Where Are You Facing a Creative Struggle?
Spring came knocking at the door earlier this week, but winter refused to open it! As evidenced by these ice crystals spotted around my local pond yesterday, there appears to be a real struggle going on between these two. And to add to it, winter has decided to give us one more snowstorm. Yep, March has definitely come in like a lion – and may go out like one, too! As a lover of symbolism, I’m always paying attention to signs from nature – and how they want to guide my creative process. So I’m asking myself, what wants to be noticed here? As I witness the crocuses popping up through the ground – and admire the glistening of the ice crystals, I can’t help…

Writing Like a Madwoman
As a possibility artist, and a certified creativity and life alchemy coach, one of the greatest joys in my work with clients is that magical moment when the dots connect – when a highly-creative and talented woman owns her brilliance. This is exactly what happened with former client, Marta Luzim – when she claimed her genius work and birthed “Writing Like a Madwoman.” This signature body of work encapsulates Marta’s life journey and her innate gifts and talents in the most beautiful of ways, as she helps other women claim their inner madwoman through the art of deep writing and the excavation of their complex personal stories. It gives me great pleasure to introduce you to a woman who has inspired the vulnerability in my…

For a long time it has watched your desire, Feeling the emptiness growing inside you, Noticing how you willed yourself on, Still unable to leave what…

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,…
