Letting Go of Hope
My writing has been heavy lately.
I have felt heavy, literally and figuratively.
I am still not in the clear, but a shift is happening.
I am able to observe with much more neutrality and levity.
It is still uncomfortable AF, but the despair isn't holding me tight.

Fat, Ugly & Abandoned
I am feeling fat, ugly and abandoned.
It's not a fleeting feeling. It runs deep. As painful and dark as this feels…part of me knows it is necessary terrain I must sit in, face and feel. Ugh.

Big Feelings
I learned to suppress my feelings early. I come from the 'children are to be seen and not heard' and 'I'll give you something to cry about' generation.

Burn it Down! Light it Up!
Happy Lunar New Year! Hallelujah, it's time for bold action and change! This past year of the shedding snake (Chinese New Year) has been deeply disturbing and painful for anyone who is paying attention. There has been much for our nervous systems and hearts to process with the current USA administration and it's cruelty, bullying, lying, stealing, breaking laws, and ignoring our courts and constitution. The continuous trauma and corruption happening before our eyes is beyond

A New Way Forward
Hello and Happy NEW Year!
Like many of us, I have been feeling overwhelmed and powerless with what's going on in our world. Specifically with the atrocities and injustices happening daily in the USA.
One by one, we are Awakening to our True nature, Love.
And to the reality that wholeness is our birthright.
The new world is here for all of us. Not for the rich and the mighty. Not for the Christians
Not for the whites.
Not for men. It is for ALL OF US to delight and

Becoming Your Own Bestie
First... I am cancer free, Yippee!!!
The biopsy of the tumor in my right ovary came back Benign. What a relief!
Thank you to all who were praying for me, thinking good thoughts, who reached out through texts, calls, emails and Facebook. The gift of loving care I experienced through this was incredible and I am forever grateful for you!
I am thrilled to be preparing for an in person work/play shop this Saturday.

Perfect Vulnerability
I've come to realize that it doesn't matter how we arrive, for we will each arrive one day. And upon our arrival, we will know true love and belonging.
I am knowing this now.
At least in this very moment.

Radical Honesty
I am a Truth seeker and a Truth teller. This has not been an easy road to travel. One of the hardest lessons has been learning discernment. Truth is tricky because our perceptual filters influence how we see things, but what I am referring to here are basic Truths or tenets that guide me

Life, Death and Love
It's been a busy, challenging, heartbreaking, energizing and expansive couple of months. It is a privilege to be here for the short time we are. And when it's our time to go, there is nothing to fear. Love is what matters. Nothing else.

How to Relax When the World is on Fire
Do you know? Seriously, I am looking for answers. Funny, not funny, I know. Conversations with your Higher Self are an incredible way to get grounded in a space of solid support, unconditional loving and practical guidance. I'm excited to share three ways to help you in developing this practice.

What Can We Do?
How are you doing my friend? I've been experiencing waves of shock, fear and grief witnessing the gravity of what is unfolding here in the USA. It feels surreal and at times, unbearable. It has taken time to find my center. I am still wobbly, but I have a daily practice that is helping. So, what can we do?

Look for the Helpers
I have been quiet these past 3 months. I haven't known what to say about what's happening in our country. Thank you to all the firefighters and first responders who are working tirelessly to contain the fires. We are here to take care of each other. We are our brothers and our sisters keeper. There is nothing more important than this reality.

Decluttering Your Body
The food industry is poisoning us. Reading the ingredients in many foods is disturbing. I was blind to this because I thought, 'it's just a pre-packaged salad, and salads are good for me, right?' Knowing I was not free in my habitual eating patterns really bugged me. I was finally ready to declutter my pantry, fridge, body and unhealthy habits...

Little Miss Bossy Pants
I wasn't always loud, opinionated and bossy. I was actually quite shy and awkward as a child. The truth is, I don't know when I found my courage and my voice... but somewhere along the way, I decided that this lifetime would not be the life I would be silent in, especially when injustices were happening around me...

What Were We Thinking...
Many of us have been here before, playing a variety of different characters-the villain, the hero, the victim, the bystander. Perhaps we've played all the roles here in our attempts to learn and grow. But even in the WTF times, I'm ALL IN this time around. I have a passion for learning, growing and re-membering, and for helping!

Dumb, Stupid, Idiot...
You are not these things! In fact, this couldn't be farther from the Truth... Yet it's a common way we refer to ourselves when we don't understand something, are forgetful, or make a mistake. They are deep misunderstandings that can cause great harm. This is why it's important that we pause and tune into what's really going on...
