Over here, we're officially into the final quarter of our virtual school year (omg we made it) + the boys' golf season started this week (yay, outdoors!) + we're tentatively making summer vacation plans (hello Chicago and Devils Den Park)...the hope is STRONG for a post-pandemic world in the McCormick household!…
Let Go of These Anxiety Myths
The Power of "Yes, And..."
Talk to Yourself & Mean It
COVID Anxiety
Living Through Thoughts
Have you ever had the sensation of living life through a plate glass window, like there's a thick barrier between the full, rich, sensory experience of LIFE and, well, *you*?
