I’ve written about darkness in the past on this blog, but recently the contrast between dark and light has been pronounced in my life. And once one thing catches your attention, it seems like so many other similarities start to show up in one’s life. My recent weekend of It/Not it was definitely filled with... Continue Reading →
The Gift of Contrast
A number of weeks ago on my life coaching course we had lesson about contrast. I was reminded that when something happens that we do not like, it evokes an intention to create what we want instead. Everything in life is either ‘It’ or ‘Not It’. ‘It’ experiences are in alignment with our joy, passion,... Continue Reading →
All Good Things are Wylde and Free
What’s in a name? We arrive in this world and are given a name by our parents. As a parent myself, I know the angst I had when it came to naming my children. But why are names such a big deal? Or more accurately, why do we make them a big deal? I’ve had... Continue Reading →

Superheroes do more than fly (some swim too!)
Normally this blog is about me. Or really it’s about my journey to get back to believing in myself. I think it’s only fair to write about myself and not try to speak for other people. But today’s post is different. I am often told by women that I am brave. Brave for being true... Continue Reading →

Life by my rules
I have always been a rule follower. I was the good girl in school. I didn't disappoint my parents. I got good grades. I was scared to step out of line. I'm not sure exactly what I thought would happen if I screwed up any part of my life, but I wasn't going to take... Continue Reading →
Painting as I am
Why is it that no matter who I talk to, I find out that they are battling demons that remain in their mind from childhood? It doesn’t seem to matter if you are 30 or 40 or 50 or even 80, there are things that happen in your childhood, stories you take on within yourself... Continue Reading →
Can you hear the Universe laughing?
Almost five years ago a close friend of mine said to me, ‘You know, you’d make a great life coach.’ I looked at her with dismay and disgust and responded, ‘You have got to be fuckin’ kidding me. My life is a mess and who in their right mind would pay me to be a... Continue Reading →
