Trust. That word scares the sh*t out of me. Being a teenager I think we are always in this battle with trust-can I trust a person or an experience? We ...

Interview With Synergist
I am really lucky to be surrounded by amazing people who do incredible things to contribute to this world. They stop at nothing to accomplish their goals. They see failure as learning lessons. They don’t wait for something to happen, they make it happen. Someone who is all these characteristics is my good friend, Jared […]
Letting Go. Letting Be. Being Me.
Perfect is probably my least favorite word in the English language. Because no one is ‘perfect’ and it’s a very false persona. I tend to get attached to doing everything perfectly. If I let myself go, I can easily enter a world where I must complete everything the way I think it should be done, […]
Is Falling Apart Really Falling Forward?
A few weeks ago it felt like my life completely fell apart. Someone I trusted proved to be not who I thought they were. I was left feeling really hurt. For days I went through my daily routine, trying to pretend I was okay, when I felt completely angry. I am one who loves certainty. […]
It’s YOUR Life. Are You Living It?
I live a life I truly love. It’s certainly not perfect, no life is. It has many up’s and down’s, but none the less, it is still a beautiful, abundant life. I feel life is always giving us assignments. Not like a school assignment, where you complete it and it’s over. These assignments are much […]
Letting My Light Shine
As the ASSET showcase nears, I’ve felt fear rise and then I feel the need to control that fear with physical things. So this week, with feeling very anxious, I’ve decided to dramatically flip my sleep schedule to getting up at 5am to workout. Now I denied that this was my way for self-control and […]
Emotions Vs. Agility
Agility. Yesterday I attended a talk called ‘Doers, Dreamers, and Dropouts’ hosted by E(nsitute). I sat in this discussion stuck on the word ‘agility’. I thought about it over and over again. I found fascination in my new ability to be agile. Growing up with anxiety, I seemed to be the opposite of agile. I […]
ASSET Showcase 3/9/13
I’ve been writing this blog post in my head for the past week, except it hasn’t actually made it onto the site until today! I want curse and scream at that storm Nemo, and I probably would’ve, but instead I am choosing a more loving approach. Thank god for Wayne Dyer’s meditations or you might […]
Food Relationships
Let’s be honest, sometimes we need to break-up with our food. Tell those Doritos: “It’s not you, it’s me.” For the longest time, I relied on food as a coping mechanism. I was flooded with happy emotions when I tasted those sweets. If I felt anxious, I turned to dairy products. The more anxious I […]
Prepping Stones
So I am in the shower today trying to quiet my oh-so loud, anxious brain that I love dearly, but sometimes it needs to shut up! My brain just loves to rehash everything that goes wrong, doesn’t matter if it was a minor or big thing! My brain has to analyze it. During my shower, […]
Is Love A Coping Mechanism?
As it’s Valentines Day, I thought love was an appropriate topic, though some of you may feel sick of the word! Hang with me, we’re talking about being in the purest form of love. So is love a coping mechanism? People most certainly use love as a coping mechanism. Many people rely on relationships and […]
