Worry is sneaky!
It will steal your energy, your peace, and focus on the now. You won’t always get it right, but it’s important to challenge yourself not to FEED what you cannot control or change.

Try this:
☀️Take a deep breath and name one thing you can control today.
☀️Pause before spiraling, even a 30-second reset matters.

What’s one thing you’re choosing to focus on today instead of worry?

It’s soooooo easy to scroll, to compare, and to feel like we’re falling behind, even when you are cognizant that your path is unique, and your timing is yours alone.

This is part of being human.
You have the logic, but it isn’t always louder than the other voices right?

✨ Tips to stop measuring:
1. Limit social scrolling THE MOMENT you realize it has triggered comparison.
2. Celebrate your wins, no matter how small. Celebrate with yourself. Celebrate with others.
3. Set personal goals, not borrowed ones.
4. Journal your progress, even tiny steps count. I always encourage auditory journaling if you find yourself not wanting to write it down. This way you have a reference and you can reflect without forgetting those pieces!
5. Remind yourself: growth isn’t linear, and you’re exactly where you need to be.

So….What’s one small win you’re proud of today?
Let’s celebrate you ☀️

We all have those “aha” moments… and some of us have a full collection of them, but let’s be real, life doesn’t move especially in a direction we desire, if we don’t actually do something about them!

💬 Tell me: what’s one piece of advice you’ve been holding onto but haven’t tried yet? And if you have acted on it m, what happened?

Sure!
Being unbothered CAN be a vibe☀️, but the reality is, it’s not a permanent state!!

Even the calmest souls get shaken sometimes. The goal isn’t to never feel, it’s to know how to come back to center when you do.
it’s about regulating, releasing, and responding with awareness. letting things move through you, not pretending they don’t touch you.✨

Fear of abandonment can start in places where safety and consistency were missing — and grow into patterns that make us expect rejection, even when love is safe.

Awareness is powerful, but healing comes when we learn to self-soothe the anxiety that whispers “they’ll leave.”
Otherwise, we risk pushing away the very care and consistency we crave.

Awareness is the first step, but self-soothing is the bridge that helps you stop reliving the old story in new relationships. And you can finally make room for love that stays 💛💭✨

Just because it’s quiet doesn’t mean you’re not growing. The still seasons often carry the deepest transformation. Your roots are taking hold. Your strength is building. Don’t let the silence convince you that you’ve stopped moving. You’re evolving
Even here, even now. Keep showing up☀️

Have you been thinking about going solo in private practice? ✨ Well, if you have it’s important to keep in mind that doing so is more than just a career move — it’s an entire mindset shift. You are going from therapist… to mental health CEO.

It can be exciting, but also nerve-wracking, and (at least at first) you may feel unsure of where to begin.   That’s why I created the to share the things I know many aren’t thinking about BEFORE they get started. 
So if you have been considering this type of shift, here are some early things to think about… ☀️Save it, revisit it, and follow
if you want more real talk along the way. You don’t have to figure this all out on your own.

Let’s be real: going from clinician to mental health CEO isn’t for everyone — and that’s okay.

But if you’ve ever felt the pull to do your own thing… to build something that’s yours… to create more freedom, flexibility, and alignment in how you serve — private practice might be your next move.

Here’s the thing most people don’t talk about:
Being a skilled clinician doesn’t automatically prepare you for being a business owner 😏

That shift? It’s not just logistical — it’s deeply mental.

When you go into private practice, you’re not just the therapist anymore.
You’re also the:
• CEO
• Marketer
• Biller
• Admin
• Tech support
• Visionary
• Decision-maker
• Problem-solver
• And (sometimes) janitor

You’re not just building a business — you’re creating a life and practice that reflects your values, your worth, and your vision.

So if you’re on the fence about going solo, ask yourself:
Am I ready to step into a new version of myself — one that leads with purpose and confidence?

The journey won’t be perfect. But it will be yours.
And that alone can make it powerful!!☀️
