Seven Reflections on Discipline, Creativity, and Becoming Yourself My wise, talented, funny, and loving father says that Sunday is a disciplined day for him. In my experience of Dad, I think every day is a day of discipline! He is the most focused person I know, and he has a daily list of everything that’s […]
I danced my way into the new year, which was absolutely perfect for me because dancing is my favourite thing to do! Following that, I hosted a fire ceremony for the first full super moon of the year – that uproarious Wolf Moon – with my core tribe around me, and my kids and the […]
An invitation to come home to your own rhythm I’ve been learning so much about myself since having my Australian soul sister, Leisa Porteous-Semple, staying with me. She is a functional medicine gut specialist, and we’ve been besties since the moment we met in 2012. Over the years, we’ve travelled extensively together. She wanted to go […]
I want to share something personal with you today — something I’ve never been afraid to explore, but got called out on it today by a close friend and decided it was time to write about it. Years ago a client told me that most of the time I seemed like an angel, but at […]
Someone recently asked me why I do what I do. It’s a good question to ask yourself in every area of your life. When we know our motivation for why we do something, it takes on a much deeper meaning.

Most relationship problems aren’t about what’s said — they’re about what’s not clearly communicated. Here’s how to shift that and create connection instead of conflict. What I notice most in relationships of all kinds is the lack of clear communication. People assume what the other is thinking or feeling and either react or shut down — instead of […]
I am a highly positive person. I tend to lean on the side of the glass being half full. I retain hope and faith when things feel like they are falling apart. But that doesn’t mean that I am oblivious to my discomfort or the suffering of others. It doesn’t mean that I am not willing to talk about […]
Have you ever wondered why—even after doing so much inner work—your relationship with money still feels charged with stress, anxiety, or shame? Money, like anything else is energy. We give it a whole lot of power! And, we end up giving up our power to it, or the lack of it! Our relationship with […]
When we talk about giving up our power, most of us think about other people — our partners, parents, bosses, colleagues, or even “the system.” We imagine power as something that can be taken or controlled by someone outside of us.
