I hope you are having a wonderful summer and soaking up the sunshine! I’m heading out on vacation soon and I’m beyond excited. It’s been a long time since I’ve given myself permission to completely unplug, but I’m going to do that. That means I’m not going to be checking Facebook or email. Gasp! This is actually going to be...
Hey everyone! Time for Part 3. I have to say, I normally like to do both video AND a blog post because I find that different things come out of me when I’m speaking vs. writing. However, I feel like I said it all in the video, so I’d love to have you go right to the video. This one is all about your thoughts –...
Has anyone ever give you total permission and encouragement to be a complete hot mess? Have you ever felt like you’re completely free to fall apart? To let your dark emotions flow out of you unchecked? Have you ever been able to look at the darkness that we all go through as a gorgeous, beautiful, powerful thunderstorm...

Hi, fellow HSP. I’m so glad you’re here. This blog post is going to be short, simple, sweet. It’s a message we all need to hear because I believe that most of us have grown up thinking that we are defective in some way.

There have been quite a few events in the world making major headlines as of late. Unfortunately, most of them are heart wrenching. I’ve experienced quite a few encounters with people who are feeling deeply hopeless about the state of the world. They are feeling surrounded by violence, swallowed by negativity and...
So, wow. Just, wow. I’m at a retreat in Baltimore, just 3 miles from my house, staying in a hotel with 23 other amazing women. I’m taking the course, Sacred Success, led by the wonderful Barbara Stanny. Today we talked about our Life Purpose and I was in full-on geek out mode. This is the stuff I live for and to be...
My 98-year-old grandmother is dying. We’ve known it’s been coming for a while, but I had no idea how strongly it would affect me. Even though I have a very strong belief in the transition out of the body, the limitlessness of our existence and the connection I will have with her when she’s gone, I had no idea how hard it...
Ok, this isn’t easy. Acceptance is a daily practice. Most of us run away and would happily trade in acceptance for all sorts of other vices: food, drinks, isolation, you name it. Acceptance means that you’re pretty much stuck with yourself. That doesn’t sound too appealing, does it? However, it’s freaking awesome. I...
Hello! So, let’s talk movement, aka: exercise. If you’ve read my whole story, you know that I went from someone who felt like a total mess of a person who couldn’t handle daily life without feeling totally overwhelmed, to someone who feels kind of amazing on a regular basis (I still have the occasional meltdown –...
