Energy is so precious, and it is what helps me make most decisions. Know yourself. Know when you are depleted. Know when you need filling. Nobody knows this but you.
This is a truly individual thing. We are all different.
Give yourself permission. Be proud of yourself for knowing and being that aware.
Stop explaining. Retelling the story. Still talking about the drama. Solve it. Accept it. Endure it. Learn from it. Grow from it.
This week I read this quote and it resonated…
"Don't throw good energy at a negative situation. Let it go." - Rachel Macy Stafford’s sister, Rebecca
Challenge: Pay attention to where your energy goes this week.
Resources: Prayer. Rest. Boundaries. Movement. -

Life will constantly give us problems. We grow when we problem solve, and not just react. It isn’t easy, but with practice, we get better. One step at a time. One week at a time. One day at a time.

Many of us are. We have too much coming at us every day.
Rest, breaks, relaxing, slowing down, are all ok. They are not lazy.
Not responding immediately. Not scrolling to see what is happening with everyone else is ok.Saying no is ok.
It seems the world has made us think that whatever we have, we do, or we are is never enough.
I am here to tell you that you are already enough. Everything else is extra. -
My experience has shown me over and over again.
Joy comes from the simple things.
Stop chasing the worldly distractions, and embrace what is right in front of you. God. The day. Your home. Your family. Yourself. The present. Nature. Outside. Being able to drive your kids somewhere. Being able to parent your kids through hard times. Navigating their ups and downs. You were given that role. It is a blessing.
If you don’t believe me…back off of social media. Say no to anything that doesn’t shout hell yeah this week. Smell the flowers. Sit in the sunshine. Walk through the grass. Take a deep breath. Call your mom. Or dad, if you can. Hug your family.
The only way to true JOY is through God and living in the present. Embracing what you have.
Challenge: Seek out JOY and simple God given blessings this week

An extremely relatable analogy was shared with me this week, and I think you can relate as well. How do you respond when life gets hard? What spills out of your heart and mouth? I received this in perfect timing, as I was feeling that deep mom exhaustion. I was frustrated with most of what got in my way. I realized after reading the analogy, that I was not filling my cup with the best choices. I was off track, and I needed to get back on immediately.
Challenge: Start filling your cup and taking care of yourself right now.

After spending nearly 27 years in the pharmaceutical industry learning about traditional medicine, Stacey Millhorn faced her own battle with chronic pain, including migraines and muscle/joint pain. Despite being prescribed various medications and undergoing physical therapy, she struggled with side effects and sought alternatives.
Her search led her to Pilates, but it was discovering infrared sauna and float therapy at Pure Sweat Studios in Nashville that truly transformed her health. Regular sessions helped ease her pain, improve her sleep, and boost her mood. After moving to Utah and unable to find a similar experience, Stacey seized the opportunity to bring the Pure Sweat Studios franchise to Utah. The first location opened in Park City in May 2023, followed by South Jordan in November 2023.

The world will constantly rush you, pressure you, and pull you from God and calm in your life and day. You have to choose to step away from the crazy and create some space in your day. This will help bring you closer to God, bring calm in your heart, and add peace to your day. We will always have challenges and hard days, but when we have God, we can still be calm in our heart and know that we will be ok.
Takeaway: Regardless of what is going on in your life, you can have calm in your heart.
Challenge: Be intentional this week about creating space in your day so that you can have more peace in your heart.

When we focus on the message, and not ourselves, it is a whole different ball game. The message drives you, inspires you, and empowers you. When we make it about us…fear, insecurity, and doubt creep in. Listen to your heart and soul, and bring your message to the world. We need to hear it.
Takeaway: If you have a message to share, share it. You are the vessel to bring your message to the world, and we need to hear it.
Challenge: Challenge yourself this week to slow down and listen to what your heart and soul is trying to tell you to share. -
