This year I feel very clear about how I am choosing to show up for the holidays and this last month of the year. ��Instead of feeling like I’m in the “end of year” time crunch, I’m choosing spaciousness and peacefulness this December. I want time to breathe, to connect, and to simply be. So I am letting go of the things that pull me into rushing, overspending, or trying to keep up with a pace that does not honor me and my truth this season.��E.G., this year I told my siblings that instead of buying each other things, I want to plan a weekend trip together. I don’t need another sweater, I need late night laughs and long hugs :) And the gifts I am giving my people will be ones that support them and their nervous systems. Circadian rhythm glasses, spa treatments, trips to our healing hotel and its mineral waters, red light therapy devices etc. because I want the people I love to feel well in their minds and their bodies.��Underneath all of this is the reminder to myself to remember what matters most to me this December and to share that presence with those around me. ��So, in this holiday “rush” of a season, remember: ��You are allowed to have needs and to give to yourself too.��You are allowed to ask for the things you truly seek and need from loved ones.��You are allowed to choose peace, even when the world around you is rushing.��My daily prayer practice this month: God, please let me choose presence today. Let me feel deeply connected to the world within me and around me. Let me stay anchored to my heart and rooted to Your earth. This December, I hope you give yourself the permission to follow what feels right and true for you. :)

I look around at the people in my life and feel this deep sense of fullness.

Some I was born into, others became family over time, and every one of them has shaped my world in a way I could have only dreamed of years ago.

The older I get, the more I realize that real richness comes from community. Mine is filled with creative souls, steady friends, and loved ones who feel like home.

This family, both chosen and not, is one I used to dream about being surrounded by. I feel so lucky to live inside it now

We aren’t meant to bloom every single day.

There are slow seasons, quiet seasons, seasons that feel like a drought. But believe me when I say every season, every moment is JUST RIGHT.

Part of awakening your inner light is not about feeling lightness every day. It is about remembering that everything within you and around you moves in cycles. Your body does. Your career. Your environment. Your relationships. Your joy. They all have seasons, too.

When you honor the one you’re in, you stop fighting yourself and start accepting and honoring where you are. You start tapping into what actually brings you peace and joy in THIS moment of your life; not the one you like more. You start meeting and loving the version of you who feels radiant in a silk dress in Paris and the version of you who is curled up at home in sweats just doing nothing at all.

Both are you. Both are beautiful. Both are worthy. Both are enough.

Here’s to embracing every season, every version, and every moment that wants to express herself within you.

WOW. I was on the phone with my sister (we talk every day), and she said, “Kelsey… you are so different. I really hope you can see the difference between the Kelsey before and the Kelsey that’s here now. I’ve watched your growth, and I’m so proud of you.” Cue the tears…

If I am being honest, the 2024 version of me really would not believe who I am right now.

A year ago, I couldn’t even imagine giving to myself in the ways I do now. But I just wrapped up what I’ve been calling my “30-day trial” of adding some daily micro practices to help support my macro health and it’s been deeply, wildly nourishing.
Here’s what I’ve been doing:
💫 Turmeric pills twice a day for inflammation
💫 10-minute foam roller for spinal alignment
💫 Vitamin D and C daily
💫 Infrared Sauna 3x per week
💫 An almost daily 20-minute journaling ritual
💫 Monthly lymphatic drainage
💫 More connection with friends who ground me
💫 Weekly date nights
💫 LaserMD to finally heal an old injury
💫 Acupuncture every other week
💫 Weekly therapy + monthly couples therapy

I am so beyond proud to be my own living proof of not only what one year can do but ALSO one month of micro changes! Here’s to MACRO expansion and JOY!

I have been sitting with my experience at the summit because it truly felt like medicine.

Grounding, expansive, and filled with the kind of conversations that stay with you long after you have left the room.
It meant so much to be there with my best friend and to be invited into this space. I had the honor of being a speaker and guiding a practice, but the real gift was witnessing what happens when people come together and speak openly about mental health, su***de, and those deeply human moments of desperation we often keep hidden. When we come together in vulnerability, we create space for love, support, and hope to grow as both humans and as leaders.

I met the most unbelievable people from neuroscientists to CEOs, musicians, and artists. I felt so honored to be in rooms where everyone was committed to healing, storytelling and human connection. It genuinely felt like finding my people in the world.

One of the talks that stayed with me was from .brackett who shared the story of his uncle, Marvin. Uncle Marvin was a public school teacher who shaped so much of Dr. Brackett’s work on emotional intelligence by being the first person he could truly open up to about some very difficult childhood trauma and experiences. He spoke about the three qualities that he learned from his Uncle for building strong relationships. They are: presence, trust, and safety. It was such a powerful reminder of how life changing it is to have someone like that in your world where you can truly share your hardships and pain and how meaningful it is to be that person for others whenever you can.

I feel so lucky that I have people like that in my life, including my bestie and so many others. I hope and pray we all have an Uncle Marvin and I will be carrying this whole experience with me for a long time. Thank you, and for this unforgettable experience!

I’ll always laugh about my “fifteen minutes of fame,” and these real moments with strangers that happen to me ALL the time in the world. That show was only a tiny snapshot of who I was back then and an even smaller reflection of who I am today.

Long BEFORE Vanderpump Rules and long after it, I have taught, created, spoken, held space, and supported people in finding and nurturing more peace and joy in their lives.

My heart has always been in the work I do both on and off-camera. My enthusiasm for our collective growth, healing and human potential is what fills me up and the part that I hope and pray will last me a lifetime. ✨

At 16, someone shared a quote with me that I would have never expected to stick with me all these years later:

“Life is 10% of what’s given to you and 90% of how you respond to it.”

Fast forward a few decades, it has become a truth I return to in every season of my life.

In my relationships, in my work, in my pain, in motherhood, in receiving, in healing, in the moments that stretch me and the moments that surprise me. What happens around me matters, but how I MOVE and dance with it is what I’m realizing actually matters the most.

If you’re in the LA area, I would love to invite you to take a moment for you before the week rushes in. 

Join me and at The London WEHO for Soulful Sunday on October 26. You can expect a moment to pause, exhale, and realign with joy through community, breathwork, connection and mindful, OPEN and expansive movement.
Together, we’ll shake off the noise, settle into our bodies, and create space for clarity to unfold.

Come exactly as you are. 

Comment ‘SOULFUL’ and I’ll DM you the link to book your spot ✨

Raise your hand if you had a (big or small) identity crisis after becoming a mother? Anyone else feel like they couldn’t “go back” to the same life and way of being after becoming a mom?

Before becoming a mother, I thought I had it all mapped out: my purpose, my path, my rhythm. 

I had carefully crafted a life that felt aligned. But motherhood came in and rewrote the script.

The transition to motherhood isn’t just physical. It is spiritual, emotional, and cellular. It stripped me of the titles I clung to and forced me to meet myself in a new way. 

I didn’t do it all once, I didn’t do it gracefully most of the time, but I did learn to do it with love, compassion and tenderness.

I had the joy of sharing part of this chapter of my journey with the lovely Danielle on her podcast. So honored to be a guest for a SECOND time on this beautiful show she has built and created. She is an incredible human. Thank you, Danielle, for the space you held for me as we spoke so openly about the unraveling and rebuilding that comes with motherhood, mental health, and healing through illness.

You can comment MOTHERHOOD and I’d be happy to send you the link to listen to the full episode.
