• A Journaling Mom’s Path to Self-Discovery

    As we begin to enter the last quarter moon phase, I’m mindful of the baby steps that are needed before we can take off on a full run toward anything in life that we may desire. And with each step we take, there’s an impact – an impression that we make on the path – that has an everlasting effect, not only on us, but on those around us. Imagine for a moment a “pebble thrown into a pond.” It creates a ripple that goes on and on and on. I believe that mothers are a significant part of the “ripple effect” – that will transform the world into a more loving, more nurturing place. When a mother is living life with complete authenticity, she’s…

  • Is There More To Life Than This?

    There must be more to life than this! Has this thought ever popped into your mind? And more importantly, has it popped up recently? If so, you’re not alone! ~ More and more people are feeling deeply dissatisfied with their businesses and job situations, their relationships, their income, even their future potential.  They want big change, but they don’t know how to make it happen fast enough – or even at all. The great Nelson Mandela once said, “There is no passion to be found in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.” Like so many of my friends and colleagues, I’m going through some major changes right now, both personally and professionally. A lot is shifting within me and around me…

  • Life Organizing: Managing Your Time for Self and Others

    In my work as a Life Purpose Alchemist, I work with highly-creative and spiritually-minded women who desire a life filled with authenticity, passion, meaningful connection, and creative self-expression. When all of these dots are connected, women are capable of creating massive ripples of positive influence in the world that can show up in the most interesting of ways. But what happens when a woman over-extends herself in the giving to others? Is the ripple as effective as it would be if she was prioritizing her own needs in the way she prioritizes the needs of others? Is it possible to over-provide? I’ve asked author and self-care expert, Jennifer Loudon to join me on my blog today to share her thoughts about over-providing. Jennifer Louden is a personal growth…

  • Journaling by the Moonlight – Facilitator Training

    The Journaling by the Moonlight (JBTM) brand is expanding! After receiving numerous requests to bring this body of work to other parts of the world and to a variety of audiences, I made the decision to structure the program in a way that allows for creative teaching through an array of different lenses. And one of the ways to do this is to open a global circle that will allow others to facilitate the Journaling by the Moonlight process in way that’s tailored to a particular audience. Originally created for mothers, this unique process is ideal for creative and spiritually-minded individuals who yearn for a deeper connection to self, and who are ready to tap into their inner light – what I call the “full moon within” – and claim their authentic self,…

  • Are You a Human Being – or a Human Doing?

    Whenever we watch the news, we can see global unrest happening all over the world. People are confused, frustrated, unsatisfied, and angry about this or that – and are desperately seeking answers to questions that feel puzzling. They’re scrambling, looking for things they can do to fix whatever problem they may be facing. And then there are those who are reaching beyond just wanting answers to their questions and quick-fix solutions. They are the ones who are looking for ways to bring more meaning into their lives through a deeper connection to self and a beingness that feels more authentically-aligned. There’s a deep yearning for purpose and passion – and a desire for crystal clear clarity about life itself. This is what inspires more thought-provoking questions,…
