‘Don’t talk to Strangers’ is practical advice that’s drummed into us for our own safety when we’re children, and the reasons for this don’t need to be questioned. However, as adults, if we want to play with Synchronicity and allow for profound messages to arrive magically in our lives, it’s critical that we learn the […]
Having children is at times a mountain to climb with hidden pitfalls waiting for us to slip up and fall on our faces. Yet, when we get back up, there is the most beautiful sunrise. We start again, we learn, improve, and adapt. There is no roadmap to the top of the mountain. We make […]
“Spring makes its own statement, so loud and clear that the gardener seems to be only one of the instruments, not the composer.” ~ Geoffrey B. Charlesworth Every month, the New Moon is the perfect time for new beginnings, dealing with change, and to pause and reflect. On April 1 (1:24 AM Central Time; the […]
One of my favorite books, The Celestine Prophecy, introduced me to the idea of Control Dramas, of which there are four (Intimidator, Interrogator/Critic, Aloof, and Poor Me).

However, if you’ve recently journeyed through divorce, the festive period can be one of the most emotionally challenging times to handle. If you’ve split from the mother/father of your children and you’ll be alternating Christmas’ yearly […]
Creating and maintaining healthy boundaries is a life skill. It requires a confidence that allows us to feel as though we deserve to be respected, and though it seems many of us are born with it, often it slowly wanes over time. As our childish innocence falls to the side, we try to figure out […]

I learned a great deal about the power of choice from some circumstances in which the person involved had little or no choice available. I’d like to share a few of those stories with you here.
