Excerpt from Blog: "There’s a lot of 'hats' that Jen wears, and these just contribute to her beautiful, complex layers. She says that she is still working on discovering them, but it is a lifelong journey for most of us; there’s always something new to learn about yourself. As we get older, we also find more layers that we may have never thought of before."Ways to Engage: What are some layers you’ve been happy to uncover? What are some you’ve been disappointed to uncover? What were the reasons behind these emotions? Looking back, how has it affected your journey by discovering these …

**Mention of Sexual Assault briefly (in regards to PTSD)Blog Excerpt: Vashti used the analogy of putting a bandaid over a wound but not getting down to the root cause of the problem. We can say we’re fine and heal ourselves for a short period of time, but that isn’t digging deep enough to understand why it happened in the first place. Without understanding the true cause of our emotions or physical ailments, then they will keep returning.Ways to Engage: Think of an example of when you continued saying you were fine even when you were falling apart inside—we all have those moments.

Excerpt from Blog: Even though this happens to everyone, we don’t tend to talk about when it’s time to pivot your why. We talk a lot about what our why is currently, but we don’t tend to look at the past or future. It’s crucial to identify our current why of course, but no matter where you are in your journey, you are not alone.Ways to Engage: Think about what your why/value/cause was 5 or 10 years ago. Think about what it is now. Try making a physical list that you can compare, look back on, or use as a reference. This can help you determine if you’ve grown over the years, what g…

Excerpt from Blog: "Life is exhausting, and you can’t be expected to do everything while still taking care of yourself. Other people’s opinions are not as important as your boundaries, and I’m glad Limor took some time out of this segment to remind everyone that we’re all doing our best." Ways to Engage: What are some misconceptions or stereotypes you hear from women or about women? What about wives or mothers? Look at these phrases and identify if they’re positive or negative, and where you’ve heard these sayings from. The things we say and the stereotypes we enforce can negati…

Blog Excerpt: "Whatever project Johnny decides to take on, whether it be designing a website or illustrating for a brand, he has to feel connected to the work. I can understand from a creative perspective if you’re not connected to what you’re working on, it will either take forever to complete or not be the highest quality you’re capable of (or even both). That’s why Melissa, Johnny, and I decided he was the perfect fit for designing our book; he had a deep connection with it from the start, and we knew he understood the message we wanted to share with the world."

She grew up to defy teachers who questioned her English skills by winning numerous poetry and short story awards in her youth. As an avid reader, she spent her teen years exploring New York City for poetry slams and book readings. Being…

When Ann was 19, she woke one morning to find her mother dead in her bathroom.  Twenty years later the tears from that trauma were still just under the surface.

Ann has found that seeking out our truth, what we truly feel, and accepting those feelings, is the key to inner peace.    Ann Hince is an author, a public speaker and a spiritual teacher.
