Inspiration: Happy Friday!
Today is the 206th Day of 2025.

We have $206,000.00 today.
10% savings = $20,600.00
40% taxes = $82,400.00: This week I am expressing gratitude for these tax dollars being spent to support Mesa Verde National Park located in the state of Colorado. Mesa Verde officially became a National Park in 1906. You will find among other wonders Cliff Dwellings, Star Gazing and the Chapin Mesa Museum to explore. LEARN MORE HERE!

How will you be spending the remaining $103,000.00 today?

HERE IS MY PLAN: Pivot Your Focus

“They will criticize you for what you are,  for what you are not, and for what they think you are. They will judge you for what you do,  for what you don’t do, and for what you fail to do. They will talk about you for what you say and for what you keep silent about. They will point at you for your successes and for your mistakes,  for your decisions and for your doubts. No matter how much you try to please, there will always be opinions. So, live for yourself, because in the end, the only thing that matters is being true to your own path.” -Harrison Ford

How are you showing up in the world?

In a class this week the facilitator asked participants to imagine what they are most afraid could happen in the climate of current events. Examples included every woman in the world’s voice being silenced, being put in a concentration camp, Alligator Alcatraz, world starvation, etc. We were invited to stop focusing on worst case scenarios. The next assignment in class was to imagine that the world would end in 72 hours. The entire world in 72 hours will be gone. How are you spending your last 72 hours? Most participants said that they would reach out to loved ones and tell them that they are loved and that they matter. The other main response was to be in nature. The message of these exercises was that we have a choice to be present to live this moment, this day. Put more life into each day. How are you spending the next 72 hours of your life?

$100.00: self-care. I am buying food that I want to eat. If I only have 72 hours left to enjoy this human life, I am eating well. And I love that!

$0: Priceless: Self Respect

“Over time I stopped talking to those who did not listen to me and those who always wanted to be right…I stopped looking for people who hadn’t looked for me in a long time, I stopped, although I still think about people who never thought about me…I started doing what makes me feel good, without excess but with passion! I started to trust my intuition for everything, for every choice, for every person! I started avoiding negative people and started dating the rare positive people! Because I learned to have respect for myself and started putting myself first! Because I think and know I deserve it!”-Meryl Streep

In these challenging times, who are you being and what are you contributing to support humanity? It starts with consciously choosing to be kinder to yourself. What is working in your life today? Do more of that. Reach out and ask for help, activate more joy in living your life today. Connect with those you love. May your self-love be stronger than your self-doubt today. Fill your days with more life.

$101,900.00: These dollars are being used to send a surprise box filled with people’s favorite items. Imagine receiving your box. What is inside your surprise package? Respond to life with love. Repeat. What would it take?

$1000.00: for a date with my husband that includes a walk in nature, making dinner together over a conscious conversation about what we mean to each other and then slow dancing.

How loved can you stand it?

Flow Five Friday: Current “real” life expressions of gratitude, love, and contribution to wellbeing.

$5.00: this week’s five-dollar bill is inside the library book titled: The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron. I am choosing to be the energy of what works in life.

Five increments of time: This week I participated in a class with friends. We had a conscious conversation and nudged each other to choose more of what we love doing each day.  Being there; how does it get better than that? How are you “Flowing Five” this week?

Well-Being: Something that I am doing or not doing for self-care in real time.

 I am choosing to eat more fresh fruit and vegetables. It is easy at this time of year. Especially living in the country with pop up farm stands. What are you doing or not doing for self-care?

Planet Awareness: Contributing to the health of Earth.

“We never know the worth of water until the well is dry.”- French Proverb

This week the invitation to participate in a Plastic Free July includes taking a pledge to become a “Water Protector.” Author Carole Lindstrom offers activities for you and your family and/or your work team to take conscious actions. Learn more here:

What are you doing for the health of our planet?

Hold Space or Contribute to a Friends Life Intention

This week I am supporting my friend Tammi who finished her chemo treatments. One of Tammi’s living intentions is to attend her youngest son’s wedding in August. One way that you can help support Tammi’s living intention is to imagine her enjoying family and friends at her son’s wedding events. Or perhaps you can call a friend or family member to tell stories about weddings you attended. How are you connecting with people who matter?

Choose joy. Be kind.

Love others and strive to be a better human.

What would it take?

Choose to feel good. Be Joy. 
Practice gratitude. Amplify Kindness. Expand Generosity. 
Ask, Receive, and Give with More Ease. 
Respond to life with Love.
