As Sunday night rolls around, marking the end of another hectic week filled with rehearsals and performances, I reflect on the whirlwind that was hell week. While challenging, it’s always worth it all to see my youngest shine on stage, her passion and joy radiating from every performance.

This week was particularly demanding, as hell weeks often are. Between juggling schedules, managing last-minute costume adjustments, and ensuring everything runs smoothly, it’s no wonder exhaustion sets in. Yet, amidst the chaos, witnessing the culmination of weeks of hard work and dedication creates a sense of fulfillment.

As we wrap up this production, I can’t help but look ahead to the next one looming on the horizon. There are just under three weeks until the next round of tech and dress rehearsals begins. Then there’s a brief reprieve before diving back into the frenzy of production season next fall. Despite the inevitable challenges that lie ahead, I’m reminded of the joy and pride that comes with watching my daughter pursue her passion.

Amid the hustle and bustle, my daughter surprised me by expressing interest in joining me for the upcoming 30-day meditation challenge. It’s heartening to see her recognize the importance of carving out moments for self-care and reflection amidst the chaos of daily life. I have a feeling this challenge will provide her with a much-needed opportunity to center herself and strengthen our bond as we embark on this journey together.

As we prepare to embrace the tranquility and mindfulness of the meditation challenge, I’m filled with anticipation for the moments of stillness and clarity that lie ahead. Despite the busyness of life, there’s solace in knowing that amidst the mayhem, there are always moments of peace waiting to be discovered.

The 30-Day Meditation Challenge will start tomorrow. There will be posts on the main page, and there will be guided videos and scripts available for paid subscribers.
