  • New Year, New To-Do
    As we launch or lurch into a new year I’m feeling the internal nudge to reflect on and question my feels, my patterns, my progress, my values, my environment.
    We’ve got another bumpy ride ahead of us and I hope we all get a moment, or several, to reflect and adjust as needed.
    The phone will keep ringing until we answer the call to evolve. The phone will keep ringing until we answer the call to evolve.

  • Story Time: Christmas Edition
    What we believe about ourselves starts to take shape from day one. The holidays aren’t just hard on grown people without partners or families or tons of money or beliefs that support a tradition like Christmas… Holidays are also hard on kids that, for better or worse, often come to believe in something bigger than themselves- We call it Santa… Later in life many will call it God.
    To be disregarded or forgotten is an unfortunate reality of life at times. One which, I think we can all agree, should never happen to a child. No one gets it exactly right but the good news is that most people are out here being real helpers. Holiday or not your awareness and presence in this life will only lead to better- Everyday in every way.

  • When Two Roads Meet

    "Within us all there is a sad bitch and there is a bad bitch. And when the two roads meet, that’s when you become that bitch.

    That bitch heals for herself. That bitch heals for the life they are co-creating with the Universe."

  • Ghosting 101

    Being ghosted is one of life’s cruel realities. Whether you’re the ghoul, the goblin, the ghost or dating one the truth will always be the same… We must learn to lose and we must learn when to leave.


    Ghosting isn’t just reserved for romantic relationships either. We see it in “friendships”, potential employers, volunteer hopefuls. It’s everywhere!

    Ghosting, icing someone out- whatever you call it, for better or worse it’s become a common practice.

    Where do you stand on ghosting? How do you cope when it happens to you?

    Whether you’re being ghosted or are someone who needs to ghost, boundaries make all the difference in happy and healthy relationships with others and with yourself.

  • Change Takes Action 2021

    Empathy leads to action and action is the ONLY way to make change happen. I’ve partnered with @cupcakegirlsorg to make change happen and I’m asking for that you join me. Together we can help this 501c3 nonprofit, non-religious organization continue to do the work they are here to do.


    The Cupcake Girls work to provide confidential support to those in the sex industry, as well as those affected by domestic sex trafficking.

    $30 provides a hygiene kit for one client
    $50 provides a session with a counselor or therapist
    $125 provides groceries to a client (and their child/children).
    AND SO MUCH MORE!! 👏 Link is in my bio if you’re able- Let’s make change happen!

  • Indigenous Peoples' Day

    In 1492

    Columbus sailed the ocean blue

    Seeking fortune and fame
    By mistake to the Caribbean he came

    On his first day, six natives he seized
    This bozo did as he pleased

    Ushering in native oppression
    All for a little extra possession

    European colonization would begin to unfold
    And the truth was never to be told

    Settlers began to take a land already occupied
    Destroying with disease, violence, and treaties that belied

    Pilgrims, claiming to seek religious freedom
    Natives showed up to feed ‘em

    Invasion, brutality and forced assimilation
    Is really what started a nation

    This was not a discovery of new land
    It was a discovery of character for which I do not stand

    Columbus Day is out
    Real history is what we must shout.

  • Potty Training Cows?!?!

    No Really… More Vegetables, Please


    Potty training cows…. Is this real life!?

    There’s got to be a more reasonable and sustainable and humane way to lessen agricultural emissions 🤔🤔🤔

    Maybe the answer is to collectively make more fruit, vegetable, nuts, and legume choices more often!

    Thoughts about potty training cows?
