There’s a whole new meaning of this phrase for me. I was a professional Sunday Funday player. Didn’t matter the season or the reason. Loved, loved, loved them. But, man, how I loathed Mondays. Don’t hate me, but I am starting to love a good Monday. Body + Mind 207.0 I woke up at 7:30 […]

Money is weird. It doesn’t seem like it should be. At its simplest form, money is a tool of exchange used to facilitate transactions. It represents value and allows us to trade goods and services without the need for direct bartering.

Ever since I could make money, I spent beyond my means. I’ve always worked really hard so I could never really understand why I was constantly behind on bills; I should have been rolling in it. And over the years I have made sure that was the perception, within reason of course. I’m nothing if not Midwest Nice and would never want anyone to feel ‘less than’ around me.

For three full days I struggled with listening to and caring for myself versus disappointing someone else. I’ll be honest here, and this is embarrassing, I thought of many lies I could have told her that would have ‘forgiven’ me; illness that would have let me off the hook. But what kind of self-care coach would I be if I did that?

“Make sure you didn’t just buy yourself a job.”This piece of advice hit hard. One day, after a couple of years in, I was bartending at our wine bar and I was like, “oh fuck, I just bought myself a bartending job.” I swore I hung up my last bar rag in my late twenties. Very soon after that, I changed my perspective on hiring staff, rearranged the budget and started delegating tasks that I either didn’t like to do or just was plain not good at.

How many times have you said this to yourself? Well, you’re in good company. I am in my mid-forties and there are days where I just cannot seem to adult. Where I feel like EVERYONE else has their shit together.

As we navigate through the various stages of life, we often encounter moments of introspection and self-reflection. One common phenomenon that we experience is often referred to as a “midlife crisis.” This is not uncommon after the death of someone as close as a parent but there are many other situations that have us questioning our purpose here; empty nests, career and work changes, relationship shifts, infidelity, traumatic accidents or revelations, etc. But it also doesn’t have to be anything dramatic. Age can simply be the reason we start questioning our existence. It’s essential to delve deeper into this concept to understand whether it’s genuinely a crisis or simply a natural part of the human journey.

Hard to believe. Although, from this point on, they’ll all be hard to believe so I’ll stop saying it. Body + Mind 209.0 I haven’t looked back on any of my posts since Day 1. I figure at Day 91 I might go back and read all of them, but for now, I just haven’t. A […]
My dad turns 69 today. He’s half the reason I’m alive. (I’ll honor my mom in August since we definitely couldn’t have done it without her.) It’s so hard to swallow some of these numbers, although probably not as hard as it was to swallow that his middle child turned 40 last year. Since I […]
I have a long blog post written about the menstrual cycle but it’s not quite done yet so you’ll have to wait a little longer. Try to contain yourselves.

The further away I get from January 1st the more I realize the things I were so fearful of were just not real or if they have come to fruition, they weren’t that scary. Body + Mind 206.9 One of the motivations to journal this experience was to be as open and honest about the […]
So this journaling thing is new to me and it’s becoming increasingly hard to come up with new, interesting content about my daily life. Mainly because there’s really nothing interesting about my life. Which I think is just fine. Also, it probably goes without saying but I write these usually right before I go to […]
Body + Mind 205.2 Today was the first day in eight days I didn’t practice yoga. A few short months ago I wasn’t practicing, although it was always on my mind. Ya’ know…I should be doing this or I shouldn’t be doing that. I wanted to be able to say, “Hey hon, I’m going to […]
What 30 Days with no alcohol, coffee or soda has taught me. As I continue on to the next 2/3 of this journey, I thought I’d take this time to reflect on the last 30 days. If you would have asked me six months, or six years ago, to take 30 days sober, I would […]
I spent some of my precious, quiet morning time writing part of an article about how the first 30 days of this process has been so easy. And then spent the remainder of the day thinking about how it’s not. Body + Mind 205.2 According to my count, which I only just started counting, I […]
Do you have a go-to movie you watch if you just need background noise? Well, mine happens to be Miracle; the movie about the 1980 Winter Olympics where the USA Men’s Hockey team beat Russia. Watch it if you haven’t seen it. Great kids movie too. It’s a Disney movie so, of course, it’s a tear […]
