It’s Not About “What” You Do
Daylight savings time (speeding the clocks ahead an hour every spring) is always a ride. Every year it feels exactly like stepping out of a long movie into broad daylight and wondering—“where the heck am I?!”
Last week the time change took us by surprise.
We didn’t realize it was happening until suddenly our phones and clocks clashed Sunday morning. All week we struggled to get out the door. By the time I had my daughter settled in childcare each day, I was literally running to my office.
Normally I like to meditate before I start my workday, it centers me and helps me get clear on what’s important.
But last week my meditations didn’t feel nearly as centering. In fact, forcing myself to sit, some days I felt even more frazzled at the end.
That’s when I realized what the problem was. I had forgotten one of the most important guidelines of being alive—it’s not actually about what you do, but how you do it.
So I switched it up. Instead of forcing myself to meditate, I asked myself—what can I do in these fifteen minutes before I start my work day to help me connect into my “how” again?
And it radically changed not only my clarity, but my capacity and joy for the day ahead. By the end of the week I felt excited to meditate again AND it inspired me to sit down and record this week’s podcast.

This episode is a comforting reminder that, at the end of the day, how you’re caring for yourself as you move through this world is one of the greatest things you can do for this planet.
(Even as you continue to do all the brave, heroic things you do every day to keep walking towards healing. Because you ARE doing all those things, dear one.)
You are the gift you’re meant to bring to this planet. And your “how,” fully felt, can shift the axis of this world towards healing.
P.S. I’m getting ready to announce something that has literally been NINE years in the making next week. You should see my altar space, it’s got all the cards, all the crystals, all the intentions. Releasing this into the world now feels like such a huge step forward for my own soul. And I cannot wait to see who is going to go on this journey with me… Stay tuned. 🕊️
