🎨 Digital coloring has become one of my go-to practices lately.⁠
⁠
✨ It's not profound. It's not productive. It doesn't make me better at anything + that's exactly why it works.⁠
⁠
💫 My brain gets to focus on something simple while watching something take shape. No pressure to create something meaningful that others will see. ⁠
⁠
🎃 These autumn scenes have been my jam lately. Pumpkins, ghosts, cozy fireplaces, + yes, a girl with her squirrel friend, obviously. Coloring fall vibes brings the nostalgia + just lets me indulge in a season I adore. ⁠
⁠
🌈 Sometimes the best self-care is giving your brain permission to do something completely without purpose.⁠
⁠
💕 What's your unexpected calm practice? The one that's just for you. Maybe give it a little love today.⁠

📚 Book recommendation: Boldly Belong by Julie Harris⁠
⁠
💫 This is the book I wish I'd had years ago. Harris doesn't offer toxic positivity about "overcoming" disability. Instead, she provides a framework for accepting limitations as neutral facts + moving from exhausting "fitting in" to genuine belonging.⁠
⁠
✨ I appreciated how she acknowledges the invisible labor of navigating systems not built with you in mind. She addresses patterns many develop, such as perfectionism, people-pleasing, + hyper-independence, while explaining where they come from + providing steps to shift them.⁠
⁠
🌟 This book isn't just for people with disabilities. It's helpful for allies, leaders creating inclusive environments, + anyone interested in understanding systems that weren't designed with accessibility in mind.⁠

💜 "Feeling all the feels can be very exhausting. It's also self-care."⁠
⁠
🌸 Sometimes we think self-care is bubble baths + face masks. But sometimes it's letting yourself feel everything without pushing it away.⁠
⁠
✨ Processing emotions takes energy. Sitting with discomfort takes energy. Allowing yourself to be human in all your complicated feelings? That's self-care too.⁠
⁠
💫 You don't have to make the feelings productive or turn them into lessons right away. Sometimes the self-care is just... feeling them.⁠

🥇 Practicing what I preach: my wins list from this week.⁠
⁠
🌿 I just spent three weeks writing about navigating life transitions + sustaining the journey. One of the anchors I shared? Celebrate tiny wins.⁠
⁠
✨ So here's mine:⁠
⁠
Started exploring insurance options for next year⁠
Took occasional pauses to listen to the birds⁠
Said no to an event that felt like too much⁠
Crossed off top three business-related tasks⁠
Hugged my partner every day⁠
Started a new Stephen King book⁠
⁠
🎉 Some of these look small, but also took everything I had. All of them are worthy of celebration.⁠
⁠
💪 Writing about my personal toolkit is one thing. But I also want to be transparent about what it looks like in my actual life.⁠
⁠
💕 What win are you celebrating this week, big or small? Comment below + let me celebrate with you!!⁠
⁠

💪 I dedicated yesterday to crossing off all the little sh*t.⁠
⁠
🙄 You know what I'm talking about. The birthday card sitting on your desk. The water bottles that could use a deep clean. The email triage or files that just need put in a damn folder. All of it.⁠
⁠
✨️ Sometimes I sprinkle it over the course of a week, but yesterday just felt like the perfect time to DTDT. ⁠
⁠
🧨 How do you tackle yours? One dedicated day or small bits throughout the week? Gimme your secrets 😉⁠

💫 Change can be both exciting + terrifying. Growth can be both necessary + painful. We can be both falling apart + coming together simultaneously.⁠
⁠
🌟 Part 3 of my Life Transitions toolkit just dropped: Sustaining the Journey⁠
⁠
🔧 The first two parts gave you the foundation + the actions. This final part? It's about what sustains you when you're in it for the long haul.⁠
⁠
✨ Three anchors that help me: celebrate tiny wins, trust the timeline you can't see, know when to ask for help⁠
⁠
💕 Some days I use these tools well. Other days I forget them completely. Most days I'm somewhere in between. + that's a perfectly imperfect way to be.⁠

🌱 Three questions I'm sitting with as I navigate my own transitions.⁠
⁠
🌟 Swipe through + see which one speaks to you most right now.⁠
⁠
✨ No need to answer perfectly. No need to have it all figured out. Just sit with what comes up.⁠
⁠
📣 On Wednesday, Part 3 of my Life Transitions series drops: Sustaining the Journey - about what anchors us when we can't see the finish line.⁠

🏈 Creating space isn't always about heavy emotional work. Sometimes it's about making room for the things that bring pure joy.⁠
⁠
💚 Every fall, I allow space in my calendar for Packer games. Not because it's productive in the traditional sense. Not because it serves my business to keeps my home tidy. Because it makes me happy + reminds me that life balance includes space for things that matter to me.⁠
⁠
✨ Creating space can look like:⁠
⁠
Therapy appointments⁠
Saying no⁠
Long walks to process⁠
AND Sunday football with snacks⁠
⁠
🧀 Permission granted to create space for joy too.⁠
⁠
💕 What brings you joy that you need to protect time for? Who are you cheering for this weekend? Drop it in the comments - let's celebrate the fun stuff!⁠

⚡ I'm just gonna say it: big life changes are invisible energy vampires.⁠
⁠
💭 They drain your capacity without you noticing. + it's sneaky how some transitions, like job transitions, grief, or chronic conditions, don't even fill your calendar. You might have more time than before, but somehow less capacity.⁠
⁠
✨ An empty calendar doesn't mean you have energy to fill it.⁠
⁠
📝 Part 2 of my Life Transitions toolkit just dropped: Creating Space.⁠
⁠
🔧 Last week was about the internal work—the mindset foundation. This week is about what you actually DO with your body, time, + energy when everything feels chaotic.⁠
⁠
💫 Three actions that help me:⁠
⁠
Externalize what's inside (yes, sometimes that means literally breaking something)⁠
Create actual space (not just recognize you need it—DO it)⁠
Protect your energy ruthlessly (permission to be "selfish" granted)⁠
⁠
🌱 Sometimes I process by journaling. Sometimes I need to move weight. Sometimes I need to anxiety text a friend. Sometimes I need to scream into the void.⁠
⁠
💕 The method matters less than the release.⁠

🍂 Today began in a very Lemony Snicket kinda way - a series of unfortunate events. None catastrophic, but most happened before I’d even had my coffee.

🚶‍♀️ I’ve been trying to lean into what my body needs more than what I tell myself I should do. So I canceled the strength training session I’d planned + walked to the library to return a book instead of driving later this week.

🍁 And in the process, the fall leaves lining the streets just hit me straight in the face. They’ve been around for awhile, slowly starting to change, but today all those fiery maple leaves appeared at the exact moment I needed them. Bad Bunny was the perfect soundtrack for this tiny adventure.

✨ This moment ended up being what I needed to shift perspective. Creating space + adjusting for this moment served as a reset - I’ve been able to come back + get a little productivity done in a way that feels right.

💫 Sometimes creating space looks like changing your plans mid-morning because your body is asking for something different. Tomorrow I’m sharing more about creating space during life transitions, but today I’m sharing these beautiful leaves set to Bad Bunny - to relive this moment later when I need it + hopefully to inspire you too.

🌟 When’s the last time you adjusted your plans to give your body what it needed instead of what you thought you should do? Sound up for the full effect!
