Here’s what we’re talking about today: 
  • A Compassionate View of the "Wounded": While we naturally feel for those with visible wounds or disabilities, I challenged you to extend that same empathy to the invisible struggles all around us - addiction, mental illness, you name it.
  • The "What If" Revelation: What if the very thing you perceive as a flaw or shortcoming is actually your greatest power for helping others? I got real with you about shame and how authenticity could be our secret weapon.
  • Being In "Assignment" with Ourselves: Inspired by Jamie Kern Lima, I rallied all of us to stay true to our highest, most authentic selves - the ones perfectly designed for our soul's true assignments.
  • Seeing All as "Children of God": In the wake of a Wounded Warrior event, my grandson's t-shirt sparked the reminder for me to view every person we encounter as a cherished child of God worthy of compassion.
Your Heartfelt Challenge from Me:

As you go about your day, make an effort to look at others - especially those different from you - through loving, grace-filled eyes. We're all struggling with something, seen or unseen. So extend a little extra kindness, knowing we're all just doing our best on this human journey together.

Let's Keep Spreading the Loving Energy!Don't forget to share your own stories, breakthroughs, or #humanmoments over on @myhappyasslife. A little empathy, understanding, and community go a long way!


I'm sending you off with my signature sweet affirmations and the reminder to stay true to your authentic, brilliant, happy ass self - quirks, wounds, and all. That's what makes this life journey one beautifully messy masterpiece!
