If you’re constantly saying “yes” to everyone at the expense of your own well-being, you're not being generous — you're being depleted. You cannot give what you don’t have. Set limits, or you’ll burn out before the season is over.

Yes, it's wonderful to serve others, but it's just as important to protect yourself and your well-being.
Who are you, and what is your purpose this season? It’s okay to let go of the pressure to be everywhere and do everything. Your worth isn’t tied to how much you give or how available you are.
Communicate openly, set boundaries, and focus on what truly brings you joy and peace. You deserve it.

We live in one of the most divisive and divided times in history. Culture and media invite us to push away those that have different opinions than us, or cancel others when our outlooks don’t align. Yet, one of the greatest shifts we can make in our relationships is the shift from judgment to curiosity. Judgment divides, curiosity connects.

Next time you find yourself in conversation with someone with a different perspective than you, try utilizing these phrases to foster curiosity and empathy.

Did you know that each year, more than 700,000 people die by su***de? That’s one life every 40 seconds. Every person lost is a friend, a co-worker, a son, a daughter—a human being. And every life lost is one too many. In observation of National Su***de Prevention Month, our team is sharing daily resources this week to help destigmatize the conversation, raise awareness, and provide practical ways to support the millions of individuals affected by depression and su***de.  
 
Today on the blog, we’re sharing a few tips for those who are navigating the unthinkable grief of losing a loved one to su***de. You can read the whole thing at experienceonsite.com/blog or by commenting the word BLOG. 
 
Healing from the loss of a loved one to su***de is a deeply personal journey. By honoring their memory, caring for your well-being, and finding empowering ways to process your grief, you can begin to navigate this difficult path with compassion and strength.

Does life ever feel like it's spinning out of control? 🌪️

In moments of stress, chaos, and overwhelm, it can feel like life is happening to us instead of the other way around. Despite challenging circumstances, we can always find choice. Having agency over what we can control (and extending compassion to what we cannot) helps keep us grounded.

Here are a few things you can control today and a few things you cannot—give yourself some grace today 💛
