🌿 Growth often means releasing what no longer fits.
When we hold on to things that don’t naturally align with who we are, they weigh us down. By letting go, we open ourselves to clarity, peace, and the space to welcome what truly supports our well-being.

At Empowered Wellness & Solutions, we encourage you to trust the process of release—because what’s meant for you will feel lighter, more authentic, and deeply aligned.

✨ What are you ready to let go of to make room for what nourishes you?

It’s normal to feel low sometimes—whether from stress, illness, or uncertainty. What helps is focusing on what you can control: caring for your health, nurturing relationships, and practicing self-compassion.

According to Steve Taylor in his book DisConnected, racism can develop when people feel insecure and seek belonging in a group, which then strengthens their identity.

In reality, race has no biological basis — we are all one human family with shared origins, shaped only by adaptations to different environments.

September 30 is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, also known as Orange Shirt Day. It is a day to honour the Indigenous children that were taken away through the Residential “School” System, and their families and communities. It is a day to raise awareness of the horrific experiences many Indigenous people had in Residential “Schools,” as well as the legacy of this system. It is a moment to recognize not only historic harms but also the intergenerational impacts and ongoing violence Indigenous communities continue to face.

Sometimes therapy feels like fixing… but really, it’s about growth, healing, and learning new ways to thrive 🌱💡

Because even your Wi-Fi needs a reset now and then. 😉
