When everything feels urgent, loud, and overwhelming — how do we stay engaged without burning out?

In this episode of Loving From Where I Am, we continue the conversation on grounding ourselves in chaotic times and explore what sustainable engagement really looks like.

This isn’t about retreating.
It’s about building internal steadiness so our care can last.

We talk about:

• The difference between caring and carrying everything

• Why intensity is not the same as impact

• How regulation creates clarity

• Small, steady actions that build long-term change

• And how curiosity in communication expands capacity

Sustainable engagement moves differently.
It is rhythmic, relational, and rooted in self-awareness.

If you’ve been feeling activated, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin, this episode offers a grounded place to start.

✨ Regulation creates space.
✨ Space creates clarity.
✨ Clarity creates aligned action.

Thank you for being here.

When so many things are happening at once, it can feel hard to know where to begin.
Collective grief, injustice, fear, and uncertainty can activate the nervous system before the mind has words.

In this episode of Loving From Where I Am, I reflect on what it looks like to start small—by centering the body and creating enough steadiness to stay present, human, and connected.

This isn’t about answers or direction.
It’s about companionship, reflection, and learning how to stay with ourselves when the world feels overwhelming.

You don’t require clarity to begin.
You don’t require confidence to start.

You're just allowing yourself to be.....

Loving Again — Episode 2 is live.

After six years, Loving From Where I Am returns.

This episode is a reflection on growth, grief, faith, and movement—and a reminder that love isn’t something we wait to become. It’s something we practice, right where we are.

One question guides it all:
How are you loving from where you are today?

"Dying is at its heart a sacred act; it is itself a time, a space, and the process of surrender and transformation. The sacred is not separate or different from all things but rather hidden in all things. Dying is an opportunity to uncover what is hidden." - Frank Ostaseski

This was not an easy episode to record. Death, dying, transitioning is a subject that can be difficult to experience. I know for myself that the loss of someone is inevitable. Transitioning is a process of life that occurs all around us... in our bodies, in nature and even within ourselves...

I do not fear my own transition but I do struggle with the emotions that show up as the result. Join me as I navigate this is real-time... I don't have the answer on how to deal and heal. I can only provide a glimpse into how I am loving myself from where I am.

Welcome,

You can read all the books, meditate for hours, speak all the affirmations that you know and yet nothing happens until something moves... The world can go in circles sometimes and you're left in the center wondering why. Life is waiting for you to stop wondering what if and when. Life is asking you to create it.

Welcome,

We can easily distance ourselves from our innermost truth. Take a moment to listen.... Give yourself the gift of connection because within you lies the universe... Take a moment to honor yourself and connect back to who you truly are.

Welcome,

There is a lot going on in the world right... We are all asking ourselves to slow down, reconnect and be present to what is being communicated. In this episode, I talk about how important present moment awareness can be and ways to be still. It takes practice, patience, and love... Give this moment to yourself.
