This isn’t about perfection, it’s about awareness. Our values often show up in small, everyday choices rather than big moments. Take time to notice where your life feels aligned, and where it might be asking for adjustment.

This question invites honesty without judgment. Sometimes the answer isn’t “do more,” but rather rest more, slow down, or let go. Being present often starts with meeting ourselves where we are instead of where we think we should be.

As the new year begins, this is a gentle place to start. Notice what makes you laugh out loud or feel lighter in your body. Joy doesn’t have to be extravagant to be meaningful. Once you name it, you can make space for a little more of it.

I believe therapy doesn’t have to be intimidating. In fact, it can be one of the kindest things you do for yourself. Whether you’ve never tried therapy or you’re looking to reconnect with it, my approach is compassionate, practical, and always human. No judgment. Just a space to feel seen, heard, and supported. If you’re in Oklahoma and thinking about starting therapy, I’d love to hear from you.

The holidays don’t have to be perfect to be meaningful. Take a breath. Let go of “shoulds.” Peace grows when we trade pressure for presence.
