You Deserve 10 Minutes a Day — Let’s Begin Together

 



These days, we’re all so busy. Between picking up and dropping off kids at practice, working, traveling for work, making dinner, cleaning the house, squeezing in a workout, there never seems to be a moment to just… stop.

If this sounds familiar, you’re exactly who I’m talking to.

It’s time to get intentional with your time and give yourself permission to slow down, even if it’s just for 5 or 10 minutes a day. Everyone deserves at least that much space to let your body and mind relax and simply be still.

I can already hear what you’re thinking:

 “I don’t have time for that.”

 “I can’t shut my mind off.”

But here’s the truth: you do have time for what matters, and everyone can learn to quiet their mind. Like any skill, it just takes practice. You won’t master it on day one, but the more you show up for yourself, the easier and more enjoyable it becomes.

So, how do you get started?

It’s called meditation, and no, it doesn’t have to involve chanting, lighting incense (though I personally love that!), or sitting cross-legged on the floor. You can certainly do all those things, but really, all you need is a few minutes, a quiet space, and consistency.

Once you begin, you’ll start to crave this time, and over time, you’ll find yourself wanting to stay in stillness longer and longer.

If you’re still on the fence, here are just a few of the proven benefits of meditation:

 Reduces stress & anxiety by calming your nervous system.

 Improves focus, memory, and attention.

·       Boosts emotional well-being and helps you regulate your feelings.

        Helps you fall asleep faster and sleep better.

·       Supports your physical health by lowering blood pressure and even easing chronic pain.

I’ve been meditating for about six years now. I started during a particularly stressful time at work, and it completely changed the way I handled challenges and emotions. Since then, I’ve recommended it to hundreds of people and everyone who’s given it an honest try has been surprised at how transformative it is.

But I know it can feel overwhelming at first. The #1 thing I hear is:

"I don’t even know how to meditate."

Let’s change that together. I’m inviting you to join me for a 7-Day Meditation Journey from August 3–9.

Each day, you’ll receive a simple, guided meditation (just 10–15 minutes) to help you build this powerful habit. No stress, no pressure, just a little time for you each day. Because you’re worth it.

Sign up today, and I’ll send you all the details on August 2. CLICK HERE

When Protecting Yourself Holds You Back

Image
  As I sit here, thinking about what would have been my 7 year wedding anniversary in just a few weeks, I’m struck by the reality of being a 43-year-old single woman, divorced not once but twice. That’s the first time I’ve admitted it out loud. It’s a place I never imagined I’d be—never in my wildest dreams did I think I’d face one divorce, let alone two. With this comes a whirlwind of emotions: self-doubt, shame, and the aching belief that I’m not good enough, not wanted, or somehow easy to let go of —feelings I know are tied to deeper-rooted issues I’ll be working to unpack thought this year’s journey of introspection. In my second marriage, I held on to the hope that we’d weather every storm together. I envisioned us at 80 years old, looking back and saying, “Fuck, we went through so much, but we made it—we’re still here, together.” Yet, despite that hope, I spent much of our marriage guarding my heart, keeping pieces of myself hidden to avoid being hurt. I told myself I had t...

Shifting Mindsets, Changing Lives: Why I’m Running 13.1 Miles

Image
  In just a few weeks, I will be running 13.1 miles—not just for myself, but for the children and families who are in the fight of their lives (and the ones who lost their battle). I’m running to raise awareness and funds to support families navigating childhood cancer treatment and clinical trials, and I need your help. On my wrist, I will wear a bracelet that says “I GET TO” —a simple yet powerful reminder. I don’t have to run; I GET TO. I get to push my limits, challenge myself, and use this opportunity to make a difference. We often go through life thinking, I have to —I have to go to work, I have to work out, I have to do this or that. But what if we shifted our mindset? What if we saw these moments not as obligations but as opportunities? I get to wake up and train for this race. I get to move my body, breathe fresh air, and feel strong. I get to use my health, my energy, and my privilege to make an impact for those who don’t have that choice. Too many children don’...

Redefining Enough: Letting Go of the Invisible Measuring Stick

Image
  For as long as I can remember, I’ve carried this underlying feeling of not being enough. And it’s hard to explain because it’s not rooted in comparison—I don’t look at others and wish I were more like them. It’s deeper than that. It’s an internal feeling of not enough as a mom, friend, sister, daughter, or partner. A quiet but persistent voice that whispers, you should be doing more, being more. In many ways, this feeling has shaped who I am today. It’s made me a goal-setter, a problem-solver, and someone who thrives on productivity and control. And while those traits have helped me achieve a lot, they’ve also stolen moments of joy—because no matter what I accomplish, that nagging voice still lingers, telling me it’s not enough. Lately, I’ve been sitting with this feeling instead of pushing past it. I’ve made 2025 my year of introspection, and the same two questions keep surfacing: What is enough? And enough for who? I believe that when a thought keeps resurfacing, it’s ...
