If you could host a dinner and anyone you invite was sure to come, who would you invite?
Mel Robbins and Amy Noonan (Qveen Herby) for sure. I feel like I’d want a couple of my close girl friends with me as well, but selfishly part of me also would want full, undivided time with these mental health / healing icons!
What do you think gets better with age?
Love.
What time do you go to bed and wake up currently?
My alarm goes off at 6am every day so I can get up and give my cat her insulin. I stay up during the weekdays since I go to work shortly after, but on most weekends I will usually go back to bed until about 9am.
As far as going to bed, if I fall asleep too early like 9:30-10:00pm, then my body wakes me up around 5am which I honestly don’t prefer. I’ve been trying to go to bed later around 10:30-11:00pm so I can sleep through the night until my alarm.
What strategies do you use to increase comfort in your daily life?
When I think of comfort, I think of peace. Some of the things I do to increase comfort are:
• wearing comfortable clothing (sweats & yogas)
• listening to calming music like Cleo Sol
• stretching my body in an intentional and slow way
• journaling (brings the mind comfort)
• “It is what it is” is actually a powerful mindset
• Waking up next to the love of your life is an incredible blessing that people don’t talk enough about
• Media is propaganda- and it’s waaaayyy more in our faces than it ever was in our history books
• Fear sells- be mindful of who is profiting off your consumption.
• Cleo Sol is a true healer- her music makes me feel so calm and connected
• Sensitive souls are necessary
Today is 7/7- a magical, lucky day! To celebrate, here are 7 things (insert Miley Cyrus singing here) I am grateful for today:
On what subject(s) are you an authority?
At first I was like I really can’t think of anything, but in reality that’s not completely true. I could talk a lot about dental insurance from the aspect of working within a dental office. I can talk about my own healing journey from growing up with alcoholic parents as well. I also could discuss relationship advice, but again based on my own relationship/marriage with my husband. I guess I still wouldn’t say I’m an authority on any of these subjects though because it’s all based on my own experience, rather than hard facts and research.
This weekend is busy, but it’s full of so much joy which is much needed. Yesterday was the 4th, so we went over to our friend’s house as they were hosting a BBQ. It was so nice to hang with everyone and also enjoy the bomb ass food!
Today my husband and I went to breakfast at our favorite place, and now we’re just chilling before I leave to hang with one of my other friends! I get to meet her new kitten today and we’re just gonna go with the glow and see where the day takes us! Part of me is hoping we go to the pool because it is hot and humid as hell today!
Tomorrow my husband has his go-karting league so I’m going to go watch him race! His friend who joined last time is going to race too, and this time his fiancé (also our friend) is going to join so her and I can grab a drink and watch our men do their thing!
The best part of all is my office is closed on Monday for construction so then I have a day to rest and recharge before the week! I’m just feeling so blessed and grateful to be present for the joy around me. July is feeling magical so far!
