Sixteen and a Half Years
I think my phone is trying to tell me that I’m wasting my life. The latest update on my iPhone brought with it a fun new feature called “Screen Time” that tracks the amount of time I spend on my phone each day as well as what apps and features I’m using that time on.…
Read MoreMy Strange Addiction
I love self-help books. Maybe a little too much. I’m sort of an addict if you want to know the truth. I don’t know if they’re really called “self-help” books these days. I think they prefer to be called “personal development” books now. Whatever you call them, I’m a big fan. I buy them all…
Read MoreYou don’t have to try harder
I remember talking to a client about her habit of binging on junk food when she worries about her son who is 33 and autistic and currently living in a group home that she’s not happy with.“I know,” she said. “I’ll try harder.”“Don’t try harder,” I told her. “You’ve been trying long enough. Relax a…
Read MoreCan you do it anyway?
I hear a lot of excuses. And I say that with absolutely no judgement. We all do this. I have some excellent excuses. I have excuses for why I haven’t finished my book yet, for why I haven’t completely given up eating animal products, for why my house still has way too much clutter, and…
Read More10 Ways to Live Your Life with More Intention

Read MoreThe important life lesson I learned from my GPS
I was shamelessly eavesdropping on two women at the gym yesterday (I totally do that). One was telling the other about how she’d been doing so well with her diet – had even lost some weight – but then had gone away with her husband to a wedding and totally fallen off the wagon. Before she…
Read MoreWhat the food on your plate really means
The way you think about food is the way you think about everything. If we want to get even more specific, the way you think about food is the way you think about yourself and your relationship with the universe. Your plate is a microcosm. When we believe we need to constantly restrict and control…
Read MoreI’m not sorry
“The most revolutionary thing a woman can do is not explain herself.” – Glennon Doyle Lately I’ve been trying very hard to avoid saying “I’m sorry” unless I truly am. When people ask me to do something and I don’t want to do it, or I wouldn’t mind doing it, but know that doing it…
Read MoreFinding Your Steadiness and Sweetness
I had the opportunity last night to attend a class with a beautiful group of women where the topic of the evening was connecting with the Divine Masculine. For those of us who study the energies of the Divine Feminine and Masculine, we tend to think of masculine energy as all about goals, measurement, comparison,…
Read MoreWho do you need to be?
If you want something you’ve never had, you need to become someone you’ve never been. What does that mean? It means that the reason we struggle to get the results we want is because, right now, we’re not someone who does the things required to get those results. We make excuses. We put ourselves last.…
