Thank you to the City of Franklin for the opportunity to present on attachment and emotional health during Mental Health Awareness Month.

I’m grateful for spaces that encourage conversations around relationships, self-awareness, and mental wellness, both in and outside of the workplace. 💚

Does your body ever tighten, shut down, or suddenly feel on edge without warning? Maybe you don’t even know why it’s happening.

It’s likely unprocessed experiences living in the nervous system. EMDR helps your brain and body finally process what got “stuck,” so those moments don’t feel so overwhelming anymore.

If you’ve been wondering about EMDR, I shared more in my latest blog.�Link in bio

A life of comfort doesn’t produce the fullness we hope for.

If you want something different, it will likely require a risk.

That could mean…
* Being honest with yourself
* Having that scary conversation
* Daring to try something new

A new choice may stretch you, but nothing changes if nothing changes.

What’s the next right step you can take?

Ten journal prompts to inspire peace, hope, joy, and wonder this Christmas season. Reflect on the past year and set your heart on the hope and light of what’s to come.

As we move into the holiday season, let this serve as a gentle reminder.

Most of our anxiety comes from wrestling with things that are outside of our control.

Peace comes when we focus on what’s truly ours to control—and release ourselves from the rest.
