The Power of Community and Ceremony
I’ve never been a party girl. I tend toward introversion, and though I love connection, I don’t always love connection in the conventional style. So when I found out I was pregnant, pretty much the last thing I wanted was a traditional baby shower. I wanted to celebrate the transition into motherhood with something less… Continue reading The Power of Community and Ceremony

What Would Feel Better Now?
By Anamsong Endorsed Mind-Body Coach, Jessica Steward As a solopreneur, it can feel very strange and lonely working for oneself day-in and day-out.

Gone Fishing
Well, not really. I don’t actually fish. I am, however, taking a few weeks to rest! This is an assignment I often give to clients, and I see that it’s time to assign it to myself. I’m taking time to do nothing, to be completely unproductive, and to listen to my body and soul. While… Continue reading Gone Fishing
