Learning to say no is easier said than done. But, it's essential to say no in certain instances in order to maintain your sanity and wellness. Gently being firm is the approach I've had to make with family, recently. Doing so, allows for me to restore and replenish my energy. If you are overextending yourself to the point of exhaustion, it's okay to say no.

To all of my Sacred Medicine listeners and sisters, I've had a rough couple of weeks. You can listen to my two most previous Wisdom for the Weekend episodes to hear my self-reflection about stress, losing my shit and taking a break. This week, while I sit in a beautiful room in Tuscany, Italy I find myself not wanting to explore. Instead, spending some quiet time in solitude is what I find to be helpful. It's what keeps me grounded.  In this episode, I share my current experience, as well as, offer a reminder to you, to do what keeps you grounded when life seems like it's spinning out of control.

I decided to go ahead with a planned vacation after spending countless days at the hospital bedside with my dad. My body couldn't handle it anymore; my adrenals exhausted, and I was emotionally burnt out. I was experiencing sleepless nights, not eating, and felt like things were spiraling out of control. So while it was a very hard decision to move forward with the planned vacation, it most definitely is a well deserved break for my body and my soul. So, this episode is a reminder to you to take a break before you break down.

This week has been an extremely challenging one for me. My dad has been in the hospital. After finding him in respiratory distress, I went into ER nurse practitioner mode. Later, after watching my family become extremely emotional, I lost my shit. I couldn't keep up with the strong attitude and be an empath, at the same time. My dad is improving. We are all still praying for his full recovery. Listen in to hear more of the story.
