I Cried for Weeks Over a Stranger. Then I Found Out Why.
Before I Knew I Was An Empath About 40 years ago, I read a story in the Philadelphia Daily News that shook me to my core. A three-year-old girl had been locked in a bedroom and left there. Alone. For months. When she was finally found, her small body was kneeling beside the bed in a praying position. I put the newspaper down and I cried. Not just that day. I cried for weeks. I didn’t know her, or…
Protect Your Peace
“Peace is not the absence of chaos. It is the refusal to let chaos rule your inner world.” This is not a calm season. There’s a lot happening in our country right now. You can feel it in the air. It hums in conversations, in headlines and social media feeds. It shows up as tension in the shoulders, shallow breathing, shorter patience. We are living in a time of collective stress. And whether we…
If It Still Lives in You, It Is Still Possible
I know it feels like you missed your chance sometimes. When you look back and see years that didn’t go the way you thought they would. Or when you measure where you are against where you thought you’d be by now. It’s easy to believe you missed something. And I’m not going to tell you to just believe harder. I’m not going to hand you a formula. I just want to say what I wish someone had said to…
Move the Stone: A Reflection
I was at the lowest point in my life in 2011. Dealing with the devastating loss of my granddaughter, my job, my home – the very foundation of my life. Anger, grief, shame, and guilt were my live-in companions. And most of my days were spent catering to them. But every now and then Hope stopped by for a visit… to remind me that God had not forgotten me and a future free of my companions was…
Stop Trying to 'Let It Go': What to Do with Decades of Suppressed Rage
You can’t release what you haven’t allowed yourself to feel.The only way through is through. You’re angry. And people love to tell you to “let it go.” As if anger is something you’re choosing to carry out of stubbornness. As if you haven’t already tried to release it. You’ve meditated on it, journaled about it. Prayed on it. Tried to forgive But the anger is still there. When people say, “let it…
Reclaim Your Worth: Ending the Cycle of Self-Abandonment
There’s a particular kind of exhaustion that comes from self-abandonment: from spending years making yourself smaller. It’s not the tiredness of physical labor or even emotional strain, it’s something deeper, more fundamental. It’s the weariness of constantly editing yourself before you even finish a thought. Of swallowing your needs before they fully form into words. Of becoming so skilled at…
The Power of Renewal: Transforming Exhaustion into Energy
Renewal is the foundation that makes everything else possible. And the longer we treat it as optional, the more brittle we become. I used to believe that exhaustion was just part of the deal. That if I cared deeply about my work, my people, my purpose, feeling depleted was simply the price of admission. Rest was what happened after everything else was done. Which meant, of course, that it rarely…
Why Your Healing Journey Will Change You Forever
When you begin, nobody tells you about the grief that comes with healing. Because it sounds counterintuitive. Why would getting better involve loss? Through my own healing journey and decades of walking alongside people through their most tender seasons I’ve learned: healing demands that you release the version of yourself that learned how to survive inside the wound. And that version? You might…
More Presence for What’s Precious
As the year begins to loosen its grip and we find ourselves standing at the edge of what’s been and what’s coming, something in us naturally starts to slow down and take stock. Not in a rushed, goal-setting kind of way—but in a quieter, more honest way. The kind of looking that happens when the noise fades and the heart finally gets a word in. For many of us, this past year has held both…
How to Release Stuck Emotions From Your Body: 3 Gentle Ways
Many of us are carrying emotions we never had the time, safety, or support to fully feel when they first arrived. When that happens, the body steps in and holds them for us. What we couldn’t grieve, express, or release in the moment often settles quietly into our muscles, our breath, our posture, and our nervous system. You might notice it as tight shoulders that never quite relax, a heavy…
The Hidden Cost of Self-Abandonment: It's Time to Stop Shrinking
“Self-abandonment is the quiet act of disappearing from your own life to keep someone else comfortable. Coming home is the decision to stop leaving yourself behind.”—Taylor Gilmore I know what it’s like to put yourself last without even realizing you’re doing it.I did it for most of my life. And even now, I still catch myself slipping back into those old patterns. Saying yes because it’s easier.…
Loving Yourself: A Sacred Journey and Divine Responsibility
When Jesus said, “Love your neighbor as yourself” (Mark 12:31), He revealed a profound truth about the nature of love. Embedded in this commandment is an often-overlooked principle: loving yourself is a prerequisite to genuinely loving others. This kind of self-love isn’t about selfishness or vanity; it’s about acknowledging your God-given worth and treating yourself with the care and…
Healing from Trauma: Nurturing the Mind, Body, and Spirit
Trauma has a powerful impact that reaches far beyond the initial event, casting long shadows over our mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. When we experience trauma—whether it’s physical, emotional, or spiritual—its effects can become lodged deep within us, shaping our responses, our beliefs, and even our bodies. For those navigating the journey to healing, understanding how trauma…
How to Stop Taking Offense and Find Inner Peace
Release the impulse to take offense Whether it’s a slight comment on social media, a perceived snub at work, or a differing opinion from a friend, many find themselves quick to anger and slow to forgive. But why are we so easily offended, and how can we learn to release this impulse for a more harmonious and fulfilling life? The Roots of Offense To understand why we are easily offended, it’s…
Shadow Work: What it is and Why You Should Care
Shadow Work is a facinating and journey into the depths of your subconcious mind. It’s a process of uncovering, embracing, and integrating the hidden, often repressed parts of ourselves that shape our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Rooted in the work of Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung, Shadow Work invites us to explore our “shadow”—the aspects of ourselves we may deny, ignore, or suppress…
Self-Acceptance vs Self-Improvement: How To Tell the Difference

This statement highlights the delicate balance between self-acceptance and self-improvement, two concepts that often find themselves in a complex dance within our lives. Understanding…
How to Recognize and Transform Hidden Feelings of Unworthiness
Feelings of unworthiness often operate quietly beneath the surface of our conscious mind. For many women, especially those of us over 50, this deep-rooted feeling may not even be something we’re fully aware of, yet it influences every aspect of our lives. Today, we’ll discuss the many ways this pervasive emotional block manifests. And explore spiritual, mental and emotional techniques to help you…
