Hello Reader,

I hope you’ve been feeling the ripple effects of our 5-Day Release and Reconnect Series.
Whether you joined every day or just dipped your toes in, I hope you discovered that tiny shifts create big energy. ✨

This week, I’m diving into a topic that touched a deep chord during my recent workshop — boundaries that stick.
Not the rigid kind, but the kind that help us show up with love, clarity, and energy for what truly matters.

In my latest blog, I share how one sentence from my daughter changed how I think about love and presence — and how learning to listen to my body helped me redefine what “yes” really means.

Read my latest blog:

Inside, you’ll also find a link to download the Boundaries & Tools PDF, which includes the Boundary Awareness Quiz and a few of my favorite reflection practices....nonetheless I have included the PDF here just in case you do not want to read the blog - but I recommend reading the story first. 😉

🍫Recipe of the Week: Turtle Candies (a crowd favorite!)

Okay, confession — these aren’t exactly The Vibrant Sage approved in the health department... but they’re pure happiness on a plate!
I brought them to a meeting last week, and let’s just say there wasn’t a single one left.

Ingredients (for 10 turtles)

• 50 whole pecans
• 10 soft caramel candies (unwrapped)
• ½ cup chocolate chips (guessing since I didn’t measure)
• Optional: a sprinkle of sea salt

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Arrange pecans in small clusters (like little turtle “legs”) on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
3. Toast pecans for about 4 minutes, just until fragrant.
4. Place one caramel candy on each cluster and return to the oven for 6–8 minutes, until the caramel softens (watch carefully!).
5. Let cool.
6. Melt chocolate chips in the microwave, stir until smooth, and spoon over the caramel.
7. Sprinkle with salt if desired and cool completely.

That’s it — start to finish in under 15 minutes. They will disappear fast!
⚠️Warning: I’m not responsible for any dental issues from chewy caramel — enjoy responsibly! 😄

🌴A Quick Hello from Breathless Riviera Cancun!

As you’re reading this, I’m soaking up the sunshine and sharing yoga, breathwork, sound healing, and aqua spin at Breathless Riviera Cancun.
It’s been such a fun and energizing week connecting with travelers from around the world — each one seeking a little more balance, laughter, and inner calm.

You can follow along with my daily reflections and behind-the-scenes moments here:

And speaking of balance...🌺
I can’t wait to bring this same energy home for our upcoming Release & Renew Retreat on November 16th — a beautiful afternoon of yoga, breathwork, intention-setting, and connection.
There’s just one room left, so if you’ve been thinking about joining, now’s the time!

💫Tiny Reflection

Healthy boundaries don’t push people away — they bring us closer to what (and who) matters most.
🌿When you know what’s important to your highest good, your yes becomes stronger, and your no becomes peaceful.

Take a few minutes this week to reflect:

• What are you saying yes to that no longer aligns?
• What is your body telling you that your mind might be ignoring?

Then, grab a cozy drink, read the blog, and explore the free PDF tools to help you reconnect with your energy and vision.

With love, laughter, and a little caramel,
