For 2019, I’m choosing to celebrate the New Year differently. For the first time, I’m going to ring in the New Year solo. In the past, I would have been in a panic to be alone. While I do have places where I could celebrate, I’m actually looking forward to the solitude. This desire isContinue reading “2018: Celebrating Wholeness & Completion”

Understanding Personalities with The Enneagram
I have spent much of my life feeling that there was something inherently wrong with me, having felt haunted by some “deep dark secret” that I could not touch nor fully understand. This feeling has been both a blessing and a curse. It both drives me forward into greater levels of self-exploration while at timesContinue reading “Understanding Personalities with The Enneagram”
Fasting During Workouts for Improved Performance
This is another seemingly unbelievable benefit to intermittent fasting: improved physical performance with exercise while fasting. Last week, I ran 2 full miles while 12+ hours into a fast. I outperformed my last fasted run by double and with a faster pace. In the prior month, I had been running after breaking the fast and I wasContinue reading “Fasting During Workouts for Improved Performance”
Growth Follows Grief
Grief is often seen as a roadblock to growth. More often than not, we get stuck in grief by pushing it away or sinking into it. The analogy I now see is that grief is like driving on loose sand; to struggle against it, we can get further trapped. To stop all together, we sinkContinue reading “Growth Follows Grief”
Be the Light
We are here to be the light to show others the way out of the darkness. It is through greater self-acceptance and love that we bring more light into this world. Fear blocks the light and masks keep the light hidden. Judgment is a form of fear that blocks the light from shining through us.Continue reading “Be the Light”
Maybe We’ve Got Christ Backwards
Religion is personally a very tough topic for me, having felt burnt in most churches. Yet, here I find myself on Christmas Night writing about Christ and how I believe we’ve overlooked a very important message… If Christ truly died for our sins, then that is where the martyrdom should end. Right? Then why doContinue reading “Maybe We’ve Got Christ Backwards”
Recovering from Heartbreak: Taking it to the Next Level
Healing from heartbreak can be a drawn out and difficult process. It can seem to take forever because we don’t like feeling hurt or that we are broken. Often we suppress our feelings and try to rush the process in our desire to feel “A-OKAY” which can further prolong the process. Idealizing the person andContinue reading “Recovering from Heartbreak: Taking it to the Next Level”
Tiffany’s Epiphanies: The Benefits of Shared Vulnerability
I hesitated to share my angst during the dark night of the soul that I mentioned in “Cleaning House for Clarity.” Yet, I felt like I was quickly drowning and knew I needed a lifeline. I messaged 3 close friends and requested they hold me in the light. In sharing my vulnerability and my needContinue reading “Tiffany’s Epiphanies: The Benefits of Shared Vulnerability”
New Series & Cleaning House for Clarity with Tiffany’s Epiphanies
The dark night was showing me where I did not love myself and where I was repeatedly choosing suffering over my own happiness and joy. Prologue Just for a moment, I encourage you to reflect on the course of your life over the past few years. We can have such a strong tendency to jumpContinue reading “New Series & Cleaning House for Clarity with Tiffany’s Epiphanies”
Fasting for Focus, Plus More
Just over 2 months ago, a friend was telling me how intermittent fasting (IF) had helped his focus. Intrigued, I started researching IF while trying this new way of eating on for size (pun not originally intended). Mind you, I am the woman who (before this) would not have skipped a meal without … consequences.Continue reading “Fasting for Focus, Plus More”
