Some real talk: we live in tumultuous times. We might call them chaotic and even contemptuous. Burnout seems to be pervasive – emotional, physical, spiritual….
I mean, are you feeling pretty crispy around the edges? Two years of a global pandemic, political strife and even war can really take its toll.
I’m Holly and I know what it feels like to be burnt out, drained and so, so tired.
But there’s one thing I know for sure:
It will get better.
Even in the midst of a pandemic-maybe even more so now-we need you. We need your light. We need your voice. We need your gifts.
“Your playing small does not serve the world…we are all meant to shine.”
Marianne Williamson
You might be asking yourself – how do you “shine” for the world when you are so busy that dry shampoo is taking care of the little shine you do have? COVID-19 has really thrown us a curveball, hasn’t it.
I hear you. I have a big family – and –
I’m also a writer, an editor, a new PhD grad and a home renovator. I sew Christmas jammies, bottle fruit every summer and lead international humanitarian trips.
My schedule, like yours, is busy. I’m often asked how I “do it all.” I don’t.
I don’t do it all and I don’t have all the answers – no one does.
Here’s what I’ve learned though:
We are enough
We are on this earth to learn, to love and to serve others and honestly, to (re)discover who we really are.
I know there IS hope. There IS joy. There can even be pockets of calm amid the chaos.
Wanna join me in navigating this unsettled time and at the same time, growing into the next beautiful version of ourselves? I’d love to take this journey with you.
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
