The Power of Perspective

I was sitting down having coffee last week with a friend whom I admire for so many reasons I could never count them all. She is incredibly bright, talented, insightful and sincere to name a few. On this particular day, it was her insight that had my attention. She was telling me a story of how she was weeding her

Oh Well Instead of What If

One of the things I love about my practice is working with people of all ages. I work with everyone from children to elderly, and there really isn’t an age or stage I prefer. What makes our life journey so interesting to me is that we are constantly changing, growing, evolving from one stage of life to the next. We

Working Meditation

I can’t honestly tell you how often I’ve started, dropped off, and then restarted my meditation practice. I still remember sitting in an Esoteric Healing class on the edge of Lake Harriet listening to a younger woman than me at the time talk about how meditation for her, was like breath. She talked passionately about how she needs it every

It’s Nice to Meet You Again

When I heard him say it, my first words out loud were, “who is this?” I was on the phone with my Dad last week and he asked how the fish were biting up North. My husband and I had been eyeball deep in a building project for a few weekends, working full time during the week, so there had

Creative Is a Feeling – We All Have the Ability

I’ve been working with a particular client for some time now. A wonderful woman in transition from work life into retirement. She is a go getter; brilliant, successful, well respected and well liked, funny, caring, the list goes on. As part of the wisdom being delivered to her over time has been an ongoing conversation about creativity. She has always

Courageous Conversations: Clear is Kind

During a conversation a couple years ago, I heard a friend of mine make the statement, “clear is kind”.  What she meant by this is when we communicate clearly, even in challenging conversations, saying exactly what we mean is the kindest thing we can do. So often people shirk away from having hard conversations because they’re afraid they’re going to

Searching for My Passion

I have the incredible gift in my life to be surrounded by amazing people, lots of them women, who are absolutely passionate about their lives and what they do. When I say passionate, I don’t mean like yeah, they kinda like it. I mean they jump out of bed and run cheering into nearly everyday super psyched to get at

Not Quite a Gift, Yet

A few days ago I was having a conversation with a coaching friend of mine and she was talking about her take-a-ways from this COVID- 19 situation. While I recognize there is incredible hardship in all of this, I also know that if we can look beyond our fears. There are incredible gifts available as well. As we were talking,

What is Our Problem With Easy?

Zoom coffee dates have become a thing for me the last several weeks of distancing. I’m an introvert by nature, so I’m sure you’ve heard me say that I am having a perfectly delightful time working remotely. Last week I was having coffee with a dear friend of mine who I always find so inspirational and up lifting. We always

Winds of Change, They Are a Blowin’

Some of you may know this, but each Monday for the past several weeks I have hosted something called Meditation Monday. It is a Facebook live event at 7pm central time. The videos are on my Facebook page if you’re so inclined to view the ones from the past, or join in for the live event each week. There is
