• Personal Power through Awareness

    As a certified creativity coach and possibility artist, I work with writers, poets, musicians, performers, artists, and creative entrepreneurs who are highly-sensitive and keenly aware of the energies around them – and within themselves. This leads to great discernment in the creation process, knowing when and how to work with energy – and being mindful of its influence and impact . To help us understand the sensitivity of energy, I’ve invited author Sanaya Roman to discuss the wisdom shared in her book, Personal Power through Awareness: A Guidebook for Sensitive People – which was recently published by New World Library. Sanaya offers great insight for the creative soul – as channeled through Orin, a wise and gentle spirit teacher – which is shared in our…

  • Inspiration – Signs from the Other Side

    Artists and writers are often inspired by creative muses, which come in various forms and at unexpected times. In my case, it was the moon that inspired a body of work that I didn’t realize I had within me. After moving through a difficult phase in my life, it was the moon that taught me the significance of transition – and how our life journeys are always shifting from darkness into light, and cycling around again. Inspiration comes when you’re least expecting it, even from the other side – as described by author Bill Philipps in his new book, Signs from the Other Side: Opening to the Spirit World – which was recently published by New World Library. This book offers techniques for listening to intuition and…

    In just a few days, a new season begins – and with it, comes an extraordinary amount of change. I love the rich, vibrant colors of autumn.

You can sense that everything is changing – in preparation for a new cycle. In nature, there is…

  • Bringing Harmony and Balance into Motherhood

    Seven years ago, I wrote my first book, Journaling by the Moonlight: A Mother’s Path to Self-Discovery. It was inspired by my own journey into motherhood – a time of joy and celebration, but also a time of anxiety, depression, and confusion. I was a mother, but who was I really? Those first two years of motherhood proved to be a challenging experience for me – one where I lost a sense of personal identity, spiraling into darkness and losing my self-esteem. And it was that experience that ignited my passion for supporting mothers on their journey toward a more purposeful and peaceful life. Today, I’ve invited Bailey Gaddis, author of the book, “Feng Shui Mommy: Creating Balance and Harmony for Blissful Pregnancy, Childbirth, and…

How does it spark your creative process? Imagine taking an autumn walk and being surrounded by the richness of change. You see the leaves changing colors, perhaps dropping to the ground.

In nature, there is nothing that is not continually renewing itself – and that constant renewal is out of the ground of what no longer…
