How Does Winter’s Darkness Inspire Your Inner Genius?
The darkness of the winter season brings an opportunity to reflect on your life’s journey by taking a closer look at who you are – underneath the layers of life. It’s a time to turn within and write about your inner thoughts and feelings. By looking for the “light” – and knowing that it’s there, somewhere, waiting to be discovered – you can reach a place where your personal reflection begins to shed its own light. It’s a time to ponder where you’ve been, how you got to where you are now – and where to go from here. It’s an opportunity to explore new ways of thinking and to prepare for a new path of travel. It also marks an ideal time for connecting with…

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…

Finding Light in the Dark
Next week, we’ll be moving into another new moon phase which always brings a time of new beginnings. Where one door closes, another one opens. During a new moon phase, the sky is completely black, other than the surrounding stars. It’s the point in every month when the moon takes a retreat and begins to grow again, redoubling her light and reflecting new creative energy on the world. It brings to our awareness the potential that darkness has in shedding light on life’s lessons and the many gifts that would otherwise go unnoticed. The darkness of the moon brings an opportunity to reflect on our life’s journey by taking a closer look at who we are – underneath the layers of life. It’s a time to turn within…

Are You a Changemaker or a Trailblazer?
As someone who has spent years in the political arena working on campaigns and issues related to the betterment of humanity, I have a full understanding of the impact of the changemakers. Many of them are humanitarian by nature and feel quite purposeful when they’re creating big change for society. They have a “fix-it” approach to solving life’s problems with a heart-filled desire to equalize opportunities for others. They thrive on working within a collective energy in an effort to push the human race forward. They’re often the “first responders” in a time of crisis, ready to share their best tools and practices for changing the current circumstances. I’ve also spent a lot of time working in the corporate arena, alongside people whom I would…
