šļø New Mindset, Who Dis
ā£āThe Opposite of Settlingā is officially out and I was on @todayshow to celebrate and talk about it.ā¼ļøš« Itād mean a lot if youād leave a comment on this post (it helps spread the word) and if youād pick up a copy of the book! Iām so proud of this book and the journey getting here.ā

I wrote āThe Opposite of Settlingā through a lens of mindfulness, psychology, and optimism to show how building a life you love is the key to finding the love you want. The book breaks down how to tap into your āsparkā as the key to attracting love and ensuring it matches what you offer. I propose a new idea called āsettling upā - which is the opposite of setting down or settling. THANK YOU THANK YOU for supporting the book!

Last week's event in Dallas was so joyful and rewarding. 200 beautifulĀ souls in one room celebrating mindfulness, journaling, and the art of letting go.Ā People traveled from all over the US and I'm so grateful for that. Such a powerful time and honored to have teamed up with my friend @jb_copeland to share the power of optimism, language, and clarity.
