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?

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.

Do you remember the Beastie Boys song, Sabotage? Well I do. And sometimes I think it might be my life theme song. I just looked up the lyrics to see if I could relate to any of them…ah, no. When they’re typed out all organized they make no sense at all. I prefer the screaming […]
Well, this morning didn’t start off on a great foot. Just one of those days I guess. Body + Mind 202.8 Being woken up at 4:30am to a husband thinking it’s Tuesday and an annoying sinus headache was the not the highlight of my week. I haven’t been sick in months and I considered calling […]
203.5 Want to know what I did today? Nothing. And I don’t feel good about it. When I was a kid, if you laid on the couch for more than a hot minute you were lazy. Every minute of the day you needed to be “doing” something productive. Taking a day to lay around and […]
Phew. I didn’t think I was going to make it out of yesterday’s funk, but I’m happy to report I am much better today. Body + Soul 203.5 Talk about self-care Sunday. I slept like a super champ last night and until 7 this morning. Very unlike me. My nose finally cleared up and thank […]
It was the coffee wagon, but still. Well, sort of. I had a decaf latte at my local coffee shop. I haven’t stepped foot in the place since January 1st and I felt it was my civic duty. Yes, I totally could have had tea, but damn that latte tasted good. Failure? Maybe. Body + […]
203.5 For the past week or so, I have been sort of melancholy. I am not sure if the novelty has worn off of this thing or it’s just my mind, body and soul adjusting to new habits. I’m guessing it’s a little bit of both. I’ve had to deal with some old familiar feelings […]
Body + Soul 203.5 It’s hard to explain how your body feels to someone else. Even to myself. I know things are changing, but even I can’t explain it. Today, for the first time ever, I was able to grab my feet for bow pose during my yoga practice. Last week I couldn’t. I couldn’t […]
