Now, don’t get me wrong, I’ve always been a sucker for a good fairy tale. Just like millions of others, I grew up knowing the stories of Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and all the other super-star princesses, and I loved them all. The girl is in trouble and then, Prince Charming rides in to carry her […]
One morning as I was writing in my daily gratitude journal, I was overcome with a deep and profound appreciation for imagination. My own, as well as Imagination on a much broader scope. As we watch children move through life, we can see we are all born with a vast sense of possibility. There are […]
The Ego and it’s conditioned behavioral patterns often stand in the way of aligning with our true Self and living our life’s true purpose. The Ego is a construct of your physical life and experiences. The Ego learns to accept or reject aspects of Self, based on life experiences and social feedback. The Ego acts […]
Time and again, I’ve seen articles, posts, and quotes that advise, “If you want to be more positive, remove negative people from your life.” And when I’ve read this advice, I always have an intense internal reaction.

The stress created by conversations related to political ideologies only seems to increase over time. It is […]
I’ve never been the best at taking care of myself. I’m not sure where the disinterest comes from, but I do know that I feel like my physicality holds me back from becoming all that I am truly capable of being. I know that I am a soul in human form, here to grow through […]
