Are you exhausted? It's okay if you are. Really. Because let's face it, there are days (or even weeks) when we are beyond tired. And we can either ignore it or admit it. I, for one, firmly believe admitting it is the first step toward establishing a better plan for next time. And, if we're really honest, we want to figure out how to avoid ending up in this place again, right? If we wish to have a weekday of rest, it will no longer happen as a societal default. It will happen only as a ... [Read More]

Once upon a time there was a girl who wondered how to manage all of life's chaos, all of the days' minutiae, all of her heart's dreams, and all of her mind's doubts. For years she battled with insecurity, anxiety, doubt, and worry. The calendar pages moved from year to year and every January 1st brought her a fresh determination to be different.
