Offer your words. Offer your truth. Offer your beauty. Offer your raw ache and your tender heart and your wild howl. Offer you. Just as you are. I promise someone is listening. I promise it makes a difference. I promise, little by little the path will appear. Even if...
She woke one morning and thought to herself that if the people who loved her thought her heart was fierce and strong (and they were generally known to be wise about such things) she should probably start believing this herself. So she did. And wouldn’t you know...
Wherever you are today. Whatever you were supposed to get done or wherever you are heading, know that a sweet spot exists for you too. Between fierce commitment and tender grace. Between hard push and liquid surrender. We can be soft and gracious with ourselves and...
You can do the scary thing. The thing you’ve wanted to do for so long. The thing you’ve avoided with all your might. You may find yourself shaking with adrenaline and power and the ache that lies right beneath the surface. You can do it. It might not...
Pause.It takes time to unwind. To lose the edge you’ve built up. To unfurl and relax. Breathe all the way down deep. Intensity isn’t called for now. Now it is time for softness. For expansion. Be patient. Give it time. You’ve been folded so very...

Life is intense and magical. It is a steal the breath from your lungs, bring you to your knees roller coaster ride. It demands reverence and humility and penance and gratitude shouted loud from mountaintops. It will have you wailing at gods you don’t believe in,...
Yes, she has known great love. The kind of love that can only be held with a sort of reverence and awe, for the way that it changed everything about her notions of what was or ever could be. So deep that she names all else worthy, just to have brought her there. And...
Perhaps we don’t need to worry so much about the spaces in between. The vastness of the desert we wander through, searching for the way home. Perhaps that time is vital in ways we will never understand. And perhaps we can find space to accept that the journey...
fierce and untamable lightThere will always be days when the ground is unsteady beneath your feet.But look at the sun as it rises in the sky. Let its fierce and untamable light remind you of the wonder yet to come.
This is where redemption lives. In the spaces where we come together, and in the quiet moments where it all comes apart. In the wild center of this world. In the wild center of our imperfect selves. Right here, in the vastly complex and utterly priceless wonder that...
Keep your head up. Keep your gaze steady. Your heart is bruised but still beating. Your doubts are strong but not winning. Your demons are loud but not rising above your knowing. Keep breathing as deep as you are able. Hold tight to your intuition. You are still in...
Here’s the crazy thing about light. It can be flat and dull, casting nothing into shadow and throwing little into relief. Everything is illuminated exactly the same; nothing to entice or call you forward. Any photographer knows that you can take a million...
Blessed be this worthy sadness. Blessed be this knowing love. Blessed be the finding home. Blessed be the kitchen slow dance. Blessed be the magical sunset. Blessed be the strong arms. Blessed be the true north. Blessed be the unmet hope. Blessed be the unwavering...
When you are actively manifesting your own joy, it pays to be intentional and persistent, to chase it with dogged stubbornness, to insist on the cultivation of your desired experiences with all that you have.
Magic isn’t about make-believe, after all. It’s just about suspending your own disbelief sufficiently to see the wonder that exists inside each and every moment of reality.
You don’t have to know the right first step. You just have to be ready and willing to walk into the unknowing with all of your hope and all of your fear and all of your doubt and all of your bravery.
Damn the consequences. Even the worst of what you can imagine will figure itself out eventually. And there you will be at the end — standing tall in the midst of it all. You. Beautiful, beautiful you. You take my breath away.
Some days the world feels too hard and heavy, too much violence, too much pain, too much, too much, too much, and no way to make any of it make sense. Some days the people we love the most are enduring deep horror and loss and fear and trauma and pain and...
Trust in the wisdom of your undecided heart. Trust in your unknowing, love. Have faith in the space of indecision. There is wisdom here, just as there is when you are bold and steady and sure. Take your time here. Be gentle. Coax out your truth, and be willing to wait...
Yes, being human is a staggering act of near-impossible bravery. But you were born to be the hero of your own story. And true heroes do not try to do it alone. Lean all the way in. I promise, I’ll catch you if you fall. Or you’ll catch me. Either way – there are...
The less I know – the more the world opens up, wide and waiting. This is how I have come to understand the taste of freedom. I am filled with resistance. But still, I am here. One letter on this screen at a time, I am here. Neck aching and back bent and eyes burning,...
Nothing big ever happens, good or bad, unless the floor falls out first. Let your longing wind you down through that spiral. And know that falling can be the most wickedly awesome and totally safe thing you’ve ever done. Down, down, down, because when you hit that...
I hope that I get to see you love what you are. To know yourself as gift and worth and truth. That you see what a huge thing it is to have the courage to break your own heart. That you have chosen wholeness — even when it has shattered you. And that you will one day...
To live this life. To live it with wholeness and gratitude and trust. In the pain and the glory. In the mess and the grace. In the sacred and the desperation. This is the stuff of which real superheroes are born.
Go now, and live. Experience. Dream. Risk. Close your eyes and jump. Enjoy the freefall. Choose exhilaration over comfort. Choose magic over predictability. Choose potential over safety. Wake up to the magic of everyday life. Make friends with your intuition. Trust...
We are in this together. None of us truly walk in isolation, even when we cannot sense the presence of another for miles upon miles. Even in the worst of our desolation. Even during our coldest 3am breakdown. Even when we shut out the world and spin in circles until...
Butterflies are beautiful, but the process of emerging from the chrysalis and spreading your wings can hurt like fucking hell. But still, you will survive the transformation (over and over again) and you will fly. Remember this when it hurts the most. This is the...
