Life a leaf, let it fall away

IT'S BEEN A MINUTE! 

​Well... this is the first time, in over three years, that I let three months pass between monthly newsletters! We'll call this the quarterly update - haha. 

A little about what I've been up to - TRUTH. 

I am so grateful for where this life has taken me and it also became apparent that I needed to be honest with myself. This summer demanded extra attention on myself, my sweet little boys, my {incredibly} supportive husband and my family, so I listened and did just that. I have worked to consistently reconnect to my own inner truth and from there, to determine what's next. 

It hasn't always been super clear, in fact it's been quite unsettling and frustrating at times, but it's been my personal commitment to myself. Where do I need to go next? While I can't predict the future, it's become apparent that it's time to reset, to shed some weight and to connect to the things that do feel true. The weight I speak of is the weight of the things that don't feel connected to my truth. To release the things that are no longer in service of my needs and to let go of the things I'm holding *so tightly* onto. Just as trees naturally shed the weight of their leaves each year, this season is that of letting go. F A L L

And may I note, this practice of letting go is a necessary step towards growth. I truly believe that we, as humans, all strive to be better versions of ourselves and that we each deeply desire to be our best. With that, we need to let go of things that keep us comfortable and stagnant to do just that. Step by step - day by day ;) It's a beautiful thing! 

There's a great quote from Oprah (because you know I just adore her) that I'll leave you with and ask you to consider...

Don’t hold anything too tightly
Just wish for it
Want it
Let it come from the intention of real truth for you
And then let it go
- Oprah

What do you have the space and willingness to leave behind?
