Embracing Change: From April Showers to May Flowers


Hey Radiant Souls!

Can you believe we're about to turn the page from April to May? It's the perfect time to start thinking about all the beautiful shifts that spring brings—both in nature and in our lives. Summer's just around the corner, and I want to help you get into the spirit with some great tips, a little inspiration, and a treat to kick things off in style.

🌿 Parenting Adult Children: It’s All About the Shift

As our kids grow up and start living their own lives, it's natural for relationships to shift. I know this firsthand—watching my own kids take on their adult responsibilities has been a journey. It’s about finding balance: being there for them when they need it, while also letting go of the reins. If you're navigating this change too, remember to give yourself some grace. You’ve done an amazing job getting them to this point.

You can read a little bit about my journey navigating life with my youngest daughter and our struggles for peace and healing in this week's spotlight "The Damage I Couldn't See: Loving a Child Through Generational Trauma". I hope it gives a bit of hope to anyone struggling with guilt and shame in their own parenting journey.

🚀 Pivoting in Business (and Life)

Speaking of change, I’ve been reflecting on my own entrepreneurial journey lately. There’s nothing like the rush of starting a new chapter, and pivoting in business is a lot like that. Whether you're starting a side hustle, launching a new product, or just trying to shift gears, know that it's never too late to make it happen. If you're looking for tips on creating your own business or navigating the twists and turns of entrepreneurship, I’ve got your back.

🛋 Declutter and Downsize: Less is More (Seriously)

Here’s a little nugget from my personal journey: I went from a 2800 sq ft house to living on a Catalina 381 boat. Yes, really! Talk about a crash course in living with less. If you're thinking about downsizing or simplifying your life, there are some incredible lessons to be learned. What did I learn? Well, it turns out I can live without a lot more than I thought. It’s about prioritizing what really matters and letting go of the rest.

In fact, I’m currently considering a move into an RV full-time. I’ve been doing some research on costs, pros and cons, and how to make it work. It’s a big step, but with the right mindset and planning, it’s possible—and maybe even a little magical. Stay tuned for more on that!
