July is not about pushing through.
It’s about creating with what’s real.

Grief is still here.
So is joy.
So is the desire to make something meaningful.

This month, I’m choosing embodied wholeness—
Letting grief and creativity walk together.
Letting rest and rhythm lead. #LivingIn3DPower #JulyGoals

This is spot on. I loved my time at UVA, I loved my time in Cville, I love my friends from that time, but it feels like I need to stop acting like it loves me back. It's not what it was supposed to be or what I thought it was.

Ryan had not fought Trump on DEI and other matters. His forced ouster proves that no capitulation is enough.

Feel! We must feel and allow it to fuel us to create the world we deserve to inhabit, rooted in Love. Let your rage, sadness, despair unfold into something powerful to disrupt the violence in this world. Be a freedom dreamer. Be the great alchemist and create!

June is for rooted expansion.
Not more hustle, but more truth.
Not bigger reach, but deeper roots.
Let this month stretch you without unraveling you.

Emma never ceases to amaze me. I sometimes wonder how less arduous my path may have been if I had seen myself fully like she does.

This was collective healing. A reminder that leadership doesn’t begin when you’re older. It begins when you’re witnessed.

We talked about courage.
About identity.
About being seen in a world that asks girls to shrink.
Emma said:

“If you have an idea, do it. And if you have more, do it.”
She wasn’t performing.
She was becoming.
And the room met her with thunder. #livingin3dpower #substacknewsletter #youthleadership

Emma and I recorded our 1st #livepodcast keynote this week. She’s 10. The room filled with 200+ 7th-grade girls that clapped for every truth she spoke. They reminded us what real affirmation sounds like. What happened next changed both of us. #livingin3dpower #substacknewsletter #youthleadership

Those girls deserve so much praise. To witness girls supporting girls was transformative! Our kids are leading and loving the way forward!

“What if I get fired?” Emma shrugged: “Then find a job that listens to you and you like.”

She said what so many of us need to hear when fear keeps us stuck.

This weekend, I’m inviting you to do the same:
• Create a ritual just for you
• Write to your younger self
• Celebrate without needing a reason

Come back to the center.
You were never meant to be anywhere else.

What’s one way you’ll center yourself this weekend?
