Hey there Reader!

Whether your holiday week includes watermelon slices, smoky grills, sun-warmed skin, or hiding in the laundry room “accidentally” scrolling TikTok, I’ve got a lil’ something for you before the fireworks pop.

Because if you’re anything like me, the start of July has you wondering,

“Wait… how are we already halfway through the year?”

That’s why I pulled together a fast-as-a-firecracker checklist you can swipe into your day.

A soft reset.

A permission slip.

A re-alignment with the version of you you’re still becoming.

5 Ideas to Make Small Shifts, & Build Big Energy

(Take what you need. Leave the rest.)

❊ Text Yourself One Truth

“I’m proud of how I handled ______ today.”

Or: “Even though ______ feels heavy, I’m still showing up.”

Why it works: You become the witness and the validator, rewriting the feedback loop from the inside out.

❊ The 3-Breath Reset

Inhale what you need.

Exhale what’s not yours to carry.

Sit in the stillness for three seconds.

Why it works: Regulates the nervous system and rebuilds your foundation from presence.

❊ Name One Thing You Did Right

Say it out loud. Write it down. Claim it.

Why it works: Interrupts the all-or-nothing pattern and lays a new neural path toward self-trust.

❊ Clear One Small Surface

Wipe the counter. Close the 12 tabs. Unsubscribe from one energy-sucking email.

Why it works: Physical clarity creates space for mental rewire.

❊ Set One Tiny Boundary

Say no. Or delay your yes. Even if it’s just a mental, “I don’t owe a response right now.”

Why it works: Boundaries build internal architecture, and remind you that you get to choose.

You don’t need to change everything.

You just need one moment of alignment.

May your iced coffee be strong, your peace protected, and your inner voice loud enough to lead the way.

With steadiness,
