I’ve been practicing therapy for nearly 20 years now. I put my all into every client’s journey back home to themselves. Being human doesn’t equate to being incompetent. It’s simply being human. We want people to feel safe & supported @ every turn & it’s heartbreaking when that does not occur. When you give your therapist grace, you give yourself grace. Joining the healing human race.

Happy Monday Family
It’s Monday Motivation time! “Gratitude & Attitude are not challenges; their choices…”
-Robert Braathe

What do you have to be grateful for today? Whether it’s something small or something huge, we all have a choice to see the value in these gifts we’ve been given and respond with genuine thankfulness. How will you choose to respond today?

Good Morning Family! It’s Tuesday so you know what that means. Let’s start our day off with some Tea ☕️
•
What has you worried today?
Is it your job? Your kids? Your car? Your spouse? Everyone has worries it’s natural, especially when we care deeply about these things; however, worry doesn’t have to consume you. If you will… reflect on what’s inside your control. What can you do to change your worry? If your answer is nothing… let it go. If there is something you come up with, act upon it and then let the rest flow.

Happy Monday Family! Our encouragement for today comes from
“To overcome all that you have in this life and to still be here, daring to continue, is a true testament to your character as strength. I’m proud of you.”

Vulnerability:
The quality or state of being exposed to the possibility of being attacked or harmed, either physically or emotionally.

“Vulnerability is not winning or losing; it’s having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome. Vulnerability is not weakness; it’s our greatest measure of courage.”
-Brene Brown

It’s still August, so that means it’s still National Black Owned Business Month. Got to love it!
If you haven’t already check out a black owned business in your area this weekend. Show these hard working men and women some love, your support goes a long way!
