I don’t know what got into me, but I’ve been a writing machine—this is my third blog post in a week. (Don’t get used to it. Or maybe do 😉).

The newest one is tender. It starts with me moving my desk and ends with me moving through grief in the only way I knew how.

Sip + Sound — Episode 7

This morning’s sip came in a Florence + the Machine mug, a borrowed book I need to return (The Pivot Year by Brianna Wiest), and a soft reflection on how some days I still wonder… “Is it me, or should I be medicated?”

Real talk. Real heart. And of course, a little sound healing to hold it all.

Also… did I mention very special in-person Soul & Sound events are coming to Sooke the weekend of September 5 - 7th? At a brand new yoga studio? (Wink, wink. You’ll want to stay close for that one. 😉)

This week’s session is here to meet you where you are — whether you’re overflowing or feeling a little undone. Under 15 minutes. Just you, me, and the bowls.

🫖 What’s in your cup today?
💛 What’s one thing you’re grateful for?

This morning, before I even opened my laptop,
I got to call a girlfriend I hadn’t talked to in what felt like forever.

We chatted nonstop for over an hour and honestly, we probably could’ve gone on for three more. (lol we have a lot to say).
The conversation flowed.
The laughter came easy.
And I realized something…

I was smiling before I even dialed.

This was the reminder I needed today:
Connection shifts energy.

Just talking to someone you love—someone who sees you—can change your entire mood. And that’s a freakin’ amazing thing.

It softened my shoulders.
It anchored me back into my body.
It reminded me of what actually matters.
And it set the tone not just for my morning, but for my whole week.

If you’re reading this and feeling a little off, or a little tender, maybe this is your sign to reach out.
Text a friend.
Voice memo your soul sista.
Message someone you’ve been meaning to check in on.

It doesn’t have to be deep.
It just has to be real.

Tell me…
What’s one thing you’re doing to start your week with intention, love, or connection?🧡

When was the last time you danced with your partner?

This week, Stu + I turned up Hold On Tight by Aloe Blacc—and wow. It was sweaty, goofy, playful, and overflowing with joy. And it was also tender—so many tears with all the meaning this song holds for us. ❤️

We choose a new song each week, but I’d love your help—

Some mornings I wake up and my brain is already halfway down the damn track without me. Loud, messy, relentless.

For years, mornings like this wrecked me. I’d crawl back under the covers, shut out the world, and give up on the day before it even started.

Now? I meet them differently. Not because I’ve got it figured out (hell no), but because the old way was breaking me.

In my latest blog, I share the 4 things I actually do when I wake up with a racing mind plus the do’s and don’ts that keep me from spiraling.

If messy mornings are your reality too, you’ll probably see yourself in this one.

Sorry, We Don’t Do Sundays

We started this a long time ago—one day a week that belongs only to us.

On Sundays, here’s what it looks like:

The Do’s
✅ Read
✅ Rest
✅ Play games
✅ Do puzzles
✅ Write
✅ Simply be

The Don’ts
❌ Cook
❌ Clean
❌ Run errands
❌ Answer the phone
❌ Work

Call it lazy if you want. We call it SACRED.

It may look like nothing is happening, but this is such important work—the kind that keeps us whole, the kind that shaped Blissful Being itself.

So tell me—if you shut the world out for a day, what would land on your list?

Dear me,

You don’t need to prove your worth by how much you carry.

You can set it down. Even if no one sees. Even if the world keeps moving.
You’re allowed to rest.

If I could slip this note into the pocket of my past self, I would.

What would yours say?

Sip + Sound — Episode 5

What’s in your cup this morning — coffee, tea, or something else? ☕️💛

Every week, I pour a cup, strike the bowls, and extend an invitation — a gentle, under-15-min pause in your day. A space to sip, breathe, and soften… no matter what else is swirling around you.

This week, there’s birthday joy for Stu and sweet company visiting. A dragonfly kept me company for the entire session — a quiet reminder of transformation and presence. 🐉

And in the middle of all that light, I’m still carrying pieces of grief and sadness. Both exist here — the ache and the beauty, the heaviness and the joy.

Life feels full… which makes this pause even more precious.

So here’s your invitation:
☕️ Pour what’s in your cup.
💛 Press play.
🌿 And let yourself land here with me.

And if you feel called to share — where will you take your next pause?

This is the final post in The Quiet Truths of Healing—a series I’ve poured my heart into, one real moment at a time.

And if there’s one truth that’s stayed with me through every twist and turn…

It’s this:

You can hold grief and gratitude.
You can feel lost and still trust yourself.
You can carry the weight of what was and still lean into what’s possible.

You can be healing… and whole.

I used to think healing meant getting back to who I was BEFORE the hard things.
Now, I know better.

Healing has changed me.
And I’m not trying to go back.
I’m becoming someone new.
Someone softer.
Someone truer.
Someone who lets all of it—every messy, beautiful, tender piece—be true.

If you’ve been walking this path too… if you’ve felt the quiet shifts, the slow becoming, the stretch of learning to live again...
I see you.

This series may be ending, but your healing isn’t.
It’s evolving.
Just like you.

And if you’re feeling the nudge for deeper support in this next season, I’d love to welcome you into The Inner Peace Club—my gentle monthly space for staying grounded, connected, and supported as you keep growing.

Because you don’t have to do it all alone.

💛 Thank you for being here, for witnessing these truths, and for walking this path beside me.
