How Do I Know If I’m Actually Getting Better?
This is one of the most common—and most honest—questions I hear. Because when you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, or low motivation, progress doesn’t always look dramatic. There’s no clear finish line. No moment where everything suddenly feels “fixed.” Instead, people often say: “I think I’m better… but I’m not sure.” “Nothing is worse, but nothing is amazing either.” “I still have symptoms, so does that mean this isn’t working?” If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re tr

Low Motivation Is Not a Character Flaw
If you’ve ever told yourself: “I’m just lazy.” “I have no discipline.” “I used to be motivated—what happened to me?” Please hear this first: Low motivation is not a moral failure. It’s not a lack of character, willpower, or desire to do better.Most of the time, it’s a sign that the body doesn’t have enough available energy to initiate action. And that changes how we approach it. This article is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose o

Anxiety Isn’t the Enemy — It’s a Signal
This article is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose or treat anxiety or mental health conditions. I am not a licensed medical or mental health provider. Anxiety gets a bad rap. Most people experience it as something to fight, suppress, or get rid of as quickly as possible. And when it lingers—despite supplements, therapy, breathing exercises, or “doing all the right things”—it can start to feel scary or even shameful. But here’s the reframe that chan

Should You Sweat It Out for Weight Loss?
Why Being Uncomfortably Hot Can Backfire It's the middle of January and I’m dressed more for the outside today in one of my favorite fleeces—but my office tends to be pretty warm. As the morning went on, I could feel myself getting hotter and hotter. My face was actually warm and pink. And I caught myself thinking: Well… maybe this is a good thing? Maybe this is some thermogenic activity happening. Maybe I’m burning fat just sitting here. So I did what I always do.I went digg

New Year Reset + Rituals
There’s something about January that feels like a clean slate. Not the “new year, new you” pressure — just a gentle invitation to reset, re-center, and step into the next season feeling a little more aligned than before. And honestly? Most people don’t need a massive overhaul… They need rhythm. Ritual. A few daily anchors that bring their body back online. Here are the simple rituals I love weaving into a New Year reset (and the ones I teach my clients to use when they want t
