Today, I finally met in person a woman I’ve only ever seen on Zoom for the past two years. From our very first encounter, there was this intuitive, energetic recognition — as if I already knew her. All two square inches of her on that screen! From the start, we both sensed it: a soul […]
Getting Back On the Horse – or Whitehorses In This Case! In 2017 I sailed across the Atlantic Ocean on a 48 foot yacht with 4 men. We hit a squall half way across and had to cut the sail off as it had twisted, hit the water and started filling, pulling the boat over […]
My father who is 90 in less than a month, flew to England to visit with me and his grandchildren for a week. I drove him to Ilkley Swimming Pool every morning so he could keep his daily fitness routine of working out with light weights in the pool. I went home and made coffee. […]
(And Why Laying on the Forest Floor Might Be the Healing You’ve Been Looking For) Sometimes, when life feels too loud, too fast, or too much… the quiet answer is waiting under your feet. Literally. Dr. Zach Bush, MD, said it best: “When you lay on the forest floor, you’re not just resting—you’re receiving.” You’re […]
Most people think of birth as something that happens to us and then gets left behind. It’s over in a day, and then life begins. But here’s the truth: birth is life beginning. And it shapes everything that comes after. Not just in a symbolic or emotional way, but right down to your nervous system. The moment you’re […]
Our earliest experiences shape us more than we realize—especially the moment of our birth. Without even knowing it, we can carry deep, invisible vows that get formed in those first moments of life. Things like:“I have to struggle to survive.”“Love isn’t safe.”“It’s not safe for me to be here.” These beliefs aren’t made with words—they’re […]
Let’s talk about grudges. Not the loud, explosive kind—but the quiet ones. The ones that live under the surface. The ones you carry like a stone in your pocket, always there, always heavy. Maybe it’s an old friend who betrayed you. A parent who couldn’t love you the way you needed. A partner who left. […]
On my show Beyond Birth Trauma: From Burden to Brilliance, nothing is off the table. We talk about the things most people shy away from. The things labeled as too private, too weird, or too uncomfortable. Things like vaginas. Bacteria. Sex. Miscarriages. Postpartum depression. Abortion. The stuff that lives quietly in the shadows of birth and early life, but […]
I feel so grateful to have arranged a little staycation here in England. It gave me the perfect excuse to head down to London and Broadstairs in Kent—two beautiful places made even better by the company of dear friends I hadn’t seen in years. The trip started with a lovely surprise. Two women from my […]
In my last blog, I talked about the power of returning to the body to find where we’re still holding trauma. For me, a spontaneous trigger got me into my body, following the movement of my hands, and led to the release of a big, palpable piece of energy that had been locked inside me […]
