A tent, some flowers, and a journey back to ourselves

Remember those flower remedies we explored? I never told you but they became my lifeline when the universe gave me a crash course in resilience.
Here's what happened...
It's 2020, and I'm living in a tent in my backyard. No, not a glamping adventure – it was my radical solution to severe mold illness from our water-damaged home. There I was, a doctor treating patients by day and a mom helping with high school geometry by night, all while trying to heal in a tent beneath the stars.
Sounds crazy, right? But here's the thing – this unexpected detour taught me more about resilience than any textbook ever could. I had to dig deep and find new ways to adapt. One of my unlikely allies? The Bach Flower remedies we've talked about before. They became a healthy habit, helping me face each day with a bit more courage and a lot more hope.
This wild ride got me thinking about you. About all of us, really. How we're all navigating our own storms, often silently.
It's why I'm starting something new – a weekly note I'm calling the Resiliency Retreat. It's less about dramatic turnarounds and more about small, meaningful shifts.
Each week, I'll share a bit of what I've learned – about flower essences, and stories about bouncing back and finding strength in the most unlikely places. I’ll share practical tips for resilience and include a downloadable worksheet so you can put these new strategies into practice.
And I look forward to hearing from you! What aspect of resilience do you find most challenging? Is it bouncing back from setbacks, staying positive, or something else entirely?
I'd love for you to join me on this journey. No tents required, I promise.
Warmly,
