Changing your life doesn’t always have to be a h Changing your life doesn’t always have to be a huge transformation or a complete 180 of your life 

It can also be those tiny, everyday moments 

Your daily decisions, the choices that quietly shape who you become

In #hospice and #palliativecare, we first figure out what’s most important to a patient/family and then make recommendations on how to proceed with those values in mind 

The same goes for your life 

So keep asking yourself 

“Does this choice take me closer to or further away from the person I want to be?”

Every time you choose alignment over avoidance, you’re casting a vote for the future version of you

➡️Going to the gym today means you’re investing in a healthier future you

➡️Making a new friend means you’re investing in being more connected in the future 

➡️Engaging in creative pursuits means you’re investing in nourishing your soul 

Your current self probably won’t want to. But your future self, the one you’re super proud of? 

They SHOW UP 

We lift weights in the gym but forget that change and transformation is also a muscle that requires repetition to strengthen 

Now go put in the work 😊💪

some observations and questions to consider when i some observations and questions to consider when it comes to recognizing and managing emotions like anger
Not knowing how to feel and regulate my emotions n Not knowing how to feel and regulate my emotions nearly cost me my life 

When we grow up in environments where it feels unsafe to express emotions, we learn to protect ourselves—sometimes in ways that end up hurting us more

We deny. We numb. We intellectualize
We shop, scroll, or stay busy so we don’t have to feel

I did all of that. For YEARS

And what I didn’t realize was that pushing down the pain it also dulled my ability to feel joy

I couldn’t fully experience all the wonderful things in life because I was always bracing for the crash

The truth is: emotions don’t disappear just because we ignore them

They live in the body. They show up in our health, our relationships, and our sense of purpose

Healing starts when we stop avoiding and start listening

Otherwise, it’s like living life with the bumpers on—safe, controlled, but disconnected

You might never get hurt… but you’ll never really know if you’re living either

Thanks to @lzaidane and the entire Future Caucus team for putting this great event together and for having me!! 🙏😊
I’ve watched too many people die to believe that I’ve watched too many people die to believe that the labels we cling to—race, class, politics, status—mean anything in the end

None of it matters when you’re facing death

Know what does matter? 
➡️How you treated people
➡️Whether you chose compassion over judgment
➡️Whether you saw others as fully human, even when their life didn’t look like yours

The truth is: if you’re not experiencing certain struggles, that’s a form of privilege

And if you’re not using that privilege to make the world better—why not?

We don’t get to stay on this planet forever

And if we don’t keep talking about these things—really talking—more people will keep suffering in silence. Misunderstood. Ignored. Dehumanized.

So speak up. Call it out. Choose empathy

Because at the end of the day, we all end up in the same place

So can we please try to find our collective humanity and use it to lift others up instead of tearing them down
