That time when Popeye and Bluto stopped fighting over Olive Oyl and realized they’d rather be with each other 😜 happy Halloween!

Here’s your daily bicep heart, I guess. Did I do it right?

Now offering telehealth to Texas, Florida, and Washington State! Email for details.

Just ready for the weekend

Really craving a good camping trip in the Pacific Northwest right now. Need me some trees and water ⛺️🌲

Mamas, don’t let your babies grow up to be rodeo clowns. Or however the song goes.

Playing around with handstands at the gym is totally a part of leg day, right?

Happy Biceptember or something 💪

"What's the bravest thing you've ever said?" asked the boy. "Help," said the Horse. Charlie Mackesy Even as a therapist, there are times I need help. I have my own therapist, and if things feel too heavy I sometimes need medication assistance. There's no shame in needing help.

Back home

We found an inflatable trampoline on the side of the road in Iceland so we had to take advantage 🤸‍♂️

"You are not a burden. You have a burden, which by definition is too heavy to carry alone." I like the belief that the first sign of human civilization was a healed femur 15,000 years ago. Someone was injured and someone stayed behind to help. It’s human to share the burden.

“Life doesn't make any sense without interdependence. We need each other, and the sooner we learn that the better for us all.” - Erik Erikson I disagree with those who say we shouldn’t need anyone. We are meant to rely on each other, to support each other. That isn’t weakness.

"Healing takes time, and asking for help is a courageous step." - Mariska Hargitay I feel like asking for help is one of the bravest things someone can do. It takes vulnerability and bravery, and in my opinion, is never a sign of weakness.

“You don’t have to control your thoughts. You just have to stop letting them control you.” – Dan Millman.    How I see it, we are not our thoughts, we are how we react to our thoughts and what we choose to do with them.
