Not just today but every day. Celebrate women for what they’ve endured, how far they have come, and for who they are. Women are what give birth to the universe manifested as possibility.
How to benefit from conflict.
I went out for the first time yesterday. To dinner for a dear friends Birthday, 39. My brother would have been 39 on his upcoming birthday, Feb 12. She was…
Today marks two weeks since the sudden passing of my brother. Such a strange almost indescribable feeling. Sometimes it feels like yesterday and sometimes like a lifetime ago. I’ve screamed,…

Today before the hustle and bustle of New Year’s celebrations, although mine will be very intimate, I am taking the day to reflect (self-inquiry) on 2017 and all that it…
Photo by Michael Shannon Most recently I have really been challenged with the thought of who “likes” and or supports me and who doesn’t. It’s not a new thought, but it’s…
Our conditioning runs so deep. Being defined by what we do, how busy we are, how much we’ve accomplished. We get so wrapped up in doing we forget about being and being is who we are.
Excuse me for a minute while I wipe the grease off my fingers, and the keyboard… OK I’m back! I started typing and realized I still had grease on my fingers from polishing off a half of bag of chips with some Helluva Good Dip, ever had it?
I was listening to a podcast this morning on anxiety, the stigma, and the people who are brave enough to speak up. I also happened to watch a video that’s…
So we all have a desire to be seen. To know that we’re being listened to, that we matter. It’s part of the human condition. Condition(ing) being the key.
It’s 10AM, I’ve had three coffees, sent my husband off to work, and I am still sitting here in my underwear feeling rather emotional and defeated. It’s been grey and rainy here for the better part of spring, and now summer, and after a really long miserable winter, both weather wise and personal, I have had just about enough.

OMG Chills of TRUTH! You HAVE to read this, no seriously you MUST read this… A Twelve Year Old’s Perspective
I’ve often struggled on my path, sometimes more than I’ve triumphed. Each time was painful, sometimes seeming like beyond relief. But there always seemed to be a light, someone who was there to listen, to remind me of my greatness and to lift me higher.
