Safe Haven

It’s time to focus on inner wellness in an outer world that's gone crazy.


We’re living in this unprecedented time of turbulence. How do we create a safe and nourishing space for ourselves and our families?

"True self-care is the structural foundation on which you build your life."

I also know that in times of stress the first thing that goes out the window is your self-care. With everything that’s happening in the world today I understand why you might feel like you have no time to focus on your well-being. I’ve made that mistake plenty of times myself.

Most of us struggle with self-care because we’re not making it a priority.  We’re busy doing a million other things. And sometimes we feel guilty about taking time for ourselves because our to-do list is endless—and we forget that self-care really is where the rest flows from.

The better you feel, the more focused and healthier you are, the more bandwidth you have, the less chance that you’ll be irritated or lash out. Everything—and everyone—will benefit when you take better care of yourself.

Which means the best way to deal with an outer world that’s gone crazy is to ensure that your inner world is calm and resilient.

There’s no need to do this alone. We’re all in this together and the power of community paired with practical tools & tips—based on my 20+ years of supporting people—will make all the difference in how you feel moving forward.

That's why I'm thrilled to open doors to my new online community Safe Haven!

I did my first Gratitude Project several years ago during a time when I thought my world was falling apart.  I quickly came to appreciate how a gratitude practice helped to reframe the experience and to increase my resilience when facing new challenges.  I hesitated to join this time due to other things on my plate, but a friend – whom I had “met” through my first Gratitude Project and who has kept in touch – wisely reminded me that I should join precisely because of the other things on my plate!  I invited a few friends as well. The changes I have seen in myself since doing my first Gratitude Project really speak to our ability to change and rewire our brains in positive ways!
