This season, we’re reminding care teams, clinicians, and community leaders:

Don’t forget the “self” in self-care.

Whether you’re hosting, helping, or healing—pause, reflect, and protect your peace.
You deserve it.



3 unique and easy tips for quick self care during holiday stress.

Micro-Meditation Moments

Take 60 seconds between tasks to close your eyes, inhale deeply, and exhale slowly. Visualize a calming image—like a flickering candle or falling leaves. These mini resets help regulate your nervous system and restore clarity.

Set a “Do Not Disturb” Ritual

Choose one hour each day to silence notifications and step away from screens. Use this time to stretch, sip something warm, or simply sit in quiet. Protecting this boundary can reduce overwhelm and improve sleep.

Gratitude Text Chain

Start a group text with 2–3 trusted people. Each day, share one thing you’re grateful for. This builds connection and shifts focus from stress to joy—without needing a full conversation.

John and I were invited to join Micala Gingrich-Gaylord at a fundraiser for Juniper Arts Academy, and I’ll admit, I knew nothing about the group. Just goes to show: sometimes all it takes is an invitation to move a heart.

Juniper Arts Academy is a nonprofit based here in Sedgwick County, dedicated to empowering youth in foster care and juvenile justice communities through trauma-informed fine arts education. Their programs bring music, visual arts, and creative workshops directly into residential facilities and underserved spaces, places where traditional arts education is often absent. They operate with a trust-based relational approach, creating safe environments where kids can express themselves, build resilience, and feel seen.

One stat hit me hard: 99% of the students they serve had little or no access to fine arts education before Juniper stepped in. That’s not just a gap, it’s a canyon. So, standing in a room filled with stories, artwork, and hope, I found myself committing to make a donation to help. No hesitation. These kids deserve it.

Here we go. Excited to be the moderator and MC for the 12th annual Kansas healthcare Ethics Conference. As a proud member of the planning committee, I’m honored to help bring this topic to our healthcare professionals.

Always fun to set up a makeshift studio in my kitchen and enjoy these fabulous topics live and in person.
