I believe joy is a spiritual practice we have to work at.

I believe a joyful life is made up of joyful moments, gracefully strung together by trust, gratitude, inspiration, and faith.

Dare to be the adults we want our children to be.

Vulnerability sounds like truth and feels like courage.

We cannot grow when we are in shame, and we can't use shame to change ourselves or others.

When we fail to set boundaries and hold people accountable, we feel used and mistreated. This is why we sometimes attack who they are, which is far more hurtful than addressing a behavior or a choice.

Hope is really a thought.
