Mental chatter is just that... chatter. You do not have to hold onto or believe every thought that comes into your head. Just let it run through like ticker tape and believe the thoughts that serve you best.

Friends. We are in a time where we all need to encourage, uplift and support one another. Go out every day and send one friend an encouraging text, make one call and uplift your colleague, send a family member a supportive and hilarious meme. We are in dire need of positivity and light. And to my dear friends... lookout 👀 I'm coming for you this year.

“Pain + Reflection = Progress” ~Jay Shetty
2020 has no doubt been one of the most challenging years of any of our lives. But, as the wise so cleverly says, we can’t have progress without pain, but for that pain to serve its purpose, we must reflect upon it and learn from it.
This year I have lost my last remaining grandparents, many family members of close friends, the amazing Ann Reinking, the “normalcy” of my career, and my identity as a dancer and teacher. While death and change are constants in life, the sheer quantity of death and changes that happened in such a short time was shocking and overwhelming. I wallowed, I mourned, I hid, I grieved, but I kept going. I learned, I adapted, I loved more fully, I grew.
As Jay Shetty also so wisely says, adaptability is a superpower 🦸‍♀️ And boy is that the biggest lesson of all this year! We will always be shifting and changing and evolving, and how we react to those changes is our choice. So in this new year, go forth with positivity, love, compassion, grace, and the ability to adapt! Serve others, love others, and be kind, and the world you know will slowly start to shift with you. Drop a comment below ⤵️ and share with anyone who may need to hear this! Also, if you’re not listening to Jay Shetty’s podcast yet, you need to get on that shizz ASAP!! Happy New Year fam and hope 2021 serves you well 🎆🎉🎊

Working in my this morning and trying to be mindful of my experiences and clear in my gratitude for each of them.
2020 has been a hard year for everyone. I’ve succumbed to letting the challenges overtake me and using them as an excuse to not press forward. It’s amazing how our brains and bodies look for the easiest pathway... but I’m remembering that’s not always the best pathway. Here’s to building better habits to help keep me strong even in challenging times!
