Being generous, truth about “small” wins, and aging myths

3 Reflections From My Week

1.

Kindness has been reverberating in my world...both in the giving and receiving.

A shared smile with a stranger on my morning walk.
A new associate offering me her apartment while I’m in her city.
Me picking up the tab for a friend at an event.

There’s something profoundly grounding about being open and connected.

It’s in these moments that we remember why we’re here. To show up fully, to impact others, and to create ripples of positive impact in the world.


2.

Celebrating every single 1% is what will shift you out of any stuckness.

It’s easy to fall into black-and-white thinking and believe your efforts aren’t enough. But the more you judge your progress, the more you keep yourself stuck.

Transformation is supported by honoring the smallest, most subtle shifts. It’s easy to celebrate the obvious wins; it takes a true practitioner to see, honor, and amplify the “small” ones.


3.

Don’t let cultural conditioning convince you that aging means pain, chronic illness, medications, or feeling rundown.

It’s a story we’ve been sold by industries that profit from keeping us unhealthy.

We get to choose how we age. My 94-year-young dad taught me that. Decades ago he completely shifted my perspective on aging just by living with health, purpose, and vitality every single day. And still does.


2 Questions For You

Where are you withholding kindness, love, or generosity in your life?

Why are you withholding it?


1 Thing I’m Obsessed With 

I just got an air fryer and now I’m wondering how I ever lived without it! 🍗

I love fried chicken but not the seed oils or the idea of restaurants reusing the same oil over and over.

So I made my first batch last night…not quite as good as deep-fried, but it still hit the spot. Easy, fast, and totally satisfying! This is the one I bought.
