After a fun-filled evening at the rehearsal dinner, where stories were shared and laughter was abundant, we retreated to my mom's cozy sitting room. The air was filled with excitement and a sense of reunion, as it was the first time in years that we were all together under one roof. The warmth of my mom's sitting room wrapped around us, setting the perfect stage for an evening of heartfelt connection.
Perhaps the most significant aspect of a glow-up is its emphasis on self-love and acceptance. It's about recognizing your worth and celebrating your unique qualities and strengths. In a world that often tries to dictate our worth based on external standards, a glow-up is a powerful reminder that true beauty comes from embracing your authenticity and owning your story.
Have you ever found yourself in the midst of an unexpected adventure? Recently, during an on and off stormy day, my daughter, a friend and I were attending a tented outdoor music concert. But when the tornado sirens blared, our plans took an unexpected turn. Instead of seeking shelter in a mundane location, we were led into an underground speakeasy, a hidden gem my daughter and I wanted to explore but the timing never worked out.
Reinvention is about courage, the courage to question, to change, and to step into new territories without the fear of age holding you back. Age can often feel like a limit imposed by society, a marker that supposedly dictates what can or cannot be done. Each phase of life offers unique insights and experiences that can fuel your transformation in powerful ways.
The last time I witnessed the Northern Lights was during a memorable trip to Iceland.

I thought that might be my last dance with the auroras, yet here they were again, unexpectedly gracing my view.
In high-stress scenarios, people typically react in one of four ways: fight, flight, freeze, or fawn. My daughter fought through the adversity, immediately working to replace the tire. I found myself frozen, unsure and frightened by the speeding traffic and danger. Meanwhile, over the phone, my son, Andrew, took on a protective role from afar, his urgent shouts over the noise, ensuring we remained as safe as possible under the circumstances.
From her earliest days, I aimed to strike a delicate balance as a parent, providing enough guidance to keep her safe while granting her the freedom to explore life's joys. Like many mother-daughter duos, we had our share of tumultuous times. There were moments she felt constrained, comparing her freedoms to those of her friends, while I stood firm, governed by a fierce desire to protect and nurture.
In 2016, a unique constellation was formed, not of stars, but of passionate coaches who came together under a single unifying banner, Sweet 16. This wasn’t just a random gathering of professionals, but a heartfelt assembly of individuals committed to uplifting and supporting each other through the twisting paths of personal and professional growth.
In the heart of every woman burns a spark of self-love, waiting to be ignited. For too long, many of us have been accustomed to placing ourselves last, nurturing everyone around us while neglecting our own needs. If you're on the brink of your self-love journey, feeling foreign to the concept of prioritizing your well-being, you're not alone.
Your true north is more than just a direction; it’s a journey towards understanding who you truly are, what you value, and what brings you joy and fulfillment. It’s about identifying your core beliefs and aligning your actions with them, leading to a life that feels genuine and rewarding.
