For a bit of time, I was doing creativity coaching — helping passionate women by giving them feedback and structure of what could guide them to make their creative ideas a reality. Then, this theme kept occurring over and over in the nearly 20 women I was mentoring during this time: I’m not feeling creative.[…]

Are you feeling burned out?
I woke up this morning burnt out. I was mothering my toddler last night throughout the night. Today feels foggy and very sluggish. I had a big ol’ list to tackle today, but instead I’m going to nap while my son naps. What do you do when you feel burnt out from life circumstances, and[…]
The surprising end to being lost
Not all those who wander are lost – J.R.R Tolkien I’ve been reading fairy tales again. Thanks to motherhood for bringing those back to my life. One of the things I’ve noticed about fairy tales is that, usually, the main character finds themselves lost. And then he/she experiences magic, in some form, while lost.[…]
When you post everything, what is left?
Social media. My love/hate relationship with the tool is so real. I’ve been thinking of it lately because: a few of my clients keep having this reoccurring theme of social media burn out that shows up as something “wrong” with them. I disconnect from social media at least once a month for a few days[…]
What we see is our guidance for life
Recently, I was having trouble seeing. As someone who has either worn contacts or glasses for almost 22 years, this is nothing new. Usually, it has to do with not eating the right food, or being a bit dehydrated. Because, blood sugar and eyesight are super linked, did you know? A lesson I learned, after[…]

The illusion it could be different
A few days ago, as I planned my instagram posts for this week, I found this great reminder: Let go of the illusion that it could be any different. These words struck me — kinda like a bolt of lighting. You see, memory is this tricky tricky thing. It’s been said that we never quite[…]
Have you cast yourself out?
Often, when we are feeling bad about something – we feel like there’s something wrong with us. Tara Brach, who is an inspiration to me and this post, names this sensation as the trance of unworthiness. I bet you can relate – feeling like if you’re sad or disappointed – you’re broken. And if you’re[…]
This person will find your truth
The past month or two has included many not so subtle moments that reminded me: you gotta take care of yourself. Migraines. Insomnia. Relationships (toxic ones) that just need to be let go – finally. Things have bubbled up and really – it’s been an ultimate time of learning. I’m at a loss of what[…]
Seeking what’s the next in your life requires this…
“For years I wanted a good marriage, and to become a mother. Now that I have what I’ve wanted…I’m feeling stuck.” I said to my dearest friend. “Well, it sounds like you need to figure out what you want now,” she so simply reflected to me. Her simple question stopped me dead in my tracks.[…]
