Can you hold heartbreak and healing at the same time?

Hey friend, This week’s reflection comes straight from my Sugg-Jess-tion Box: a place where you get to toss in your burning questions, messy thoughts, or the things you wish someone would just talk about already. The question was this: “Is it really possible to hold both heartbreak and healing at the same time?” Here’s the truth: grief and healing don’t happen in neat, clean stages. You don’t finish heartbreak and then move on to healing. Most days, you’re holding both at once. One hand...

There’s a version of you that’s been buried under years of playing nice. Of keeping the peace. Of making yourself smaller just to fit into rooms that couldn’t hold you. You bit your tongue to avoid tension. You quieted your brilliance to make others more comfortable. You told yourself that maybe less of you would be easier to love. But the truth? They still left. Or they stayed and made you question your worth. So here’s your permission slip to stop. Stop diluting your magic.Stop bending to...

This is for the woman who’s done being the “good girl” The one who bites her tongue, makes herself small, and swallows the truth just to keep the peace. If you’re honest… you know that’s you. You’ve been standing on this side of the bridge your whole damn life, looking at the woman you could be on the other side.The one who speaks her mind without flinching.Who says “no” without the apology.Who takes up every inch of space she’s earned. That bridge? It’s not going to cross itself.And every...

Let’s talk about the lie. The one most of us were sold before we even knew how to listen to our bodies.Be nice. Be agreeable. Keep the peace.Be good, even if it costs you yourself. I remember TOO many moments in my life where I chose being liked over being honest.My gut said no.My mouth said, “Sure, whatever you need.”And my body? It’s still remembering.... That’s what people-pleasing does. It makes you betray your own truth in the name of being “good.” But here’s the thing: What if the truth...

Hey Reader You know those questions that swirl in your head at 2AM? The ones you’re afraid to ask out loud?

Those. Well, 'Sugg-Jess-tions' has entered the chat, my new weekly advice series where I answer your questions with raw truth, a little sass, and a lot of heart. Here’s how it...

I’ve been holding Sacred Circle for almost four years now. Guiding, grounding, weaving women together in truth and tenderness. And while I always share in Circle, it's a different thing entirely when you're the one holding the container. You’re attuned to every breath in the room.Listening for what isn’t said.Making sure each woman feels seen, safe, supported.Tending the timing. Managing the energy.There’s a sacred responsibility in that, and it’s one I hold with deep reverence. But this...

We love to label things. Good job? Good stress.Toxic ex? Bad stress. But your body doesn’t speak in categories Reader, it speaks in sensation. Whether you’re prepping for a big opportunity or walking away from something that broke you, your nervous system reacts the same way: Your heart races.Your breath shortens.Your shoulders creep up toward your ears. That’s survival mode. And it doesn’t care about context. Here’s what that means: Success can burn you out just as fast as heartbreak can....

Hey Reader Let’s get straight to it: When you start doing what’s best for yourself, you're going to piss people off. Do it anyway. Choosing yourself is going to rattle some cages. You’ll make decisions that feel damn good for your nervous system—but inconvenient for someone else’s expectations. And guess what? That’s not your problem. Do it anyway. You’re not here to be palatable.You’re not here to play small.You’re not here to abandon yourself so someone else can stay comfortable. You’re...

Hey Reader, Coming in hot, as I have something on my heart (and thought you may need to hear it, too): You do not owe your parents—or anyone else—a relationship just because they share your blood. I hear all the time, “You only get one mom.” And? I'm her only daughter. So many of us were taught that honoring our parents meant sacrificing ourselves. That unconditional love meant accepting emotional manipulation, guilt trips, boundary violations, or silence where there should’ve been safety....

Let’s talk about discernment. Someone recently said to me: “I feel naive when it comes to people. I always assume the best, trust quickly, and then get blindsided. I don’t want to be cynical… but I also don’t want to keep getting hurt.” It's important to know that you're likely not naive, but heart-forward. If you lead with hope, trust, and an open heart, it's something to change... but protect. Because yeah… it can sting when people aren’t as intentional, honest, or aligned as you are....
