You know how it feels when somebody doesn’t respect your boundaries and they cross that line? You feel like they don’t see or hear you! And you may wonder, what is the problem? But what I want to ask you is, have you actually communicated your boundaries clearly? Boundaries are not just a visible line […]
It’s important to let go of secret expectations because often we feel let down by people; our friends, and maybe even by our kids. I’m not talking about when we’ve made a plan and somebody doesn’t show up. That’s something else. I’m talking about when we haven’t communicated something that we want, expect, or assume […]
I’m in my new office, in my new house with bubble wrap everywhere. No pictures on the walls yet, but I’m doing my best to sort through all of the boxes. Moving for anyone is not really a fun process. It’s stressful and tiring. But it’s also exciting! I’ve been focusing on the joy of […]

I hope you all had a very Happy Christmas, Happy Hanukkah happy whatever tradition it is that you celebrate, or don’t celebrate. Whatever you were doing, or not doing over this holiday time, I hope that you did it with joy and love in your heart because that is the purpose of everything. I was […]
