• What’s the Story You Need to Tell?

    As a certified creativity and life purpose coach, and a certified journal writing facilitator, I work with highly-creative and spiritually-minded women who are facing a variety of life and business transitions that lead them on paths of new beginnings that inspire self-discovery and creative expression. These new beginnings often involve a deeper exploration of their life stories, where miraculous healing can take place and a larger sense of purpose begins to emerge. It’s where they find their authentic voice coming to light. So much could change in our lives, and in our world, if we just stepped into the power of our life story – learning its lessons, receiving its gifts, and bettering ourselves in the process – then finding our own diamond in the rough,…

  • What’s the Universal Gift in Your Life Story?

    One of the most powerful films I’ve ever seen is Freedom Writers. It continues to be one of my favorites. It shows the power of journal writing – and telling one’s story through a voice that is unique to the storyteller. And through the pages of sharing this story, a larger sense of purpose begins to unveil. For a taste of what the film is about, visit this link and watch the movie trailer: Freedom Writers So much could change in our lives, and in our world, if we just stepped into the power of our life story – learning its lessons, receiving its gifts, and bettering ourselves in the process – then finding our own diamond in the rough, giving it a good polish,…

  • Navigating Life’s Journey through Power Questions

    As a certified creativity and life purpose coach for highly-creative and spiritually-minded women, I’m always exploring various scenarios with questions. I have an innate curiosity to know “who, what, where, when, why – and how.” This curiosity was instrumental in my early days as a television, radio, and print journalist. It also plays a key role in my current work as I gently guide women on a path of self-discovery as they connect with their inner voice and learn to navigate life’s many twists and turns. Asking “power questions” is part of the service I provide for my clients. It’s also something that I teach them to do for themselves. So when I found out about my colleague Sandy Nelson‘s new book, Ask Power Questions:…

  • Are You on a “Caterpillar to Butterfly” Journey?

    On a recent walk along one of my favorite Cape Cod nature trails, I noticed a butterfly crossing my path. It stayed with me for a few minutes, eventually landing on a gorgeous pink azalea that had just bloomed. I began thinking about this butterfly – and the transformation it had taken to become one. It reminded me of a favorite quote by beloved poet Maya Angelou. “We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.” Every great transformation – whether personal, professional or creative – involves a process that isn’t always pleasant. There are many twists and turns, lots of creating and adjusting, and a necessary willingness to see it all through. It’s…

  • What Does This Blue Moon Have in Store for You?

    We’re in for a real treat this week as we move into a full moon phase in the astrological sign of Aquarius. It will bring light to our unique path, allowing us to see how our own individuality contributes to the higher good of the collective. It’s a perfect time to contemplate the impact of your life purpose legacy. And because this will be the second full moon this month, it’s technically a “blue moon” which brings an energy of celebration. Blue moons are really special. They don’t happen every year. It’s why people say “once in a blue moon.” It’s a phrase that’s used to describe the rarity of an event or to refer to something that is considered “unusual” or“unique.”  And from a spiritual perspective, this moon phase…
