Inhale —Pause —Exhale—Pause.

There’s no rulebook for this.

Nobody tells you this, but somewhere along the way you figure out on your own that it’s totally normal and okay to be overwhelmed. To feel like it’s more than you can bear, to question whether you can sustain it, and to wonder if you’re able to take care of yourself, the person you’re supporting, and the outside chaos of the world all at once.

Navigating finding your way is a part of the journey and whether you feel alone in it or not, you’re not alone.

What’s blooming for you this spring?

My mother needed me in a way she never had.

I became her person.

Honestly, my mother has always bugged me. The best thing I did was put her at arms length. When my stepdad suddenly died after being sick for 5 years — in an instant, I had to pick my mom up off the floor and become her primary caregiver in every single way.

Nobody hands you a manual for this.

One day you’re a daughter. The next you’re finding a staff to take care of your parent 24/7, navigating through a life changing diagnosis, and learning how to
manage and take care her financial, mental, legal, physical and emotional well being.

I love her. I also didn’t volunteer for this.

Aside from hired help, I am completely alone in this.
I was not prepared. Friends and family don’t always show up the way you hope — and realizing that while you’re already stretched is its own particular grief.

If you’re somewhere in this: the role reversal, the resentment underneath the love, the exhaustion of being the capable one — I see you.

You’re not alone.

The return.

I’ve been quiet for a little over a year. Here’s the honest reason why.

SHIFT started when I was in Hawaii around my 46th birthday. I took a year to heal after my grandmother died.

Healing myself after the passing of the person I loved most caused grief to crack something open, and I needed somewhere to put it. Maui was my medicine. Wellness was my language. And for a while, sharing that felt like the truest thing I did.

Then the metrics started mattering. The likes, the aesthetic, the performance. I was helping others while not helping myself. That’s the honest version.

Then this past year. Our city caught fire, and it was extinguished 10 feet from my home. I couldn’t function. My stepfather died, and that night, in that moment, I became my mother’s mother. As a chronically ill 52-year-old, my body had already been changing for years in ways I didn’t recognize. There was zero desire to post anything, let alone help others, when I found myself in a cycle of crisis, trauma, and resilience. So I stopped.

Letting go of SHIFT, which I worked so hard to build, was never an option. That’s also the honest version.

So SHIFT and I are coming back. Not to perform, not to inspire, not to curate. I’m coming back because helping others has always fostered my own healing, and I am finally in a place where I am ready to share an honest view of what I’ve been through. Less ego. More realness.

As messy and human as I may look, here I am.

As 2024 draws to a close, we take a moment to reflect—not just on the chaos and challenges we couldn’t avoid, but also on the good moments that brought joy, connection, and light into our lives. 🌿✨

Each of us has carried lessons from this year. What will you hold onto as you step into 2025? 🌙 And what will you leave behind?

This season, we give ourselves the gift of reflection: to celebrate what was good, to honor what was hard, and to imagine the possibilities ahead. 🌱💛

As we begin to plant the seeds in our personal gardens, let’s nurture hope, connection, and all that lights us up. 🌸💫

Here’s to closing the year with gratitude and stepping into 2025 with intention and joy. 🌟

And to all, a good night and a hopeful new year. ✨🎄

Starting your day with nourishment is an act of self-care, an investment in energy and resilience. Each ingredient in your morning smoothie is a gift from nature, designed to support, heal, and empower you for whatever the day brings. Think of this as a ritual of gratitude and respect—for your body, and for the earth. 🥬🌞

🥑 Choose ingredients that energize and support balanced energy
🍓 Add antioxidant-rich berries for a burst of vitality
🥬 add greens such as kale, broccoli, and spinach for vitamins and minerals
💪 add protein to nourish your muscles
💧 Savor each sip, connecting with the vibrant energy of every ingredient

The holiday season invites both joy and reflection. Let this be a time of balance— celebration and self-care.

Balance isn’t about sacrifice; it’s about finding the joy that feels right for you. 🎉💖 Some helpful ways we are practicing balance and self care:

🌠 Reflect on traditions that uplift and resonate with your spirit

🕊️ Set boundaries that protect your energy and well-being

🧘‍♀️Prioritize moments of movement and mindfulness as acts of grounding
