Where do we go from here? Everywhere.

There is so much pain and destruction in the world right now, it’s difficult to choose where to focus. People: mothers, children, families losing their lives, lives being taken. Lives being given up. Men fighting for their families or their heritage or what they believe is the right thing to do or feeling so overwhelmed they just check out completely. Not to mention the throngs of people who chose to die before they die. Mental illness is so rampant, it’s becoming more powerful than treatable. Delusions taken as truthful conclusions, infiltrating and disseminating rather than alleviated. Homes being destroyed, history being erased. While our earth is crying and her fire raging. And we’re still waging war. Pillaging. Hate finding its way into places where love is being begged. It’s so difficult to be sensitive, to not become calloused as history repeats and we keep seeming to miss the lesson. The universe getting so loud, it’s screaming, but seems like we’ve all just got better earplugs...

Let Go of Twenty-Fo and GET LIVE in Twenty-Five (read to rhyme 😜)

2024 was a year of transformation and revelation.  It was a year that held the energy of upheaval and inner conflict and hopefully recognition of who you are on a deeper level and what's been out of alignment with your essence.  The year of the Dragon was one of strength and courage to face challenges with bravery. Certainly for me, this has been a year of really committing to the Tantric philosophy "life is happening for me" versus "life is happening to me." Living in this way has led me to discover divinity in some of the darkest places... including where the sun don't shine!   Making for a VERY juicy, exciting, rewarding year! I can tell you, the darkness is not an easy place to navigate. The unknown and unseen and the ignored, hide in our blind spots for good reason. More often than not, it's to protect something precious. When you realize how very precious YOU are and how amazing life is for offering you opportunities to be stronger and more ...

Oh... I'm the dick

I'm now sitting on the plane resting easy, for at least the last 30 minutes. When I arrived at the airport, my app listed the wrong terminal. So, I had to train to down to the farthest end to the terminal I was departing from. it took me a minute to make sense of the change and so of course, I would get down to the train just as it was pulling away. It was the perfect primer for what would be a continued theme of waiting for more waiting. Wait for the train to wait on the train to wait in another line and another and so on. As I approached the security, I was immediately annoyed at the guy in front of me for meandering around each turn of the empty maze. I followed him for a couple turns finding myself increasingly fed up. So I dipped under the last one 🤦🏻‍♀️ and popped in front of him. "He certainly had time to chill, it was fine, I have a plane I’m already friggin late for!" (My internal dialogue was in full force at this point, I won't share everything, I already...

I just celebrated my birth...

 I just celebrated my birth and as I opened my laptop, I fully expected to be using exclamations rather than ellipses... but I as I lifted my screen, deciding what to write about, and my birthday came to mind, I thought about my mom. We're kind of in a limbo post disagreement. A limbo held by celebrations and traveling and visits. It doesn't feel good to have this resistance in my body when I think about calling her and this drop in my stomach when I think about my birthday. She literally gave me the gift of my life. I should be celebrating her in gratitude. Maybe that's part of my problem. I so badly want her to be celebrating me and singing my praises from the rooftops and perhaps I just need to be showering her in gratitude and let the rest go. I'm in such a fantastic place in my life: amazing husband, kind loving kids, fulfilling purposeful career, beautiful home, fantastic cat, super awesome friends, a great strong body, exciting goals and dreams that feel possible...
