The Tiny Ritual That Brings You Back to Yourself

You don’t need hours to feel like yourself again.

Hi y’all,

Most of what’s pulling us apart is that we forget to check in with ourselves regularly.

We’re the ones who need our own presence the most.

We’re so good at showing up for everyone else: the boss, the kids, the deadlines, and the friends who are hanging on by a thread.

Who’s showing up for you?

I see it with the working parents I coach, who feel like they’re holding the entire world together. I see it with the ambitious single women who tell me, “I’m doing everything right, so why do I feel like I’m disappearing?”

I’ve experienced both feelings - like I’m holding the world together while feeling like I’m disappearing.

What saved me wasn’t another giant plan. It was one small daily ritual. A simple practice of coming back to myself, no matter how chaotic life felt.

This week, we’re focusing on tiny, daily rituals that help you stay present with yourself, so you can breathe, feel, and actually enjoy the life you’re building.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

• Why most presence practices fail (and how to avoid that trap).

• A 3-minute ritual you can start tonight.

• Real-world examples of self-awareness in action.

Let’s go.
