My 5th-Grade Bullies and I Shared Something Rather Unexpected.
There’s an interesting thing about being bullied. It doesn’t matter whether it’s others in your life who are bullying you or your own INNER bully, the impact can be so similar.
How Did Fun End Up at the BOTTOM of My To-Do List…Again?
Ummm, when did so many of us become convinced we’re only free to have fun if we’ve taken care of all our other responsibilities first?
An Abused Woman Has More in Common with Others Than One Might Think…
None of us want to have behaviors that don’t serve us! Yet we’ve all still got some, right? What if it turns out it’s simply a part of us driving those choices and behaviors – not all of us?
I was aching for a day of COVID quarantine. And then this happened…
“Guys, do you know what I would give to have just ONE day of COVID quarantine again?!” That’s exactly what I said to a bunch of parents on the sidelines of my younger daughter’s soccer practice last week.

Something unexpected happened last week. I was snuggling in bed with my 6-year-old daughter, doing our nighttime routine: reading a book (which I got REALLY into!!), rubbing her back, and kissing her goodnight.
