Today, I want to share a personal story with you. Surprisingly, I found myself in a church recently, attending a mass at my son's school. Now, if you know me, you'd be surprised because I'm not a religious person. I consider myself more spiritual, with unconventional beliefs that go beyond traditional religions. It's unexpected for those close to my husband and me to know that we send our kids to Catholic schools. But there's a reason behind it, a fortunate twist of fate. While I was raised Catholic, my family wasn't deeply involved in the church. I went through the rituals of baptism and first communion but decided not to take the sacrament of confirmation. As I grew older, my scientific mind and the negative aspects of organized religion pushed me further away from spirituality. However, sending our kids to Catholic school has challenged my perspectives on religion and spirituality. It's been an intriguing journey that constantly pushes me to reconsider my beliefs. Sometimes, I wish I could approach it more lightly, viewing it as a mere set of practices. But that's not the path I've chosen for this lifetime. Today, I want to share a reflection on love. Spirituality allows me to experience incredible emotions, feel connected to all beings, and appreciate the beauty of creation. In my relationship with the Catholic Church, I realized that I had thrown out the baby with the bathwater. Attending the mass with my family brought forth overwhelming love and joy. It made me realize that we often close ourselves off to the love, abundance, and beauty available to us. Just like my experience with nature during the pandemic, where I initially felt disconnected in my urban surroundings, I learned to open my heart and embrace the nature that was already present. Similarly, I invite you to consider where you might be blocking yourself from joy, love, and abundance due to broad, high-level decisions or unquestioned beliefs. Take a moment to reflect on your spirituality, the love available to you, the appreciation and support from those around you, the abundance within reach, and the opportunities that may be waiting for you. Can you open your heart to receive what's there for you? I sincerely hope you will.

As a coach, I often see people feeling emotionally and mentally drained due to their jobs or relationships.Recently, a physician client of mine shared how she was taking on her patients' emotions, which was affecting her overall wellbeing.This happens in many professions, especially for empathetic individuals. It's crucial to protect your mental and emotional health by setting boundaries and communicating your needs.Don't allow others to take your energy and harm you. Take responsibility for your wellbeing and take care of your human.It's time to prioritize yourself and your boundaries.
