“The Threshold of Discernment”
Happy Monday friends!
I hope your June has been nourishing for your mental body, soul body, and spirit. It’s a threshold month to the “next”.
As June comes to a close, I find myself standing on, and in, that threshold…reflecting.
The beginning of 2026 arrived quietly. January and February felt slower than I expected, almost as though life was gently inviting me to catch my breath after everything that unfolded in 2025. Looking back now, I realize those early months weren’t stagnant at all, they were sacred. I was shedding old skin, making room for something new before I could even see what it would become.
Then March arrived.
Not so much like the gentle lamb we often imagine, but with the bold energy of a lion. Doors began opening. Opportunities appeared. New relationships formed. I slowly began meeting a version of myself that had been waiting patiently for years; a woman who had quietly grown through every challenge and was finally ready to step fully into her purpose.
I followed my heart.
It was not about creating a plan, it was more like leaning in, doing the scary things, and trusting the current. I simply kept saying yes to what felt aligned and allowed life to carry me where it needed to.
Along the way I realized I was never walking alone. I was guided by faith, by extraordinary people, by years of experience building businesses and communities, and by the quiet wisdom that has always lived within me.
The Bloom Center reopened with new life.
The Bloom Group continued to grow.
New collaborations emerged.
New community began to form.
“If you build it, they will come.” (Field of Dreams, one of my most favorite movies!)
And they did.
As beautiful as all of that was, June offered me something even more valuable.
Discernment.
Somewhere between all of the opportunities, I noticed the spinning plates. As entrepreneurs, and honestly, as women, we can easily convince ourselves that every opportunity deserves our attention. But not every open door is our doorway.
June invited me to pause.
To ask where my energy was flowing.
To notice what filled me and what quietly depleted me.
To gather the pieces of myself that had become scattered and lovingly bring them back home.
Someone recently shared a simple piece of wisdom that has stayed with me:
When your mind starts making decisions, let your heart speak first.
Then allow your heart and your mind to meet in the center, that beautiful place where clarity lives.
I often picture it as the infinity symbol.
The inhale.
The exhale.
The ebb.
The flow.
The place where our nervous system settles and our truth becomes easier to hear.
And somehow, here we are.
The final Monday of June.
The halfway point of another year.
Time always seems to move faster than we expect.
Yet instead of rushing ahead into July, trying to predict a future I haven’t even met yet, I’m choosing something different.
I’m choosing this moment.
We can certainly create plans.
We can dream.
We can prepare.
But we cannot live inside imagined success any more than we should live inside imagined fear.
So much of what steals our peace is simply an illusion of “what if.”
Our work is to remain present.
To discern.
To trust.
To remember.
The stories that brought us here deserve our gratitude, but they no longer deserve to define us.
Don’t allow the ink of yesterday to rise back to the surface of today’s page.
Honor your past.
Thank it.
Then continue writing your story.
As we enter July beneath this beautiful Full Moon, I find myself releasing what no longer belongs in this season.
The overthinking.
The monkey mind.
The unnecessary noise.
Anything that no longer serves the woman I am becoming.
Today, I invite you to do the same.
Find a quiet moment.
Place your hand over your heart.
Ask yourself one simple question:
What is serving me best in this moment?
Then listen.
Not to the second thought.
Not to the overthinking.
Listen to the very first whisper.
Your heart usually knows.
And finally…
Remember who you are.
Let your I AM meet you exactly where you are today.
