The Art Of Letting Go Of Things That No Longer Serve You
This past week, on Ash Wednesday, I reflected on the art of Letting Go. As you might know, I've been working on writing my memoir. My journals that I've kept since I was nine years old are a great resource. I read one entry this week that triggered an intense feeling...
Keep Love As Your Superpower
I hope Valentine’s Day brought you thoughts of love and many gifts that always come with Love (which sometimes happens even from just reflecting on it). I have a story to share today that I’m sure will warm your heart. This past week I had three...
Anything Can Be Changed
“I didn’t know it was changeable,” my son Evan said as we worked on redesigning his room. A trip to Ikea was all he needed to get started. And a new ceiling fan. “Look, it actually moves air,” we laughed as he demonstrated the speed of the brand new, sleek-looking...
Why You Shouldn’t Push Blindly Through Pain
The other day, a friend of mine sent me a link to a post with Kobe Bryant's speech from 2016, when he was being honored with an award for his basketball career. “We’re not on this stage just because of talent or ability. We’re up here because of 4 a.m. We’re up here...

I always loved Saturday mornings. To me, they aren't something that comes at the end of a busy week. Rather, they are something that marks the beginning of another beautiful adventure. Growing up, it was the day when my mom would go to the market and come back home...
Lighten Your Load to Improve Your Journey
I got into the passenger seat of my car and closed the door. "Did I pack everything?" I asked David, who was taking me to the rental car office. From there, I'd rent a car and drive to Texas to continue our Waking Up In America Tour I recited the short list I have...
Are You Constraining Life’s Gifts?
Happy New Year! On the first day of 2020 I wanted to dress up. I put on a dress and a string of pearls before finishing dinner. I lit a pair of tall candles on my beautifully set dinning room table and called the kids down. Evan put piano music on, and after a...
Going Into A New Decade..
It's here - the end of another year, the end of another decade. And the beginning of a new one. 2020. ('Twenties are here again!' as my friend wrote on her Instagram, with a pic of some happy flapper dancers LOL) My hope (and intention) is to welcome 2020 as an...
How To Do More Out Of Love
For the first time ever, I am actually ahead of Christmas! Well, maybe not ever, just since before I had children 🙂 And maybe not ahead, just not terribly behind! I got all the shopping done and my Christmas cards actually arrived with plenty of time for me to write...
