This Month, Prioritize Human Connection.
Hey there,
I intended to send out an email with some important updates and exciting news, but this is not that. This is a journal entry that has consumed me for almost the entirety of the day, hence the length and the hour I’m sending it out. I’m sharing this because I think its worth sharing.

Here’s a brief snippet, you can continue the rest on my blog (I didn’t want to scare anyone off with an inappropriately long email). Ugh. Just thinking about opening my email to be smacked in the face with a novel gives me anxiety. Anyway, I hope you get something out of it…

Neuroaesthetics. I was today years old when I learned “Neuroaesthetics” is a thing.
What is Neuroaesthetics? And why am I so interested in it?
In life, “you can start over whenever you want, and as many times as it takes.”
The phrase "in life, you can start over whenever you want and as many times as it takes" is a powerful reminder of our capacity for renewal and change. Embracing this mindset opens up a world of possibilities. It allows us to live dynamically, continually evolving and adapting in pursuit of our dreams and happiness. So remember, no matter where you find yourself today, a new beginning is always within reach.
Repeat after me, “Be the Person YOU Need Right Now.” A phrase that helps me through the tough times.

Rather, it’s about cultivating inner resilience and changing the conversation within ourselves from one of criticism and negativity to one of support and self-compassion.
