vulnerable.
Keeley was not the first story I told about love. I had a Grandma. In the busy in-and-out of life as a teenager/early 20’s, coming home for holiday and summer breaks, I would often tell this Grandma when she was around, ‘I love you’. She would respond, ‘no you don’t’.

love.
It was exactly what I needed to grasp the broad view of not only what it meant to be a school mental health provider, but what it meant to trust love.

keeley.
Today is the first day of February. A typically atypical sunny, warm day in Denver. In February, it becomes easier to digest the pink and red hearts that show up after the new year. The wildly creative theme of love was chosen for the February online course…release date…wait for it…February 14. As I create the […]

STuFfeD.
When I used to catch myself wildly spinning on the inside, I would act as if I was my own defibrillator to disrupt the crazy. I’d get my attention by stating my name loudly and firmly: Sally.

If the storyline or theme is one of lack or limitation, you have an opportunity […]

Being curious about developing the skill of self-awareness can support a […]

The frame. I was facilitating a lesson in a classroom the other day. I had my slides for the presentation projected onto the teacher’s smartboard. My slides showed up on the smartboard by using the split screen. The teacher held down my laptop ‘mouse’ and literally slid (with a finger on the screen) the slide […]

sensual.
This is not the first post titled ‘sensual’ that I have written. I don’t think I’ve posted any…yet. The journey of my last 7 or 8 years toward (what I now call) well-being has three main elements that I would consider to be the biggest game changers – both personally and professionally. Self-awareness. Sensations. Storytelling. […]

more.
It’s interesting to wonder about the idea of what it means to be satisfied and the desire for more. The newsflash here is that ‘we’ would not have life if we did not desire for more. At Orange Theory Fitness (which just happens to be across the street from me AND has 5am classes…win…win) – […]
