Mothering Yourself
New Blog Post Description
Your soul story is the core of who you are, and you may not even be aware of it. Oh, but I promise you it's there. Operating under the surface in your subconscious. Acting as your personal GPS guidance system and helping guide you on your journey through life.
April, known as Stress Awareness Month since 1992, reminds us that stress — both helpful and harmful — is a constant part of modern life. In the wake of the pandemic, everyone has been impacted, and as we build a new normal, it’s essential to distinguish between motivating stress and overwhelming stress. Managing stress isn’t just about coping; it’s about reconnecting with your soul and sharing your unique story. Several soulful strategies can help: moving your body through exercise or mindful walking can release built-up tension and ground your spirit. Writing — especially journaling your thoughts, fears, and dreams — offers a powerful emotional release and a pathway to self-discovery. Feeding your mind through learning new things also fuels personal growth and resilience. Most importantly, sharing your life stories — your struggles, joys, lessons, and memories — honors your journey and inspires others. Storytelling, once the heart of human connection, still holds the power to heal and bring people together. By telling your Soul Story, you not only manage your own stress but also offer light and hope to a world that needs it. This April, the invitation is to do more than survive stress: transform it. Let your body move, let your words flow, and let your experiences shine. Your story matters, and the world is waiting to hear it.

In honor of Black History Month, I’d like to share the story of my history with a woman who cast a giant shadow, but barely stood less than five feet tall. I proudly called her my teacher as well as my friend. She was also the reason this Minnesota born Scandinavian had the privilege to give testimony at a Baptist gathering. And the first woman of color who had such a significant influence on me.
