Things I’ve been saying to little me:

Sweet one! You belong here. And there. And everywhere. Don’t believe anything less.
I love you.
Keep embracing wonder.
Keep your wild!
You can do the thing! Even when it’s hard.
I know. I know.
Keep taking things one moment at a time.
We are together in this. Never alone.
You’re doing great. So amazing!
You need a breather? Rest.
Deep breaths.
Let it out.
Let it go.
Dance? Ok, let’s dance!
We are free. Sometimes we just need to remind ourselves the door is open.
Just walk through it.

Those gremlins — the negative voices that visit from time to time? I welcome them in. But they’re ever more crowded out by the presence of sweet baby Lauren. Wild, cheeky, wonderful, unbound. Free and full of joy.

With her, the colors are brighter. All is more pure. There is abundant goodness in the world. And a bright light within.

As we grow into adults, we often forget where we started. So much of coming back to our souls is about acknowledging our human experience — letting ourselves feel the feelings — and then letting them go. For me, it’s created a hell of a lot more space for happiness.

Little Lauren is my safe space. With her, I am held. There is nothing to fear — only space to grow and play. Have you checked in with your inner child lately? Does she have any wisdom to offer you?

Share your inspo in the comments below. Little Lauren and I will be cheering you on! 👇📣🙌

And if all else fails, be as little Lauren in the last slide: NAKED IS LIFE!

NEW EPISODE! SUBSCRIBE ON SUBSTACK FOR $5/month TO ACCESS NEW CONTENT!
At the age of 19, doctors diagnosed as completely blind in his right eye; the sight in his left eye had deteriorated to 73% as a result of congenital glaucoma. When Carlos was 20 years old, he went through eye surgery — but the operation was not successful. He lost all remaining sight, leaving him with permanent sight loss. A person of deep faith, he constantly reframed this experience of loss into one of abundance, telling himself: “sometimes God removes something you never thought you’d lose, to provide you with something you never thought you’d have.” Before losing his sight, Carlos had responded to school bullying by learning Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (known as BJJ by those who practice the sport), a martial art with similarities to Judo. Despite the onset of his disability, and at the encouragement of his cousin, he continued to learn BJJ…and now competes (frequently winning!) as a black belt. He also became passionate about teaching others living with sight loss, helping them improve their quality of life and confidence in their abilities. He now provides BJJ lessons to the blind community through in Miami, Florida, and reminds us that he knows first-hand what it’s like to live with a feeling of defenselessness after losing one’s sight; with a fear of falling, getting lost, or the vulnerability of potentially being robbed, struggling to find employment, or being abandoned. In his own way, Carlos has given back to his community through his teaching of the Blind Warriors, and inspires others to take their destinies into their own hands, no matter what level of ability they start from.

*** CW/TW: this episode includes discussion of violence, both physical and gun-related, as well as in-depth conversations about abuse, trauma, su***de, drugs, and alcohol addiction. It also includes mention of adoption and body weight, and contains some strong language. ***
---
was born to a hyper-abusive, drug-addicted mother who cut his finger off at four years old…lived with what he calls “a step-father you pray you never have,” and was frequently houseless and living in poverty. A member of the Mormon Church, he was also molested by a fellow parishioner. At the age of 13, he ended up in the custody of a racist grandmother who pushed him into an identity crisis — and quickly turned to drugs and alcohol to survive continuing abuse. “Between the guns, drugs, crime, and poverty…I was facing life as just another statistic,” he shares. Despite being diagnosed with multiple learning disabilities and not graduating high school on time, he found success in corporate America in his early 20s. But the success only made things worse: Michael found himself “morbidly obese,” high and drunk daily, experiencing debilitating panic attacks, rage, and even attempting su***de. And then, he had his Mirror Moment: he found his inner power and chose to do whatever it took to work through his childhood trauma. He says that this is when his life really began. Michael is now the author of the best-selling book Think Unbroken and is a coach, mentor, and educator for adult survivors of child abuse. He spends his time helping other survivors get out of "The Vortex" to become the hero of their own story and take their lives back. Michael hosts the Think Unbroken podcast, teaches at Think Unbroken Academy, and is on a mission to create positive change in the world.

✨NEW EPISODE✨with Lauren Freedman, host of the Uninvisible podcast!

We had the pleasure of interviewing her about her experience with chronic illness, and it was such a special, eye-opening and inspiring conversation. Lauren is a chronic illness warrior who has been through it all. She knows firsthand the challenges that come with navigating the medical world and dealing with less-than-positive experiences. But instead of letting her illness define her, Lauren has used her experience to help others.

As a coach, Lauren provides invaluable support to those with chronic illness who are struggling to navigate the medical system. She understands the frustration and anxiety that can come with chronic illness, and she has the tools and expertise to help her clients overcome these challenges and live their best lives. But what really sets Lauren apart is her infectious positivity and unwavering determination. Despite the challenges she has faced, she remains optimistic and driven, and she is committed to helping others do the same.

If you're struggling with chronic illness and feeling lost in the medical system, you don’t want to miss this conversation. Be sure to check out her podcast for even more inspiration and support!
