• Exploring Life’s Pivotal Moments

    Fiction writer, Sandra Kring once noted, “We work hard to disown the parts of our lives that were painful, difficult, or sad. But just as we can’t rip chapters out of a book and expect the story to still make sense, so we cannot rip chapters out of our past and expect our lives to still make sense. Keep every chapter of your life intact, and keep on turning the pages. Sooner or later you’ll understand why every scene, every chapter was needed.” Throughout our life journey, we encounter a variety of different experiences. We meet new people, we make friends, we get an education, we take certain jobs, we change our career, we explore certain hobbies, we find love, we experience break-ups, we make…

  • 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…

  • Full Moon Rising – The Gift in Your Life Story

    Tonight’s full moon, referred to as a “pink moon” – symbolizes a blossoming of potential. Because it’s the first full moon in this new season, it brings light to the unique gifts in our life stories.    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…

  • The Ripple Effect of Gratitude

    As we prepare for the Thanksgiving holiday here in the United States – and move into another full moon phase, I can’t help but think of the impact that gratitude has when we embrace it wholeheartedly. Can you imagine a world where everyone showed gratitude? If someone did something kind for you, you’d probably give them a warm smile and say thank you. And if you were having a bad day, someone else might take time out of his or her life to comfort you, making you feel better. It’s these acts of kindness that prompt people to show their gratitude by doing something similar for someone else. Like a skipping stone in a pond, acts of gratitude have the potential to create a ripple…

  • Step into Your Moxie

    As a certified creativity and self-empowerment coach, I create safe and sacred space for highly-creative and spiritually-minded women who are ready to discover, empower, and activate their authentic voice and bring it into light – which is why I’ve invited author Alexia Vernon to join me on my blog today. Her new book, Step into Your Moxie: Amplify Your Voice, Visibility, and Influence in the World – published by New World Library, presents a soul-stirring call to action for women to speak up for themselves and the ideas and issues that matter most to them. And the timing couldn’t be more perfect! In this age of women’s empowerment, as ever increasing numbers of women are finding their voices, speaking their truths, and daring to take…
