How to Know If You’re Experiencing a Spiritual Awakening

We live in a time of change like the world has never seen before. More and more people are becoming conscious of spiritual matters and are awakening to the need for change on a global scale. Many aspire to take back their lives and escape the models of…

6 Reasons to Pursue Your Purpose and Not Money

By Money, Success No Comments

“Let money be the sign from the universe that you are creating value for other people, not the measuring stick of your success or status in society.” ~ Tim Dennings, Author It’s so easy to get caught in a rut of trying to make as much money as possible. Don’t get me wrong – money is a fantastic resource. But when we get stuck in the trap of making money for the sake of making money it can get in…

How to Cultivate a Spiritual Practice

By Awareness 2 Comments

Creating a sacred space and spiritual practice can make the difference between a mediocre day and a day filled with intention and positivity. A life that is guided by spirit comes from regular practice. A spiritual practice requires time, discipline and love. A daily ritual grounds us and allows us to align our actions with our deepest purpose. Just like you can’t be an Olympic champion without daily practice and training, you can’t cultivate a spiritual practice without carving time…

It’s Not About Being “Careful”

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Success No Comments

A few weeks ago, as I stepped out of my house in the late evening to walk my dog, Sadie, I started to slide on the ice outside my front door. Whoa! I looked around and saw that a thin layer of ice was covering the entire sidewalk and road! I had to walk her, so I figured out pretty quickly that if I walked on the grass it was safer. I slowly made my way up the block, carefully…

What’s Your Fear Of Confrontation Costing You?

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Success No Comments

I used to HATE confrontation. I would avoid it like the plague because I was raised to believe it’s “not nice” and I placed a high value on being “nice”.  Is that true for you too? It’s one of the driving forces behind what I call “TOXIC NICENESS”  (where we hold back from expressing how we really feel for fear of hurting someones feelings or to avoid them thinking badly of us.) Fear of confronting (looking at or speaking the…

Messy Transitions

By Personal Growth, Self Care 2 Comments

Today marks the first day that I am officially an “empty nester”. The last of my three children left home yesterday for college. My older two have been gone for a while. (It’s a 10 year age difference between #2 and #3.) Last week we were all together for the first time in 6 years! #2 graduated from the Naval Officer training program and I seized the opportunity to create a mini family reunion around the celebration. My Mom flew…

Using Your Fear As Fuel

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Success No Comments

Most of us are taught that being a strong, successful person means that you don’t entertain fear and you certainly don’t show it. Probably because wallowing in it can be draining and can rob us of our joy, self confidence, energy and our power. I know this to be true as I lived with anxiety (fear) for the first 30+ years of my life. I did not know it was my normal state until I experienced NOT having it for…

The Power Of Changing Your Mind

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Success No Comments

Did you see the movie “Fences”? I loved it! It is based on a powerful play by August Wilson. I loved that even though it was a movie, I felt like I was watching a play. No cinematic fluff. I loved that the filmmaker chose to keep it simple and NOT to use all of the tools available through current technology. It was carried solely on the strength of the brilliant acting (Viola Davis won the academy award for Best…

Finally! The Baby’s Here!

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Self Care, Success No Comments

If you’ve been following my journey over the last 8 months or so, you’ll know that I was journeying though what I called “The Void”. I surrendered fully to my Souls journey, letting go of much of what I was doing and how I was doing them and creating space for what was wanting to be birthed next through me. It’s has been a journey that has required: Developing greater levels of courage and trust – in myself and the…

Challenge or Opportunity?

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Success No Comments

Well, Donald Trump has been in office 11 days and chances are you are feeling A) The world has gone mad B) Incredibly stressed and angry C) Disconnected from the whole thing I spoke with a friend last night (who lives in another country) and she was feeling incredibly stressed out by what is happening here in America. I was curious as to why she felt so affected, since she doesn’t live here. I forgot that the world is more…
