Just Breathe Mama
Our society fills motherhood with pressure and expectations. This community helps mothers reconnect
This past Thursday, another angel got his wings 🪽❤️
Dad, I still can't believe you're gone. I love you so much, and our memories will be in my heart forever.
I am so grateful for the extra moments we spent together over the last few months, and to have been able to comfort and care for you like you've always done for me.
This year has stretched me in ways I could have never imagined.
Watching you suffer has been the biggest lesson in surrender and trust; it's beaten me down, and it's woken me up to what's truly important.
I already miss your "sure love ya's," and your constant Harvey & Ada check-ins. The bond that you had with both of them was so special to me.
I would do anything to turn back time and give you one more hug or take this all away.
Until we meet again, thank you for being such a loving and caring Dad (and Gramps).
Sending you so much peace and joy.
Love, Care (Pickle aka. Pic)

In building a business that resonates with your soul, it's essential to embrace an intuitive, intentional, and aligned model. Let's dive in!
INTUITIVE
By listening to your intuition, and paying attention to the whispers of your heart - you can allow your intuition to guide your decisions, identify opportunities, and navigate challenges. Your intuition is a powerful compass, leading you towards what feels truly right and aligned for your business.
INTENTIONAL
Design your business with purpose. Make conscious choices, and prioritize activities that align with your vision. Each step you take should serve a purpose, and feel good in your body.
ALIGNED
Align your business with your core values, passions, and beliefs. Let every aspect of your business - from your offerings to your marketing, reflect what you value deep down. Creating alignment will help your business feel more simple, and create meaningful connection with the clients you're meant to work with.
Are these an important part of your business model?

Tell me below, are you guilty of undercharging in your business? 🙋🏻♀️
Because the process of pricing is subjective, it can feel really uncomfortable to land on a price that feels good.
We looked to others.
We listen to the money stories that tell us that we aren't enough to charge what we truly desire.
And then, we end up feeling resentment for the time and energy that we put into our products and services.
I know there's a better way.
A way where we look within ourselves to land on a price that feels good in our body.
So that we can put our full energy and heart into those we are helping.
So that we serve the right clients who are willing to invest their time and energy.
Here are two things that are important when you're deciding on a price:
Account for EVERYTHING that you are giving to your clients - both the physical and the emotional transformation.
AND
FEEL into what you truly desire.
If you want more confidence with pricing your offers, join us inside of Heart-Led offerings!
We are getting super clear on the energetics of pricing, so there is no more wishy-washy energy happening.

Looking back, I've learned so much these past few years as an entrepreneur.
Here is some insider info that I share with my clients, so that they can move into a space where they are thriving today:
1. Money is always supporting me. Grounding into this belief means that I have completely changed how I invest in myself, and the risks I take.
2. When I feel myself waiting, there is a deeply rooted belief that needs to be uncovered. Fear shows up in the most mysterious ways.
3. Trusting the innate rhythm of my body and energy will lead to long-term growth and sustainability. I'm in it for the long haul, this is not about a short burst of impact leading to burnout.
4. When you carve out the space for what lights you up, the universe responds accordingly. It takes courage, but those of you who have moved in this direction will know exactly what I'm talking about.
5. Abundance flows when I am being my next level self today. What am I available and unavailable for as her?
6. Connection with like-minded people leads to support and growth.
7. Mom guilt as a business owner is neither serving me or my kids. When I am in my power, my children reap the benefits too!
Save this post for next time you need a reminder.
What do you wish you had known in the beginning stages of being an entrepreneur?
Are you letting fear of failure stop you?
Because if you are, know that I was here not so long ago.
Failure is a necessary part of the process and can lead to so much growth and expansion.
So remember: your worth, your vision, your impact means so much more than a few failures along the way.
Like and save this post for the next time 'failure' is showing up in your business.
I have believed the phrase, 'mindset is everything' for a long time, but I had a hard time applying this practice in my business.
Instead, I tried to work harder, be more productive and learn the necessary skills of how to run a successful business.
As a mom, this immediately led to burnout.
All the while I had everything I needed within me already; and as soon as I began working on myself and my mindset, this is when the abundance began flowing into my business with ease.
And that's because, my mindset directly impacts:
1️⃣ How I choose to view the past.
2️⃣ Whether I feel worthy of receiving.
3️⃣ The actions that I take moving forward.
My outer reality became a reflection of my internal reality.
So, I urge you to learn from my mistakes. Instead of looking outside yourself for the answers on how to run a successful business, I challenge you to start looking within.
➡️Where are YOU holding yourself back?
I guarantee that as soon as you start looking, your answers will become very clear.
I'd love to hold your hand in this process in my upcoming offer, Soul Startup.
Together, lets uncover your mindset blocks.
Let's get you showing up in your business in a way that feels beautifully aligned.
And let's begin attracting abundance in your business without the constant hustle.

I still get this question all the time - what the heck is Human Design?
So today I'm here to answer that question, and busting some of the myths.
Human Design is, most importantly, a tool that you can lean on to learn about YOU on a deeper level.
Just like you, I can be skeptical and caught up in the 'but is this Human Design even REAL?' thoughts. I love when things are based on facts and science.
And even though I can't answer whether it's REAL or not, one thing I can say with confidence is that it is USEFUL.
It has been (hands down!) the tool that has given me permission to follow my heart and chase my dreams; and that's because, leaning into my truth means that I have become more intentional, developed trust in myself and become aware of blocks that were holding me back.
I don't like to think of Human Design as a hard and fast system; one that needs to be followed in a strict or rigid way.
Instead, it's meant to be playful and experimented with.
So that you can start confidently showing up and make decisions as the person you are deep down.
So that you can begin creating a life, motherhood and business that feels SO FREAKING good to your soul.
I can't think of anything more useful than that.
Okay, this one's for the creative, side-hustling and small biz mamas.
I'm here to let you in on a little secret 🤫 to success.
Understanding this little shift has made such a huge difference in my business...
🔥Your soul clients buy your products and services because of YOU; they are attracted to YOUR unique energy.
The energy with which you show up, and the way that you make others feel when they are in your aura - it can be magnetizing.
This doesn't mean that you have to show up as a bold, bubbly and energetic person. It means that you need to start leaning into YOU. The one who is hiding under the fears and facade.
Human Design can help us embrace our true authentic and powerful self, and it can also do so much more for our businesses...
1️⃣ It helps us to look inward when deciding how to show up in our businesses.
2️⃣ It helps us to step into our power, so we can confidently show up for our soul clients.
3️⃣ It helps us to be intentional about where we spend our time and energy.
4️⃣ It helps us to trust ourselves when making decisions and investments.
5️⃣ It helps us to run our business in the energy of ease.

Last night I completely lost it on Harvey.
I yelled at him really loud, and I let him see all of my emotions.
I had found my inner calm + patience countless times in the day, and bedtime set me over my edge.
After replaying what happened in my head, I knew I wanted to do two things:
1. Repair the relationship with Harvey with an apology.
2. Repair the relationship with MYSELF.
The disappointment and guilt about HOW I react meant that I started telling myself some pretty nasty things.
Nick kindly reminded me that a relationship is not built on one experience, but on many encounters over time.
In addition, self compassion gives me the grace to start over, knowing that showing up + trying my best as a Mom everyday is enough.
Just like I would be kind and patient with a new friend, I can be mindful about my self communication by asking three things:
1. Is what I am saying true?
2. Is what I am saying necessary?
3. Is what I am saying kind?
In moments of reactivity, it's easy to think about the other, and how you did them wrong. This is your friendly reminder that we are not perfect, and we need to continue to muster that skill of self-compassion each and every day.
