I just spent five days in California with family this past week, celebrating my cousin's 60th birthday and spending time with some of my oldest relatives.

My aunt and uncle flew me down so I could be there, which was a gift in itself. I got precious time with my aunt, whose memory is fading, and visited another uncle in the hospital as he faces some diabetes-related complications. He was so surprised to see me and SO happy to have visitors. I loved seeing him smile, huge. ❤️

I've been contemplating faith a lot lately. I'm not particularly religious, and “just have faith” has always been a little too abstract for the part of me that wants to understand what that actually means. 😂 How do I feel faith when life feels uncertain? And how do I practice it when fear and worry are very real?

Still figuring that out. BUT this week, I got to love people, receive love, make someone smile, celebrate another year of life, and be grateful for another day of my own. And, I was present for it all.

For now, I think that's part of the answer. 💜

I've had some significant financial and personal setbacks this year, and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't still carrying some resentment about a few of them.

This week, forgiveness came up twice for me, first in a conversation and then, almost on cue, in one of my Brave Thinking lessons.
And I realized something: I can't keep focusing my energy on the life I'm trying to create while also giving so much of it to what I wish had happened differently.

That doesn't mean what happened was okay, or that deciding to forgive magically makes the hurt, anger or disappointment go away. For me, forgiveness is a practice right now. It's noticing the resentment when it comes up, and being willing to loosen my grip on it, bless and release.

Awareness, willingness, and practice... That's movement in the right direction. 💜

Okay, this house is GORGEOUS. 😍 And I get to show it off TODAY!

Come see me in Bothell from 12:30–3:00 TODAY (10/3) and prepare to fall a little bit in love.

I fell instantly in love with the archways. Then there's the huge primary suite, walk-in closet, beautifully updated bathrooms and that big soaking tub (I could have used that after my 200 hours of dancing last week!)

My favorite part? The backyard. 🌳
Surrounded by trees with a huge deck and covered gazebo I'm dreaming of the outdoor "office" days, long dinners, summer parties with friends.

All of this tucked into a quiet Canyon Park cul-de-sac, with shopping, restaurants and parks nearby, easy access to I-405, and less than an hour from downtown Seattle. (i love a cul-de-sac!)

📍 23004 12th Dr SE, Bothell
💰 $1,200,000
🛏 4 bedrooms + bonus | 🛁 2.5 baths

Come see it in person. I have a feeling the photos only tell half of the story! 😉

Sometimes the stories we tell ourselves don't hold up quite as well when we look at the evidence. 😂

This weekend I attended DreamBuilder Live, a three-day personal development deep dive into the principles, strategies and practical tools that help us create a bigger vision for our lives, including taking a good look at the beliefs that might be getting in the way.

One of the stories I uncovered was around belonging. There are certain rooms I can imagine walking into where, instead of just being myself, I start wondering if I'll measure up. Will I know what to say? Will I fit in? Will everyone else somehow know I don't belong there?

Pretty funny considering that just days earlier, I spent four days working an Amazon event with 7,000 people from all over the world. 🌎 Put me in front of a DJ, give me the job of welcoming in thousands of strangers, and apparently I'm right at home. 😂 💃🏻

So I've been sitting with that contradiction.

Maybe confidence isn't owning the room. It's trusting we don't have to shrink to fit in.

I'm definitely still practicing this one. 💜

Sometimes I feel like I spend a lot of time getting through things. Whether it's solving the problem, making the next decision, or figuring out what comes next, it can start to feel automatic.

We can get so focused on making it through the hard season that we forget to notice when something good is already growing.

But, we don't have to wait until we have everything figured out before we enjoy what's here.

So, as Fall comes in, I'm trying to pay a little more attention to the harvest...to the people I love, to music that makes me move with joy, the cooler mornings, and those chance encounters that leave a smile on my face while I leave one on theirs.

This week has given me plenty of reminders that life doesn't have to be perfect to be good.

So I'm paying attention. 🍂💜

Life is funny. This week I was reminded that I'm not alone.

There are people who love me, believe in me, and are willing to show up when I need a little support. And for someone who's pretty accustomed to figuring things out on her own, receiving that support is its own kind of practice.

I don't have everything figured out. There are still things I'm working through currently and answers I don't have yet.

But this week, abundance showed up as generosity, friendship, family, and people saying "I've got you."

And this morning, even the sunrise in the Western sky greeted me in my favorite colors. 💜🩷

I'll take it.

Your hobbies called, They want more space! 😂

This Highland Park home is NOW PRICED AT $525,000, and the backyard alone is pretty special.

This move-in-ready renovated 1-bed, 1-bath home has a large fenced yard (dog run!), detached workshop and a full unfinished basement with laundry and tons of storage.

But the workshop and yard are the real showstoppers. There’s room for gardening, bike projects, weekend tinkering, hosting friends, or growing into. Slap on a DADU and you've got rental income coming in! 🤑

📍 8848 13th Ave SW, Seattle

Come peek inside, wander the yard and picture all the fun things you could do with this space! Message me for mre details or a private tour.

📅 Labor Day morning, I stepped outside and my neighborhood was QUIET.

No construction, garbage trucks or *that guy* roaring his motorcycle down the street. Just a beautiful morning and and unexpected sense of calm.

And then, I NOTICED it. The quiet. The serenity.

That felt especially good because there are plenty of things in my life that aren't figured out right now. I'm looking for part-time work, again, to supplement my real estate business. There are bills to pay, business and life decisions to make, new routines I'm still trying to build... you know, life, lifing. 😂

None of that magically disappeared. But for just a little while, it was quiet. It was peaceful. And I savored it.

I'm so glad I recognized that moment and stopped long enough to enjoy the fact that my ears weren't ringing and my nervous system was calm, even if just for a minute.

It's the gentle reminder that don't have to wait until the job is found, the bills are paid, the decision is made, or everything feels settled before we're allowed to enjoy what's good right now.

Sometimes peace sneaks in before we've figured everything out.

Thank goodness. ❤️

18 years later, the b***y shakes are staying put. The schedule? That’s getting a remix. 💃🎶

Beginning the week of September 7, I’m still bringing the music, the sweat, the questionable singing and ALL the Zumba joy to the West Seattle YMCA… But now you'll find me on NEW days and times!

Same energy. Same Reema-craziness, and same likelihood that I’ll yell something ridiculous while you’re trying to remember which foot you’re on. 😜

➡️ And to my Tuesday night crew and all my after-work regulars: I’m going to miss seeing you in our usual time slot! ❤️ I hope one of these new times works and we get to keep shaking it together. And if not, you can still catch me at a group event or find me here on social.

Come dance with me! And, please stay in touch. 💃❤️💃❤️
