This morning, during my Bible study, I found myself sitting with a simple but uncomfortable truth: how easy it has become to lie. Not just to others, but to ourselves. We lie in subtle ways. We curate versions of ourselves to be more acceptable, more successful, more “together.” We tell ourselves stories to maintain a certain image, to avoid discomfort, or to protect ourselves from pain. Often, these lies don’t even feel like lies anymore, they feel like survival. And the wor

Is Anxiety Running Your Life? Do you wake up feeling tense, overthink every decision, or feel like your mind is always on high alert? You’re not alone.

In a world that moves too fast, Christmas was never meant to be a performance. It was never meant to be a competition, a checklist, or a measure of success. Its original purpose, whether you see it spiritually, emotionally, or simply as a human tradition, was to remind us of something deeper: Stillness. Connection. Compassion. Renewal. As a Clinical Hypnotherapist and RTT® Therapist, I see how this season awakens so many layers within people. The memories, the contrasts, the

In a world full of noise, expectations, pressures, and opinions it’s incredibly easy to drift away from who you truly are. We learn to fit in, to please, to perform. Over time, our inner voice can become quiet, overshadowed by everything and everyone around us. Authenticity is a word we hear often, yet few of us take the time to explore what it really means. More importantly, how do we return to our authentic selves when life has slowly pulled us off course? What Does It Mea
