They say life will continue to teach you the same lesson over and over again until the lesson is learned. Like it’s some kind of punishment for being inept at learning. Almost like you’re being stupid by not learning it. Maybe that’s my trauma talking but here me out- I think I’m beginning to disagree…

DON’T Call Me Miss Cleo
Something I don’t share often (but probably should if I ever want it to actually BE anything) is that I have a small metaphysical business where I perform energy work and read tarot. The reason I don’t really talk about is honestly made up of 2 parts I realized over this last year- One part…
Letters She’ll Never Send VIII
I need to know there are moments for you too. The moments you miss me so much it’s unbearable. Your chest aches just a little and you think about the way I smile when you say something absurd. The moments where you realize we were barely strangers when we figured out that the air was…
Balance: An Act of Perfect Imbalance
They say life is all about finding balance. Work-life balance, love-life balance, just balance. What we fail to realize is that balance is in fact an act of perpetual imbalance. I found myself on the lower side of that this week, feeling the weight of everything around me sitting solely on my shoulders; the weight…
Itsy Bitsy Ipsy, Oops She’s Sorry?
It’s no secret that my relationship with my mother has been a rocky one. I can spend YEARS describing the trials and tribulations, the roller coaster ride, the *any metaphor you can think of* that has been our everyday for almost 30 years now. And maybe one day, in my wildest dreams where I’m an…
This Stop: (WR)e(CK)xpectation
In my last blog I spoke about meeting ourselves where we are in the present moment. To focus on our “right nows” and not “should bes”. Its funny however, when we realize just how difficult that actually is. People often refer to the phrase, “easier said then done” when speaking about taking action. Oh how…
29: An Ode to Socrates (or someone like him)
This is what 29 looks like. At least the grainy, Samsung Nook Tablet, just got off work with a book in my lap kind of version of it anyway. Just 2 days after my 29th birthday I’m sitting here on my couch in my newly moved into still unpacked apartment simply blown away that I…
New (misad)Ventures
So something pretty cool happened about a month ago. I was contacted by another blog site to come on as a content contributor. I am super stoked at this opportunity to broaden my reach and strengthen my skill as a writer & blogger. My Trending Stories (MTS) is sort of similar to Thought Catalog and…
Row 3, Space 2: Where Everything Will Fit
I’m sure there’s some statistic somewhere that says x% of people have worked in a retail environment at one point or another. Some do it for the summer in high school to support their latest iPhone addiction their parents finally made them pay for, others do it to get through college years and pay for their…
