The conversation was bold and deep and transparent. Five professionals, all different in how we work but similar in that we work to help create ways for ourselves and others to shift into a new age, with new ways in life, business, leadership and community. As I feel like I have been navigating change and the unknown for a few
The gift of ritual – taking my assignment seriously
Some of you may remember me sharing about a process I did at the beginning of the year where I wrote down 13 wishes, gave 12 to the Universe and then kept the one remaining as homework assigned by the Universe. It was a burn ritual and done as a “blind” process in that I didn’t know what wishes I
Don’t take time, Make time…
Don’t take time, Make time… Making your list, checking it twice… are you on it? Tis’ the season for all the things!!! I love the holidays! All the busyness, gatherings, hosting, shopping, decorating, food, parties, I love it all! … Until I don’t. As a good extroverted introvert, (that means I was raised to engage well with others, but
A time of trust and transference
I said to him with zero hesitation, knowing in advance, it may not be received comfortably, “If you want to build a relationship that is founded in trust then grab a shovel and dig for it.” His spirit was very clear with him that he was in a place in his life of not quite knowing what to do or
Love and Fear- choosing your perspective
I could think of thousands of examples if I try. So very many times when we are looking into the space of ‘new’ or ‘different’ we feel into our bodies an equal experience of love and fear. That part of us that is super excited by options and possibilities, and desired outcomes, and that part of us that just wants
In the sanctuary of others
In the sanctuary of others I am an introvert. To some of you that will be shocking, to others not so much. I am fine by myself; being home, traveling, going out to dinner, etc. I love my people but I don’t NEED them to have something to do. I don’t “need someone to go with” when I want

So here we are easing the waist bands on our pants, finding one more use for leftover stuffing and running headlong into our next holiday
So here we are easing the waist bands on our pants, finding one more use for leftover stuffing and running headlong into our next holiday. Merry Christmas. There is a melancholy for me each year that comes with the end of the Christmas season. In recent years, it has meant saying good-bye to my son as he heads
We take care of what we value…
We take care of what we value… Her voice cracked as she spoke, “I don’t understand why they don’t treat me well.” She was speaking, not of some random manager at work, or the barista at the local coffee shop, but of her own children. We talked through the trials and tribulations of young adult children, how they
A time of Thanks
Cheers to another wonderful year. As we step into this time of Thanks, there is much that comes to mind. It is easy to be thankful for the apparent good things: I am thankful for our first batch of chickens I am thankful my Son is back on US soil I am thankful Clarence’s son is back living in
