🌊🎉 The Best Party of the Year Is Almost Here! 🎉🌊

Some events are fun.

Some events make a difference.

The Baja Bash does both.

On June 13th, friends, conservation leaders, ocean lovers, chefs, artists, and community supporters will gather overlooking the beautiful Solana Beach coastline for an unforgettable evening of incredible food, fine wine, craft cocktails, live music, auctions, and purpose. The annual Baja Bash supports the important conservation work of WILDCOAST, helping protect our oceans, coastlines, wildlife, mangroves, coral reefs, sea turtles, and the wild places we love throughout California and Baja.

This isn’t just another fundraiser.

It’s a celebration of community, connection, and our shared responsibility to leave future generations a healthier planet.

If you’re looking for an evening filled with great people, amazing food, breathtaking views, and a meaningful cause, I hope you’ll join us.

🌎 Protect the coast.
🐋 Protect wildlife.
🌊 Protect our future.

See you at the Baja Bash!

What if your biggest limitation isn’t reality... it’s an old assumption?

Many childhood assumptions become adult beliefs:
“I’ll be rejected.”
“I don’t matter.”
“I’m not good enough.”

Healing begins when we replace judgment with curiosity.

❤️ Drop a heart if you’re learning to challenge old assumptions.

Number 3 Agreement: Stop Making Assumptions. When in doubt, LET GO. By the way, you could never let go too much! What if your biggest limitation isn’t reality...

It’s an old assumption?

Many childhood assumptions become adult beliefs:

“I’ll be rejected.”

“I don’t matter.”

“I’m not good enough.”

The problem?

Most of us never stop to question them.

The ACE Study taught us that early experiences shape how we see ourselves and the world.

Healing begins when we replace judgment with curiosity.

Ask yourself:

What assumption about me might no longer be true?

Drop a ❤️ if you’re learning to challenge old assumptions.

🌊 What if your symptoms aren’t telling you what’s wrong with you...
But what happened to you?
For more than 30 years, I’ ok ve worked with Dr. Vincent Felitti, co-founder of the ACE Study.
One lesson stands out:
Many symptoms aren’t signs of weakness.
They’re signs of survival.
✨ Anxiety.
✨ Chronic stress.
✨ Emotional overwhelm.
✨ Unhealthy habits.
Often these began as ways to adapt to difficult experiences.
That’s why don Miguel Ruiz’s Second Agreement is so powerful:
“Don’t Take Anything Personally.”
Your symptoms are not your identity.
They may simply be clues pointing toward deeper understanding and healing.
🌱 Get curious instead of critical.

Don’t take your symptoms personally.

What if chronic symptoms are not proof that something is wrong with you?

What if they are learned stress-related responses from experiences that were never fully resolved?

For 30+ years, I’ve worked alongside Dr. Vincent Felitti, co-founder of the CDC–Kaiser ACE Study, studying how unresolved adverse life experiences can shape health, emotions, behavior, and daily life.

The ACE Study helped shift the question from:

“What’s wrong with you?”

to:

“What happened to you?”

don Miguel Ruiz’s Second Agreement says:

Don’t Take Anything Personally.

That wisdom applies to healing, too.

Your symptoms are not your identity.
They are not a verdict on your worth.
They may be clues pointing toward the root cause.

Healing begins when we stop blaming ourselves and start understanding the story behind the symptoms.

Be Impeccable with Your Word

Most wellness programs tell employees to “think positive.
 
But what if the inner critic isn’t a bad habit — it’s a survival response?
 
The ACE Study (CDC–Kaiser, one of the largest public health studies ever conducted) found that over 60% of adults experienced at least one Adverse Childhood Experience before age 18.
 
Children who grew up in unpredictable, unsafe, or emotionally neglectful environments didn’t develop self-doubt randomly. Their brains were wired to self-monitor as protection.
 
don Miguel Ruiz called this the “domestic agreement” — the subconscious rules we learned in childhood that govern our adult behavior.
 
When we reimagine his First Agreement — Be Impeccable with Your Word — through the ACE lens, it becomes something deeper:
 
❤️Speak to yourself the way you would speak to a child you love — especially the child you once were.
 
This isn’t soft. It’s science. Self-compassion correlates directly with reduced cortisol, improved immune function, and better workplace performance.
 
The question for HR and benefits leaders: Are your wellness programs treating symptoms? Or are they helping your people understand where those symptoms came from?
 
Root-cause healing changes everything.

What if your symptoms were never the problem — but the solution?

This Mental Health Awareness Month, I want to close with the truth that reshaped 30+ years of my clinical work — and the heart of the ACE Study, which I developed treatment solutions for alongside Dr. Vincent Felitti of Kaiser Permanente:

Anxiety. Chronic pain. Emotional eating. Exhaustion. Fibromyalgia. IBS.

These aren’t signs that something is wrong with you.

They’re signs your body survived something overwhelming — and adapted brilliantly.

The pain is real. The fatigue is real. And it often began long before you had words for it.

Healing doesn’t start by fighting your symptoms.

It starts by asking: What has my body been trying to tell me?

That’s the question the enlightn™ app was built around — guiding you gently from surviving to thriving.

Drop your answer in the comments. You are not alone. 💙

Your symptoms were never the problem. 💙
 
They were your protection.
 
Anxiety. Chronic pain. Emotional eating. Exhaustion.
 
These aren’t signs that something is wrong with you.

They’re signs your body survived something overwhelming.
 
The ACE Study proved it. 30+ years of clinical work confirmed it.
 
Healing doesn’t start by fighting your symptoms.
It starts by asking:
 
👉 What is this protecting me from?
  with this truth.
 
Save this. Share it with someone who needs it.

You have 37 TRILLION reasons not to give up on yourself.

Every day:

✨ Your brain is adapting.

✨ Your body is healing.

✨ Your cells are working for you.

✨ New possibilities are being created.

Stress and unresolved ACEs aren’t dead ends.

They’re often bridges to:

➡️ Awareness

➡️ Growth

➡️ Healing

➡️ Freedom

You are not a problem to solve.

You are potential waiting to be discovered.

One of the most remarkable cases from my work with Dr. Vincent Felitti involved a physician whose stubborn hiccups stopped after just one mindbody healing session, even though medications hadn’t helped.

Three months later, he realized he had also stopped using asthma medications he’d relied on for more than ten years—something he had never even mentioned to me.

Seven years later, he still had no hiccups, no asthma symptoms, and normal pulmonary function.

Sometimes, when we get to the deeper roots of stress and adversity, healing can happen in ways we never expect.
