Moving closer to the halfway point of my Dog Tag Fellowship has given me a chance to reflect on how much this journey is teaching me—personally, professionally, and as the founder of The Inner Sparkle Effect.

I am learning that I do not need to have everything figured out before taking the next step. I am learning to trust myself, trust the process, ask for help, accept feedback, and lean on the people around me who genuinely want to see me succeed.

Every day looks different. Some days I feel confident and productive, while other days remind me to slow down, regroup, and keep going. This fellowship has stretched me outside of my comfort zone and challenged me to believe in myself. I am grateful for that growth, even when I may not feel grateful for it in the moment.

Although I have had my business for several years, grief, loss, caregiving, and challenges involving loved ones have sometimes pulled my attention away from growing it. This fellowship is helping me return to The Inner Sparkle Effect with a new perspective.

I am learning how to build the business behind the service to better understand who I serve, the value I provide, the strategy behind my vision, and what it takes to create something sustainable for the future.

Personally, I am learning to believe that I am worthy of the opportunities in front of me. Professionally, I am becoming more intentional about where The Inner Sparkle Effect is going and the impact I want it to have.

Most importantly, I am learning not to give up, not on my business, my purpose, or myself. ✨

I’m exploring future ways to support women who are experiencing stress, overwhelm, burnout, or compassion fatigue.

Which would you be more interested in: a supportive signature wellness program or an immersive wellness retreat—and why?

Your feedback will help me understand what kind of experience would feel most meaningful and supportive. This is simply research; nothing is being offered for purchase yet.

Today, we honor fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, father figures, and all those honoring the memory of a father in heaven. 💜

Father's Day can bring many emotions, gratitude, love, celebration, remembrance, and reflection.

This tribute holds a special place in my heart. My father and grandfather lovingly called me "Sunshine," which is why you'll find a sunflower woven into this design as a quiet tribute to their memory.

Whether you're celebrating with your father today, honoring a father figure, or carrying the memory of a loved one in your heart, may you feel surrounded by love, gratitude, and cherished memories.

Happy Father's Day. 🌻✨🦋

Today was a gentle reminder that even Reiki practitioners need to pause and listen to their bodies too. 💜✨

When I woke up this morning, I somewhat knew I wasn’t feeling my best, but like many women, caregivers, and healers, I thought I could push through the day.

I still came in for my first client, hoping I would start feeling better. We sat together and chatted for a little while, but I could tell my body was not improving, especially after having my protein shake and realizing I still felt off. In that moment, I knew I needed to truly listen inward.

With so much grace and understanding, my client and I decided it was best to reschedule and go our separate ways for the day. I’m incredibly grateful for her kindness and compassion.

After that, I reached out to my remaining clients to reschedule, and thankfully they were all so understanding and supportive.

Sometimes the most healing thing we can do is stop trying to “push through” and instead honor what our body is asking for. Your body whispers before it screams, honor it. 🌿

Today, I chose rest, hydration, and grace.

How does this show up in your own life? Do you listen to your body when it asks you to slow down, or do you tend to push through until you have no choice but to stop?
