  • Learning to Fly

    I clearly heard words from Tom Petty: “I’m learning to fly. But I ain’t got wings.” What does this mean? I’m learning to fly and soar.  I don’t have wings and yet I can fly anyway.  When I’m high and soaring in my power, I used to bring myself down because I felt somehow I didn’t…

  • Is It Too Good To Be True?

    I’ve been having conversations recently with a friend.  He truly wants to find and enjoy a long term committed relationship.  His relationship experience is dotted with disappointment and hurt.  He recently met someone new and they clicked. In one breath, he tells me about their amazing connection.  They enjoy spending time together, talking, intimacy, just…

  • You Can Pee In A Meeting!

    When you’re in a personal or business conversation with someone you care about, and your conversation becomes negative or argumentative, how do you respond?

  • 7 habits revealing you have low self esteem

    Years ago, my friends and family would tell me I needed to like myself more.  They said I had low self-esteem.  It frustrated me to hear what I took as judgement and criticism.  That is until the day I realized, they were right.  Self-esteem seems to be a “taboo” topic especially to admit a lack…

  • My Love Affair with Prince

    Hearing about Prince’s untimely death put me in a time warp. I remember driving my parent’s car listening to the 1999 album and belting out DMSR, 1999, Little Red Corvette and International Lover with the windows rolled down. I’ve been flooded with memories remembering his music’s impact in my life. Flashing back to a moment…

    Purify and Protect

    “I feel like I breathe deeper and with a sigh of relaxation when I visit you.” This was a comment I received from my client the other day about my home and office. I told her “You can have this feeling in your home, your car, your office, your property, any space too.” She didn’t…

  • Did God abandon me?

    Did God abandon me?

    Have you ever felt lost and abandoned by what you trust, what you know, who you know and what keeps you feeling comfortable in your own skin? As a young child I soared with happiness.  I lived authentically and in a big way with big energy. I trusted me and the world. I felt connected…

  • What is “clearing spaces”?

      I clear spaces. It is something I have a talent for and I enjoy it. No two have ever been alike. I was sharing this with a a new friend over coffee and was asked what it was. Was it just smudging, was it like Feng Shui or what? What a great question. I…

  • We choose Happiness

    One day someone close to me asked how I do it? “Do what?” Be Happy she responded. She knew there was a time in my life when I was not happy. I seemed negative, darker. Great question. The answer is simple. The explanation more lengthy. Happiness is a choice. I realize saying happiness is a…
