Do you have an oasis? The word itself refers to a "green or fertile place in an arid area".
Your "oasis" is the place where you go to renew. It waters your soul and revives your spirit. This is why it is so important for you to identify where your oasis is.
This month has been serving as an oasis for me in all things. The year has been a journey without the usual nourishment I receive from events, and so I continue to create and honor space and time to replenish and "water" my soul.
From designing new opportunities to connect with clients and members, to embracing my curiosity, my October Oasis is where I am happily taking a break from the arid conditions of the year.
With that, let's catch up on what I've been up to this week...

Have you ever really thought about the word, embrace?
While we all automatically go to the heart of the meaning, "to hold someone closely in your arms", there is so much more to this wonderful word.
Another definition of embrace is:
to accept or support (a belief, theory, or change) willingly and enthusiastically.
WOW! Just wow.
I think that is why I just love this word. The idea of embracing something with enthusiasm opens a new perspective to "how" we interact with whatever "it" is.

What is it about the month of August? Every month brings its own energy, but August is something quite special.
Perhaps it is because we know the year is over halfway through. We feel the rush of deadlines and holidays nearing. We sense that the heat and summer days are soon behind us. We know change is coming.
Change is not always easy. And this time of year can bring stress on so many levels.
But I see August as the perfect time to pause and reassess. It's the time we should pull out our vision board and see where we are, adjust as needed, and realign our goals so that we accomplish what we need and want to by year's end.
That is why I welcome and greet August. It's the perfect time to prepare for change.
With that, let's catch up on what I've been up to this week...
