chapter and my book coach, @christiannesquires asked, “Are there any sentences that make a claim that need support?” . “Would a story make it more human?” . My heart hummed with the truth of that statement. We can say lots of words in our lives and think that it matters. And it does. But it is our stories that make us most human. May we continue to be people who ask and then truly listen to each other stories. May we do the work to uncover the story that’s underneath anger and hate and indifference. Stories can save us. #storytellingpeople #palmsuplife #showuppayattention #listendeeply #getcurious #storiesmatter

When I get quiet, Love reminds me I can hold more than I thought was possible, as long as I’m holding it loosely. When life is noisy, I feel overwhelmed with all the things I’m holding because I am holding them as if they depend on me. My palms are not open. Love has a much bigger capacity in me than fear does. Love can hold a lot more than I think. My old way of being was to hold a lot *while* being afraid. But Love’s capacity stretches me in a fantastic way to realize when I open my palms, more can flow through than I used to think. I know I’m not alone in figuring out the dance between control and trust, fear and peace, stress and quiet. What’s helping you get curious instead of closing down? #palmsuplife #loveatwork #holditloosely #doless

Your Monday reminder we’re all in different places. Some of us are cocooned away, wondering and waiting for what’s coming next. We’re resting and gathering strength. Some of us are open and shining and running on all cylinders. Things are clicking and we feel good. Some of us are wilting, getting tired and ready to let go of this season so we can make room for what’s next. Here’s to cheering each other on, no matter the season. Let’s choose community over comparison. You’re right where you need to be 💛 #communityovercompetition #bloom #itsnotarace #palmsuplife #shifthustleculture #inthistogether
