Thank you to everyone who applied to win the free Solo Recharge Weekend at Why Not Woodland Escape.

As I said, everyone deserves this time away. But alas, we could only choose one winner. This time. Perhaps there will be a next.

The winner shared this beautiful, cathartic, and powerful journal entry after their weekend stay. Hell yeah. Here's to knowing and owning your worth from this point forward because life's too damn short to live it any other way.

And the same goes for you, Facebook friend, if you relate.
"This is my goodbye.

Goodbye to the person I have become in the last year or so.

Goodbye to trying to prove that I’m worth having around.

Goodbye to putting everyone else in front of myself.

Goodbye to the places I stayed when I was not honored, valued, cherished, protected, and taken advantage of.

Goodbye to questioning my worth. Goodbye to wondering if someone thinks I’m not enough or too much.

Goodbye to caring if I’m not enough or too much.

Goodbye to fighting to keep a place in someone’s life that does not put in the effort to stay in mine.

Goodbye to walking on eggshells in hopes that I do not hurt or upset another. Goodbye to living small, to stay in their box.

Goodbye to worrying about whether I look too gay, too le***an, or not feminine enough.

Goodbye to over-functioning and over-performing.

Goodbye to keeping everyone else happy and comfortable with who I am.

Goodbye to the version of me who overthinks and overanalyzes every thought, every conversation, and interaction.

Goodbye. Goodbye.

This has all served a purpose. It is what I knew. It is how I knew how to survive since childhood.

I am no longer a child, and I no longer need to live this way.
Goodbye to this version of me.

Hello to becoming….

Questions to ask myself when I am doing for others:

Why am I doing it?

Do I have the time, money, and emotional bandwidth to do it without it being a detriment to myself?

Did they ask, or am I trying to anticipate their need?"

Happy Groundhog Day! And FREE Solo Recharge Weekend Application!

Do you love the movie (and day!) as much as me? I haven't done it in a minute but I used to throw super fun Groundhog Day gatherings complete with groundhog games 🙂

This movie is a strong metaphor for life and highlights one of my favorite philosophies:

What you focus on grows, where your energy flows, and what you find supporting evidence for in your life.

Bill Murray gets stuck repeating Groundhog Day and he hates it. He hates the people, the town, and his work. The worse his attitude gets, the longer each perpetual February 2nd drags on.

He finally decides to change his focus since he’s ‘stuck’ in February 2nd anyway. He chooses gratitude instead of complaints, takes care of his health instead of thinking ‘what’s the use’, and helps others not because he ‘has to’ but because his new attitude has opened up more space and energy in his life.

It transforms how he sees the people, town, himself, and his work.

By changing his focus, Bill finds more and more supporting evidence that his life is pretty great. This increases his energy and outcomes!

He becomes well-liked in the town, takes his job to the next level, and wins the girl. Bill’s biggest reward? He finally finds himself waking up to a glorious February 3rd!

Beautiful.

When you focus on your overwhelming to-do list, stressful job, having no time to take care of your health, or how you have to be so responsible for everything and everyone, you train your mind to find supporting evidence to back up those thoughts, flushing your energy down the toilet.

The very things you say you want for yourself -- health, ease, time, peace -- don't stand a chance because your focus is on the elements making you feel stuck and drained.

When you learn how to manage your mind, have a healthy relationship with yourself and your intuitive body, and be now and stress-resilient (the three pillars in my MindBodyNOW class), everything in your life that feels perpetually stuck in Groundhog Day begins to shift.

It’s like waking up to a bright and energy-filled February 3rd. Finally!

Speaking of bright and energy-filled, Why Not Woodland Escape is certainly that!

And we're giving away a free solo recharge weekend to someone who needs to get out of perhaps their own never-ending Groundhog Day!

The short reel below explains my back story and why this give back is so important to me. The application and all the details are also below.

If you choose to apply, good luck! Literally everyone is deserving of this weekend escape.

Who needs a solo recharge weekend in SE TN to escape from everything and everyone? For free.

Think moonlit hot tub where the stars are more intoxicating than the wine.

The only sounds you hear are leaves crunching underfoot, wind rustling the trees, or the pilated woodpecker's exotic call as she flies by.

A treetop paradise where lines are blurred between indoors and out.

If you need space and peace to reconnect with yourself and nature, fill out the quick form below.

And then stay tuned, you'll be the first to know about the details.
If a loved one comes to mind, please share this with them.

This solo weekend escape has heart for me. It's something I did fourteen years ago. It up-leveled my life, and I'm honored to pay it forward.

The $80 billion diet and beauty industry loves brainwashing you into thinking you don't know how to lose weight and keep it off.

That their solution is the key to your lasting habit change. And how their fix will make you feel confident and content with yourself and your body.

And to top it off, society reinforces your ‘not enough’ complex. Try harder. Use more control and discipline to make the outside fixes work. Find the time, do it all perfectly, and don’t mess up. Society makes you think you’re to blame when you fall off the fitness wagon.

Do you see how f’ed up this is?

You’re not broken. You’re enough. You do know how to take healthy care of your body and stick with your healthy habits.

The only thing missing? Better tools that help you work with your mind and body so that you approach healthy habit change in an easier and more lasting way.

Because yes, the outside fixes (gym memberships, juices, meal prep, workout videos, etc) work but I promise they work easier and you have lasting success with them when you learn how to work with your mind and up-level your self-relationship.

Ready to learn? Give me a 💪 in the comments and I'll get you signed up for the free 5-Day Healthy Habit Change Solution.

It starts next Monday, January 6th, with a live kick-off session that helps you uncover the habit change tactics you’re using now and why they’re not working.

And then each day you’ll receive a daily audio and small actionable right to your inbox that you practice.

You’ll also have unlimited email coaching and accountability from me to bring the tools to life in your own life. Highly encouraged and optional.

Share a 💪 in the comments and I'll sign you up.
