My family and I are rounding out day #24 of our COVID-19 quarantine, and since we live in Virginia, we know that we're in this thing for the long haul - until June 10th. I do appreciate how slowing down and simplifying have really brought the small things of life to light.

One small thing that just made my week was my Beautycounter delivery that just arrived. Getting packages right now feels wonderful, but getting clean beauty packages? That's next level loveliness. You better believe that I have a few hours of pampering ahead of me, thanks to Beautycounter.

I suggest that you might want to do the same!

Go ahead, indulge in something lovely for yourself.

HOW CAN CONFLICT LEAD TO CONFIDENCE?
Conflict > Conversations > Communication > Connection > Confidence
10 FUNDAMENTALS ON HOW TO HAVE DIFFICULT CONVERSATIONS

Value bravery. (Being emotionally brave is more impressive than being physically brave.) 
Remember conflict leads to connection.
Honor other people's perspectives.
Seek to understand and not always be understood.
Release expectations (let go of trying to control their feelings and reactions)

Speak from the heart and be humble.
Listen as well as you talk.
Seek connection, not your own resolution.
Define a purpose (objective to be transparent, to express oneself, etc.)

HOW TO HAVE HARD CONVERSATIONS WITH YOURSELF

These are perhaps the most important conversations to be having in the first place.
You don't have to go these alone - use prayer, and your journal to guide you.
Braindump onto paper - and stop using the excuse that you're worried that someone will look at what you write; y'all people are not interested in what you're thinking about, you're safe.
Pay attention to your own avoidances and what you are resisting.
We all run away in our own ways - seek emotional maturity enough to look at what is actually going on within yourself.
Each month I like to ask myself - what do I need to modify? What am I allowing or permitting that I need to pay more attention to? How can I be a better wife? How can I be kinder to myself? How can I be a more engaged and patient mother? How can I be a more present and encouraging human in my circles and comings and goings?
For me one of the hardest hard conversations ...
