Procrastination is a symptom. Fear of failure is my limited belief that keeps me spinning and not stepping forward. Fear to just start and not have it perfect!

How much energy leaks into trying to be perfect? So what if.. we practice imperfection.
Taking Action over needing Perfection.
What would that look like?

Well..
Step1: I would create an offer to Nurses who are just feeling lost right now.
Step 2: I would give myself permission to not know it all or have it perfect.
Step 3: I would believe in my heart that it is not what I do, but actually the space I create that will help support those I wish to serve

When can I do this?
Right now I guess.

What's stopping me? - tech uncertainty
My own commitment to a schedule and time.

So commit to one ACTION
Create A peer support space- 1 hr virtual meeting

Stay tuned!

Changing my procrastination - into intentional action.

Follow along as I grow and start creating a
Peer support programming for healthcare workers.

Bridging evidence based integrative health approaches, with my "woo" ..

I'll push my own comfort zone, to be able to help prevent burnout and build resilience for us as care providers and nurses💕

I Am Under Construction Within

I am under construction.
Under construction on the inside.
Reviewing paths, adjusting structures, tearing down the walls that no longer serve me.

Some days everything feels like a mess
dust everywhere, feelings out of place,
too much silence inside.
But even the best reconstruction begins like this:
a little chaos before clarity.

I am learning to reinforce what sustains me,
to replace what weakens me,
to bring light into the spaces I used to hide,
to repaint what time had faded.

It isn’t easy.
But it is beautiful.
Because every construction speaks of hope.
And mine speaks of me:
of who I am becoming,
of who I am finally allowing myself to be.

I remain under construction
not to become perfect,
but to become true.
And every small step forward,
no matter how tiny,
is a brick of courage placed in the right spot.

The process is slow.
But the destination is beautiful.
And I keep going. Always.

Authenticity is a healing growth process. It is so aligned with me and my values. Don't BS me, be real, be vulnerable.. But.. Do I have to change from my AuthenticallyMic to be more professional and "branding" properly.. with Grounded Roots Integrative Health (Holistic Nurse Coaching & Consulting)?.. send me your thoughts! This is all new to me!

What do you vision for your year?

12/20/2025

I'm redefining what self care truly means to me. And.. it's not about a yoga class, or a bath.. it is about intention. Learning to protect my energy, speak my truth and go for what I want.

I was uncomfortable. Told I'm too much of a dreamer. And unhappy with my lack of presence for myself, my son & my friends.

Self care to me now.. is learning how to ground myself. Is practicing being more present. Is being aware of when I reach for that beer out of habit or agitation, and maybe choosing differently. Self care is being true to myself, doing the hard inner work, and coming back to my breath when i catch myself in a overstimulated state.

In a world with technology and always being connected and available.. we are severely "disconnected".

Doing all the "self-care" things not working? Maybe, that's not the problem.. maybe you are like me and became so disconnected from who I truly am. "DOING" alot.. but not just Being"..
As I've heard.. we have become human-doers, instead of human beings.. and then wonder why we feel like we are in a race and can't catch up.

I'm launching a coaching program in the new year, and want to help you get unstuck. Off the hamster wheel of procrastination, exhaustion and lack of clarity, to creating a plan to start living more in alignment with your purpose and values. It is uncomfortable, it is raw, it is growth.. but if you feel burntout, feel disconnected and out of balance.. the typical known "self-care" alone, will only go so far.
You have been doing it. Trying it. And even after the day off, the yoga class, the massage..
You feel more relaxed.. but autopilot kicks back in.. you still feel drained, disconnect and find it difficult to be truly present in what you do.

If you are ready to make a true shift.. To make a commitment to reconnection in 2026, then reach out or stay tuned!
What you have been doing, hasn't been working.. and there is no shame or failure in that. Sometimes we just need to try something different. We need to commit. We need to be willing to Go ALL in for ourselves, not just surface level self-care, but transformational shifts that help overcome the stories and blocks that are really holding you back.

2026 doesn't have to feel the same as 2025 if you don't want it to.

I'd love to chat to see if my coaching might be a good fit!

What questions are you asking yourself! What Quest are you on?

Self care = a Standard of Practice. For everyone. You can't care from an empty cup.

12/06/2025

In my journey as a caregiver, I've learned that our well-being truly fuels our ability to care for others. Taking a moment to breathe and embrace mindfulness isn't just a luxury; it’s essential. In our fast-paced environment, remember that pausing to reconnect with ourselves can restore our focus and energy. 🌿 How do you take care of your well-being amidst the daily chaos? I’d love to hear your tips or how this resonates with your experiences in the comments!

🦋 "Recharge your soul, nurses-you can't pour from an empty cup." 🦋

💖 Hey, amazing Nurses and Caregivers! We totally get it-your days are nonstop, and it's easy to forget about YOU. Take a moment today to breathe deeply and honor your own well-being.

Creating a personal wellness checklist can really help restore your balance. Whether it's a quick meditation, a yummy snack, or jotting down what you’re grateful for, these small moments can rejuvenate your spirit and supercharge your day.

Remember, by putting yourself first, you’re also stepping up the care you give to others. 💪✨
