Every Choice Counts

This past week, many of us showed up to vote. To use our voice, to choose our future. Voting is powerful — and that same power lives in the choices we make each day.

Every small decision — what you say yes to, what you release, how you respond when things feel hard — is a kind of vote. A vote for awareness over autopilot. For wholeness over shrinking. For healing over repeating outdated patterns.

As we move toward the holidays, it’s more important than ever to keep voting — with our attention, our time, our energy, even our dollars. This season can pull us in many directions, but we can choose to stay anchored in what matters most: slowing down, staying true, holding the vision for deep healing.

Keep reading for your weekly self-care guide. A few simple ways to nurture yourself as the season picks up.

✦ La Luna is Waning

The waning moon invites release. It’s a natural time to shed what no longer supports your wholeness — others’ expectations, outdated habits, or even inner pressure.

Journal on this: What am I ready to clear so I can move through this season with more presence?

✦ Affirmation of the Week

“I choose awareness over autopilot.”

Say it slowly. Let it ground you. Feel what it’s like to move from this truth.

✦ Free Course: You Are Not Your Patterns

The holidays can stir old habits like rushing, overfunctioning, or pushing your needs aside (again). Motherhood does too. But you are not defined by these patterns.

Curious how to notice them and respond with awareness and choice? My free course, You Are Not Your Patterns is a gentle space to pause, reflect, and try small, meaningful ways of showing up differently this season.
