Growth Reflection

by Dr. Tonya Caylor
Jun 03, 2025

Here's an exercise that I hope you find useful.

Think of either past examples that you would define as your best self. Or think of the self you'd like to aspire to be.

Now, which of your strengths are you exhibiting? What happens internally for you? How does it impact your relationships? What's one small thing you can begin to practice to uplevel your day to day self?

(Caution - Please only do this from a place of abundance. Ie. No negative self-talk allowed. This is not to be weaponized to beat yourself up - just to continue to find areas and ways to grow.)

As she began weighing the pros and cons, another member of our small group chimed in. β€œYou know wh...
What Renovation Taught Me About Teams
My husband and I are back in the messy middle of building. We are not a strangers to it. We completely renovated a historic home over seven years and our Alaskan home over ten, with my husband acting as contractor, doing the work he enjoyed and subbing the rest out. And now, we’re building remotely, which is a whole new layer of complexity. There are a lot of decisions, obstacles, differences o...
