My year of 2025 RESET continues, this month I am focusing on resetting my physical health. Making small choices every day to move and nourish my body is a priority.

My 2025 RESET continues with a complete emptying of a storage unit I had for way too long. It has been a physically and emotionally challenging process.

New Era Collaboration

Welcome to April 2025! We have just passed through the spring (or fall if you are in the southern hemisphere) Equinox and a New Moon Solar Eclipse. Powerful energy supporting change and transformation!  Settling into my own inner wisdom, I see and feel the ‘carnage’ of the old era ending and it makes my heart […]

Inspired Amidst Grief

My six-month contract coaching newly diagnosed multiple sclerosis patients weekly ended in February. What an honor to support them through the overwhelm, grief, and disruption this disease caused them and their families. Simultaneously, their resilience, clear values, priorities, deep dive learning, and commitment to living their healthiest life was so inspiring. For me there is […]
