As many of us know fire can be a very scary, devastating, heart-breaking, life-altering and life-taking force of nature. But something at once so horrible and tragic is also critical for growth and rebirth. There are certain seeds that don’t crack open unless a fire burns over them at just the right temperature. And when that fire is stoked at just the right amount, it keeps us warm and makes delicious s’mores.
When my own inner fire isn’t consistently tended to, I feel bored, heavy, uninspired, and unworthy. On the flip-side, when I was overworked and under nurtured I burned too hot and suffered burnout. It took me the last 3-5 years to recover my health and other areas of life.
If you’ve read my previous post, I recommend each of you look at an area of your life that’s ready to be invested in so that the world can benefit from your unique light and you at your best. I know the biggest advice me of today would give 30-something year old me, would have been to find ways to care for, invest in, and fuel my fire consistently rather than having a single investment in my career. A diversified portfolio isn’t just for stocks or your income streams, it’s for all the key pie slices that make up your best life and work together to make your vision for life real. Everything is symbiotic.
What are some ways you can invest in you and nurture your inner fire?
Below are examples that have worked well for me and are also backed by studies. Many are low cost and take minimal time, but it does help if you commit to doing them consistently (stay tuned for when I talk about the concept of compounding interest in a few weeks). Feel free to download the below and either print out as a reminder or edit directly on your screen in the PDF.
What feels right for you to implement this week and commit to doing as often as possible through the end of the year? What small step done daily will get you closer to your ideal vision for your life? What new action will model amazing behavior to those around you?

Not sure where to begin when working with someone else to nurture you? Below is a list of my most trustworthy go-to’s when I’m in need of more support.
Energy healing / coaching: Joie has helped me get unstuck and create movement in every area of my life. She also has a variety of offerings and price ranges + a mercury retrograde alignment that I simply won’t risk living without.
Health Coaching: Tyler is not only a great friend, but his programs and his results speak for themselves! His knowledge and curiosity create a great container to shift your health in a positive direction.
