Be Kind To Yourself
One deeply impactful commonality is an experience that harsh self-criticism somehow leads to growth and self-improvement.

The ultimate goal is to live a happy life. Clients frequently talk with me about a deep struggle in not feeling happy or that they are not happy about some or many of the things in their lives. This has me thinking about “happy” and if it is something that we should really be chasing.
“Maybe I am just oversensitive”. I have heard this over and over through the years and I think there is something in this thought that is worth thinking about.
Take a few breaths before you start! Be specific and make your goals small and achievable, while keeping in mind the reasons “why” you want to accomplish the goal. It will give you a much better chance of making it happen. Little changes made daily or weekly, can lead up to big changes over the course of the year.
I believe that we can have it all, we just can’t have it all at once. When we have balance in my lives and learn how to set boundaries and prioritize, everyone in the family is healthier and happier. Your family deserves the best version of you and the only way that’s possible is by making yourself a priority.
Do you ever have an idea or want to set a goal for yourself that you later give up on because someone tells you it isn’t achievable?
