Let the cooler weather find my heart.
The spring, summer, is quite a hectic time for people in their lives, but then it comes to autumn, and to winter, and you can’t but help think back to the year that was, and then hopefully looking forward to the year that is approaching. Enya

Good Trouble. Necessary trouble.
Be bold. Be courageous, stand up, speak up, speak out and find a way to create the beloved community. The beloved world. A world of peace world that recognise the dignity of all humankind. Never become bitter, never become hostile, never hate. Rep. John Lewis

As we grieve together, I hope you find space and moments that remind you what you are fighting for. How do we lean in to community practices while supportive narratives that support our highest good?

Week Eight: “Holding on will not make something come back. In my experience, it actually pushes it farther away. You cannot go back and undo what’s done, my friends. You can only move forward. And if your deepest compulsions and instincts tell you that you’re meant to be with that person or doing that thing, you should let go and move forth and see how life takes you there. Clearly, things aren’t going according to your desired plan already, so why not throw caution to the wind and see where you end up.” Brianna Wiest

When working with athletes in any capacity, as counselors, we must balance how weight and body image are perceived in sports. We have our own internalized ideas and must work on our ideas so we do not pass those ideas on to our clients.

My wealth is measured in the people who love me whole.
“Because at the end of the day, the right people fight for you. The right people show up. The right people care, not only when life is convenient, but when it is difficult and messy and it aches all over.” Bianca Sparacino, A Gentle Reminder

Right as you settle in to the stillness of your soul, does a dog come and sit with you? Something special happens when I meet myself with silence, a dog appears as if they are enjoying the silence too.

Meeting neighborhood dogs for the first time, letting go of how others perceive my love, resting without shame or guilt, books with coffee, Audre Lorde, poems that bring voice to your pain, and sunsets that remind you of everything you’ve forgotten.

When times feel unimaginable as professors we have an opportunity to meet our students and ourselves with grace. I hope you feel courageous enough to step into your vulnerability and remind yourself why this work is only as strong as the foundation of care our community is built on.

They said the love I have was too much. They implied I was too much. So I met myself on the ice where no one questions why I yearn for more....

To return to love, to get the love we always wanted but never had, to have the love we want but are not prepared to give, we seek romantic relationships. We believe these relationships, more than any other, will rescue and redeem us. True love does have the power to redeem but only if we are ready for redemption. Love saves us only if we want to be saved.

Life lately….
Office sunrises, ice skates, snacks, journaling, tarot, and live painting.. a week of finding what brings me joy.
