Rising Feminine Power

In my part of the world, May is the month Mother Earth begins to sprout new life and we celebrate Mother’s Day. What are you birthing this month? Creating life is one expression of the feminine. What are other powerful characteristics, traits, and qualities of feminine energy? During April I spent time with various people […]
Fierce Compassion: You Were Made for These Times

I am digging deep inside these days to live with compassion. There are many experiencing suffering, including myself. ‘Being with’ in compassion can comfort and soothe this sense of distress. Deep listening is a practice I find particularly supportive. Being heard can reduce anxiety and stress. Knowing a person (or the inner worried concern in […]
Empowering Courageous Conversations

I have found myself more often lately in conversations with clients, students, friends, and family who are in fear and feeling ‘controlled’ by popular (often false) narratives. I lean in. I listen more deeply. I ask challenging questions inviting them into a discussion that is based on critical thinking about facts/opinions and their own reflection. […]
Bridging the Divide Towards Unity

I feel a bombardment daily trying to convince me that focusing on our differences and making the “other” who does not think like me, look like me, or believe like me is “bad and wrong.” A constant stream of news and social media encourages divisiveness and polarity. I am not buying it. Since I was a small […]

What an opportunity! We are amidst a declared pandemic. The flow of information, fear and viruses are streaming through networks of interconnection. Humanity has an unprecedented opportunity to recognize WE are undeniably and unequivocally living and breathing in one unified interdependent {moving towards symbiotic} experience. In part, I wrote my book Living From the Center […]
Creative Connections

Recently I have noticed an increase in new partnerships and new groups spontaneously forming around me in response to creative impulses. I follow a nudge to connect or someone contacts me “out of the blue.” I have an initial idea about the purpose of the connection and turns out to differently; more magical, expansive, and exhilarating than I […]

Radiating Love

Settling inward as the leaves are off the trees following a stunning display of autumn colors here in Minnesota. Inside of me there has been a shift in my experience of Loving this year. Love feels more unconditional and Joy more causeless. I know Love as the Infinite Source, Love as the shining out that […]
