At a little coffee shop...

We sat across the little bistro table in a gorgeous neighborhood, surrounded by strangers, keys, coffee, phones and our hearts laid out on the table in front of us.

I know your face. I've known your face a long time. But today I saw your heart. You told me your story, you shared your world with me and we laughed and related on so many levels. 

And then you shared your deepest little whisper of the tiny bean thriving inside the safety and love of your tummy. A little surprise. My heart soars.

Your world is now changing in so many ways, and more change is yet to come. I am so honored to get to walk this journey with you. To help your love that is blooming on the inside, find a home on the outside. To create a space for you to feel as cherished, as wanted and as adored as the little spirit growing on the inside. 

This is it. This is life. This is what we teach our children, this is what we discover ourselves. We crack open our selves through and through and pour it all out....a.l.l. of it, the good, the bad, the ugly, the dark, the deep....the dreams, the hopes, the whispers and lay it in the open. We first blush. We want to run. But we want the end result, a life outside the shadows. We finally own it, all of it, a radical acceptance of who we are. And then we scoop it all up and carry it away with us, with a whole new level of respect. What was yucky is polished into the gold that gleams so beautiful after refinement.
