Take the Long Way Home: A Lesson on Slowing Down When Life Throws You a Curveball

The other night, I cried over pizza. Let me explain…

I had this fun idea to order takeout pizza and then take the kiddos to a local farm that serves ice cream to eat it outside (and look at the farm animals). 
It was my picture “perfect” plan, until a wrench got thrown in it. 

As we head out the door to cram it all in before the race to kid’s bedtime (IYKYK), we hit a road block when a traffic jam turned our six-minute ride into a 20-minute detour through back roads.

When we finally arrived to pick up the pizza 30 minutes late, mine wasn’t even started yet. It would be another 15 minute wait. 

So we drove to the farm to kill time…without our pizza. As I looked at the empty picnic tables where we could have been enjoying our family dinner, I could feel my energy start to shift. I was was fuming.

Now it was getting past little guys bedtime, we still hadn’t eaten and my perfect plan was “ruined.” Frustrated, I ran inside to order a quart of ice cream to go instead, and back to the pizza place we went.

5 Steps for Manifesting Your Desires this Summer

Read full article | 1 Comment

Not only is summer the season for beach trips, watermelon, and lobstah rolls, but it’s also the season for manifesting and taking action.  

While spring was all about planting seeds (both literally and figuratively), now is the time to watch your garden grow/see it all come to fruition. I call it the “season of yes” – saying yes to whatever fuels your soul. Today on the blog, I’m sharing some of my go-to manifestation tips for summertime!

5 Quick Steps for Summer Manifestation

  1. Ask yourself how you want to FEEL this summer.
  2. If you’re unsure, simply follow the path that lights you up – what ignites your passion + creativity
  3. Set your intention based on how you want to feel.
  4. Take conscious, feel-good action in alignment with your intention.
  5. Let go and ask for guidance from the universe! 

When you do the work, this stuff works.

In fact, I spent the entire spring season planting seeds and mapping out my Bliss Sisterhood, and the first week of summer finally felt like the perfect time to LAUNCH. It just felt right.

Go ahead…utilize that fiery summer energy to your advantage! 

P.S. I still have some

“Spring is proof that there is beauty in new beginnings” -Matshona Dhliwayo

I started seeing an energy healer seven years ago and have booked sessions on and off ever since. Before my call last week, it hit me that all of my sessions tend to fall on the same date — right around April 1st give or take a few days. 

I then realized that it’s no coincidence. I’m subconsciously being called to shed old layers of myself to welcome the new. After all, energetically, spring is a season of renewal and new beginnings so this makes perfect sense. It’s no wonder many of us are called do some serious spring cleaning this time of year too (mentally and physically)!

It also makes sense why I had been seeing turkey vultures in our yard this spring. While at first I was freaked out by the symbolism, turns out they represent cleansing & renewal. A ha! 🤯 I heard the message loud and clear. 

I’m so excited to dive deeper into this discussion at next week’s Spring Bliss Circle to celebrate the shift in seasons and have some fun pulling affirmation cards, meditating + journaling too! Would love to have you there!
