Desir-aster Turns to Happily Ever After

August 6, 2013 · In: ROMANCE, Uncategorized

IMG_0298

Oh Bachelorette Desiree, you are so incredibly lucky. It took only one quick television episode season for you to break your destructive love patterns. Many people NEVER do! She finally realized that it was a good idea to stop chasing the wet-noodle Brookses of the world and see the value of the solid Chrises. How many times did you have to date and be hurt by (or lose interest in) the same type of person until you saw the pattern and broke it? Do you think the producers coached that outta her or what? Where were MY producers???

Didn’t it feel like you were watching a different show last night-as in Desiree was a completely different person? She had feelings and wasn’t constantly deferring to her “cue-card-esque” monologue about each guy (except for one short clip). She had a personality, conviction and opinions. Love it.

So the biggest stomach twister for my Chris and I watching last night was, “How is Desiree going to explain her thought process about choosing Chris after she spent days (maybe weeks) crying over Brooks and telling Brooks she loved him?” Well, I was satisfied with how she addressed it. She really did finally understand that she deserved love. She was ready for mature love and I felt that her relationship with Drew was too superficial. It made sense when after the Brooks incident, she was unable to connect to Drew-Drew just wasn’t on that level with her. Poor guy. NOT. Drew will be fine! Those great looks, sweet attitude and love for his handicapped sister make him pretty much perfect. Maybe Neil Lane will help him with a ring down the line.

Alright…now how about the NEW Bachelor, Jaun Pablo? Juan Pablo Galavis Announced As New ‘Bachelor’ For Season 18 In the After The Rose Special, reports Huff Post TV. Is he going to find a mother for his beloved daughter Camilla? We all had a feeling it was going to be him. I loved how he sincerely asked Desiree in the ‘Guys Tell All’ episode why she never took him on a one-on-one date. That sealed the deal for me-he is real and he was trying. Sorry, Juan Pablo for Desiree making you just a Venezuelan boy-toy. Next season on The Bachelor, you’re going to be more than a sexy piece of former pro-soccer swagger with an accent that un-does buttons. Promise.

(check out those GORGEOUS flowers Steph and Isaac picked up for us at the Fremont Farmers Market last weekend in Seattle. LOVE the dahlias.)

I don’t know why I’ve always been like this, but m I don’t know why I’ve always been like this, but my brain is constantly looking for small ways to make one thing better.

Add a skylight.

I simply see everything as an opportunity to build and grow.

🚩Save & Share this Feminine Cycle Synching Schedul 🚩Save & Share this Feminine Cycle Synching Schedule: thriving in your energy through the 🌕 

This has been so helpful to me-especially in my 40s. 

Our energy shifts, our hormones change… and giving myself permission to embrace the phase has been a game-changer. 💫

Here’s what cycle syncing looks like for me as a creative mom to 4.
It’s not about perfection. It’s about permission.

🌕 The Four Phases:

🩸 Menstrual (Days 1–5)
→ Rest. Reflect. Retreat.
💡 What I do: Ditch the to-do list, cuddle with my kids, simplify meals, journal/podcasts, quiet everything down.

🌱 Follicular (Days 6–13)
→ Fresh energy. Planning. Creativity.
💡 What I do: Try a new recipe, organize a closet, plan/brainstorm work projects, create new art.

🌕 Ovulatory (Days 14–17)
→ Peak connection. Communication. Confidence.
💡 What I do: Connect with people I love, plan family outings, batch errands, date night, be out in the world.

🍂 Luteal (Days 18–28)
→ Deep work. Discernment. Declutter.
💡 What I do: Clean, prep, say no to extras, create cozy spaces, handle details before I dip.

In perimenopause or menopause your body also follows an energetic flow - monthly, seasonally, and emotionally. Trust your internal calendar more than the world’s. ✨

💌 Save this for the week your energy dips so you remember it’s not you. It’s your phase.

So I was happy in my life and grateful to be a mom So I was happy in my life and grateful to be a mom of 4 (with a double rainbow baby in my 40s)

But I also felt super uncomfortable in my body.

I started feeling ashamed of how I wasn’t able to enjoy vacations because I just felt so sluggish and heavy.

Then I decided I was done with all this.

I changed my mindset and my actual identity.

After 2 weeks of a little discomfort as I adjusted to my new identity and my body caught up, everything got easier every day.

Healthy habits became automatic.

I went for my daily walk without ever having to negotiate with myself.

I feel amazing in my jeans. I have more energy and my daily quality of life is so much better.

Comment the word BEGIN and I’ll send you my exact framework.
I went from forcing will power with nothing workin I went from forcing will power with nothing working to losing over 20 pounds as a 45 year old mom of 4 (youngest is a toddler).

I was still waking most nights with a little one but I needed a change in my health.

I felt not only tired but just so uncomfortable in my body.
I tried “feeling grateful” for what my body had done but I also wanted to feel great in a pair of jeans.

Then I tried something different.

I started imagining how amazing it would feel to be in those great jeans.

I started doing the things a healthy person would do automatically.

It just got easier and more on autopilot every day.
I teach you exactly how to do it.

Comment the word BEGIN and I’ll send it to you.
