  • What if you stop…

    A few years ago I did my first Silent Retreat. I stopped talking for three days. It blew my mind. I couldn’t believe I had waited 40 plus years to stop talking for a few days. I started applying the idea of “stopping” to different behaviors. I’d ask myself questions. What if I stopped consuming news for three days? What if I stopped worrying about my kids? What if I stopped fixing, forcing, doubting? And the list goes on. This week, I will be encouraging you to experiment with this inquiry as well. Be your own experiment. It very well may change your life.

  • What does it take to own your power?

    What does it take to own your power? What will it take for you to stand tall, be authentic, be self authoring? These are questions I’ve written at the top of my journal for the last, let’s just say 20 years! Owning your power—for me—is being self authoring. It’s not needing acknowledgement of others. It’s not needing to talk to the experts before making a decision. Being in your own power in not worrying about what the critics are saying. In the end, being in your own power is having the confidence to design your life. And this all begins with awareness. Let’s dive in.

  • What it takes to trust yourself

    What does it take to truly trust yourself? This is a massive question. One of the most common remarks I hear from the women I work with is that they question their own judgment. They question their direction, their passions and purpose. Why do we do this and what will it take for us to finally, once and for all, look to ourselves first? What does it take for us to trust ourselves before we seek the acknowledgement of experts out there? Let’s find out!

  • What it takes to speak your truth!

    What does it take to speak your truth? Practice. That’s all I have to say. Practice speaking your truth and you will become more graceful at doing so. How do I know this? Oh, I have learned this the hard way, my friend. I have held back. I have played small. I have not said what I mean. I have said things in a sticky awkward way. You get the gist. I love this topic.
