The One Thing: Start There

Let’s be honest—healing can feel overwhelming. When you’re tired, depleted, or out of sync, it’s easy to think you need to change everything all at once. Eat better, sleep more, fix your gut, move your body, set boundaries, manage stress, journal more, meditate, take your supplements, declutter your house…

It’s too much. And when it feels like too much, most people either freeze and do nothing—or try to do everything all at once and burn out even faster.

What I’ve learned—personally and professionally—is this:
You don’t have to do it all. You just have to start somewhere.

I like to begin with this question:
“What’s the one thing that, if it shifted, would make the biggest difference in how I feel?”

Try it. Don’t overthink it.
Let your first instinct rise to the surface—that’s your body speaking.

Maybe it’s getting to bed earlier. Drinking water before coffee. Saying no to that one thing you’ve been dreading. Asking for help.

Whatever your “one thing” is, honor it. Let it be small and doable.
Healing is about building trust with yourself again. One choice, one shift, one moment at a time.

You don’t have to fix everything.
You just have to start.

And if you’re not sure where to begin, I can help.
