Sisters: Treat. Yo. Self.
It's a Dumpster fire out there—why not do yourself a kindness? Book something today to look forward to in the coming days/weeks/months?
Join me and a tribe of badass women for a #retreat Sept 10–13 in #Ireland.
We'll face fear, conjure courage, create space to be brave & kind.
We won't be bungeeing off a 300-foot-tall suspension bridge, but we'll be facing down fears of all sorts, doing things that scare us (at least a little bit), summoning our daring inner goddesses, having heaps of fun while we feed our souls in community.
Come alone. Bring a friend or a group.
Join us!
Book today to join us in Ireland in September.
Space is limited.

Frankel to Rubio: "It is crazy that you want to let people in from South Africa because they can assimilate, while you're throwing out hundreds of thousands of people who have already assimilated and that are important parts of our economy and family life."
A highschool senior, a pregnant woman, and a man with Stage Three cancer. These are the people I met in Delaney Hall. When DHS tells you they are only arresting the worst of the worst, they're lying. These are everyday people kept in inhumane conditions with our tax dollars.
Yes - this is our constitutional crisis in a nutshell. Mullin says he will pick and choose which court orders to follow based on whether he likes them or not.
That's a reciple for the total destruction of our democracy. That's totalitarianism.
I stood at this pool, at both monuments and saw both reflections…
He’s a God damn idiot, as are the fools that support him. The “Reflection Pool” wasn’t designed by American architect Henry Bacon a hundred years ago to look like a swimming pool. It’s designed to have a darkened characteristics that has reflective qualities to reflect the monuments.
That way, the Washington Monument is reflective to you when at the Lincoln Memorial, and when at the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial is reflective to you.
It’s designed to enhance the grandeur of monuments, create an illusion of reflection, and inclusion of expansive space of unity.
He’s a tacky vulgar person that vulgarizes everything he touches. America isn’t becoming great, it’s becoming vulgar.

Pope Leo in April sent a letter to cardinals ahead of this month's consistory.
Under suggestions for further reflection: the “need to reassess the effectiveness of ecclesial communication, including at the level of the Holy See, from a more explicitly missionary perspective.”
After two months of sustained attacks on Pope Leo XIV, Donald Trump trails the first U.S.-born pontiff by fifty-four points on net favorability.
Trump picked this fight, and Leo barely engaged. Even so, it's the president who has lost ground during it.
His standing with Catholics and, more broadly, the American people has never been lower. https://t.co/XcFbw4WspM
Montse was my direct boss for the past four years and green-lit my documentaries from places including Iraq, Mongolia, South Sudan, Papua New Guinea, Algeria, Lebanon, and Turkey. Under Montse, we covered everything from the reopening of Notre Dame in Paris to scandals at the Vatican Bank, produced long-form interviews for both online and TV, and so much more. I will miss her at EWTN, but I think this is a fantastic appointment!
@DavidDark@godgrrl [nods] There is a Christian project that aims at incarceration, and a Christian project that aims at liberation. Everything else is just public relations.
The Obama Presidential Center campus has "turned a pleasant but quiet corner of Jackson Park into one of the best urban spaces in the city, maybe second only to Millennium Park," writes Lee Bey. https://t.co/oswQUbt7Ph
Leen Hijaz, valedictorian at her high school in North Carolina, said the following in her graduation speech:
"Before I leave the stage, I have one last thing to say. Every single person here has a voice; we have the privilege to use it when millions around the world are struggling and suffering to be heard. Whether it’s the millions suffering in Palestine, Sudan, Congo, Afghanistan and so many other countries around the world, or families being torn apart by ICE. These are not just an issue here; they are happening there, they’re happening right here as I speak. My point is, we’re not given a voice to stay silent."
Corey Robin, a political theorist at Brooklyn College, writes: "The mere mention of Palestine—maybe ICE, too—sent the high school principal, Melissa Moore, hurtling across the stage to seize the microphone from Hijaz, and stop her from saying these unapproved words.
Just look at this photograph: A young Muslim woman, speaking out, and a desperate, terrified principal trying to shut her down, lest the student say something unauthorized, disapproved, discordant with the views of an increasingly small clique of government officials and voters.
It's so pathetic. It reads like a comic play by Václav Havel. It looks like the desperate last days of the Soviet Union. I can only hope Hijaz speaks for a generation that will, one day, sweep all this garbage into the dustbin of history".

1. There were no exams yesterday.
2. Stephen will be in full school uniform for exams.
