The Persecution Wound: A fear of being seen and stepping into our power, healed through the safety of sisterhood. 2. The Sisterhood Wound: A struggle to...

Hi dear one, We’ve all been there—scrolling through social media, comparing our lives to someone else’s highlight reel. Or getting stuck in the cycle of complaining or criticizing. These “cancers of the mind,” as Jay Shetty calls them, create so much unnecessary suffering. But here’s the good news: We can choose differently. My dear friend Jeanie Iberlin shared her 3 C’s for joy: compassion, connection, and calmness. • Instead of...

Have you ever found yourself waiting for the “perfect” time? The perfect weight, the perfect moment, the perfect conditions to finally go after what you desire? In this episode, I share a deeply personal experience about overcoming perfectionism and stepping into trust. After years of waiting for the “right” moment, I finally said yes to an opportunity that wasn’t ideal—at least not in my mind. I didn’t feel my best. I wasn’t fully prepared. And yet, when I followed my intuition instead of my inner critic, everything aligned perfectly. Join me as we dive into: ✨...

Hi friend, Over the holidays, I fell into a familiar trap. My calendar was bursting with events and to-dos, and I was running myself ragged. Eventually, I got sick, angry, and exhausted. I didn’t like who I was becoming. But then, I remembered a tool I write about in my book: Notice. Pause. Choose again. It’s so simple yet so powerful. I noticed I was out of alignment, paused to reset, and chose a new direction—saying no to events, putting work aside, and being present with my kids. Slowly, things shifted, and I felt the connection I had been longing for. Here’s the...

Recently, I was planning my dream retreat in Italy when something felt…off. My mind was buzzing with excitement, but my heart kept whispering: Conserve your energy. Focus on what you came here to do. It wasn’t easy to let go of the planning and ideas swirling in my head. It was like a devil on one shoulder and an angel on the next. I kept second guessing my inner wisdom and answers. Those old failiar sabotaging patterns are hard to beat, aren't they?! But when I paused and connected with my higher self (for the fourth time), the answer became crystal clear: My soul’s calling right...

The new year often comes with a rush of goals and to-dos. But what if we paused instead? What if, like Mother Earth in winter, we slowed down, rested, and renewed? Recently, I’ve been leaning into this wisdom, asking myself: How do I want to feel this year? It’s such a simple shift, but it’s helped me let go of the hustle and connect with what truly matters. So, let me ask you: How do YOU want to feel this year? Take a deep breath, pause, and let your heart answer. LISTEN IN on the latest episode of Mindful Pause Podcast where we’ll explore the power of...

info_outlineUsually when we’re happy, it’s because we received what we wanted.
We’re grateful AFTER something has happened to us.
But doing it this way (with cause then effect) is fleeting because it keeps us chasing the next thing that promises to bring us the elevated feeling we want to feel.
What would happen if instead of waiting
to feel joy when something good happens to us,
we consciously choose to feel joy now
despite what we’re experiencing?
Instead of cause and effect,
we choose to affect the cause.
This isn’t about an affirmation of an attitude of gratitude.
It’s really about doing the hard mindful work to really embody gratitude and all of the other high emotions you want to feel now - no matter what.
Doing the active inner work helps us shift our perspective and energy.
When we change our energy, we change our life
On this week’s MINDFUL PAUSE PODCAST,
let’s change our perspective of the experience, to change our experience of it.
LISTEN HERE.
I hope the last 4 weeks of exploring SAT CHIT ANANDA helps you realize this is not an unattainable concept, but one where we can learn the knowledge, put it into action, and through consistent practice of being conscious, living in our truth and choose joy now, we begin to embody this wisdom.
