War crimes are not OK.
Bombing hospitals is not okay
Killing over 30,000 people is not okay.

I stand with the people of Palestine.

If that upsets you, feel free to unfollow me.

Let me ask you. If the hospital where I would be helping at during a crisis got bombed, would you speak out? Would you say it's a war crime?

For those that say yes but remain silent about Palestine, I don't believe you.

Aloha fellow Nurturers,

I have made the hard decision to pause my coaching and wellness practice. I also am taking a pause on all content creation and blogging.

I am fine, just needing a pause and to slow down in my life. To focus on receiving life and not always giving.

Mahalo for your care and understanding.

To celebrate the first day of month here is a light-hearted blog that I wrote. I have 4 more blogs lined up for this month and will post weekly. Not all are this "light" but it is the beginning of me embracing my love of writing and my love of my own Neurodivergent brain.

I am sharing the most recent blog I wrote for Bened Life PS128. It is about Holistic Nutrition and how it can support Neurodivergent brains and bodies. Check it out

Holistic health can revolutionize how neurodivergent (and neurotypical) people receive medical treatment, so they feel heard and get the complex care they need.

Whenever I eat Poi,
I feel so good.

It's full of potassium, aloha, mana and history.

Today during a visit I experienced some of the worst sensory overwhelm.

It caused nausea, pain, dizziness and stopped me mid sentence.

Being softly strong
(Neurodivergent Nurse Edition)

I can smile sweetly while saving a life
I can meltdown in my car because the lights were too loud.

I can empathize with people another nurse wouldn't recognize.

I can hold space as someone dies.

I can burnout today as my brain continues to barely survive.

Or, i can decide tomorrow, I will softly surrender.

For I have given it my all.

I can now nurse myself, with the same soft strength I gave to them.

No goals, no planners, no vision boards no high pressure stakes. Just living life knowing I am worthy.

I am not the center of my universe at all times but I am also allowing more self-prioritization this year.

What does that mean?
-deeper breaths
-pleasure
-playing
-stimming
-singing
-hula halau
-saying f**k no
-saying f**k yes!
-writing/painting/music....CREATING
-not comparing myself to any other human!

And so much more I can't fit in a post...

I am neurodivergent and chronically ill, but I am also sexy, vivacious and flirty.

Yes the world is still slowly imploding...nothing changed overnight. Still in this moment I know taking care of me will allow me to show up more for others.

Nurse siblings,

This one is for you.

Accessibility includes medicine as well.

If you are struggling to get your medicine please be kind to yourself.

Also think about calling in a different dose even if it's less strong something is better than nothing.

If you need ideas or support DM me.
