May you find something of value in what I share.
We need repetition
WE OFTEN NEED TO HEAR SOMETHING OVER AND OVER - perhaps an idea, suggestion, some advice - multiple times, in different ways and at different times before it sinks in. A recent conversation reminded me of this. Remember this and have compassion and patience… ~…for the...
Getting more comfortable with ourselves
LIFE, IN PART, IS A PROCESS OF GETTING MORE COMFORTABLE with ourselves, such that we share a little more honestly about who we really are, how we truly feel, being vulnerable more often, revealing our authentic self. It’s about trusting that there are folks who will...
Let it sit
LET IT SIT. The concern over that thing, the problem you’re having - whatever it is - just let it sit for awhile without focusing on it. Take a pause - maybe a few minutes, a day, a week or more depending on the nature of the issue - give it a moment. Refocus onto...
A variation on the golden rule
MANY OF US HAVE HEARD what is sometimes called the golden rule: Treat others as you would have others treat you. But what if we were to consider the phrase with this slight adjustment: TREAT YOURSELF AS YOU WOULD TREAT OTHERS. So often we’re harder on ourselves than...
Cut yourself some slack
Someone recently commented to me that they found me to be very self-aware and kind to myself. It’s interesting to hear how someone else views us, isn’t it? It sparked me to contemplate a little. I suppose I endeavour to… ~ CUT MYSELF SOME SLACK AND GO EASY ON MYSELF....
Spiritual guidance and where it comes from
ON SPIRITUAL GUIDANCE AND WHERE IT COMES FROM. I’m not in the business of telling anyone that they have spirit guides, totem animals or angels working with them - nor am I in the business of telling anyone that they DON’T have any of the above. WHAT I AM ABOUT IS...
You complete the energy of the space
YOU ARE VALUABLE to those around you and beyond. Keep that in your focus – ahead of any self-critical thoughts and ideas of ‘not enough’ or ‘I keep messing up’ or [insert self-critical thought here]. If played too frequently such thoughts erode your self-confidence....
Worrying less, trusting more
THE LESS I WORRY ABOUT THINGS THE BETTER I FEEL, PHYSICALLY. At least that’s what I’m discovering. I know it’s not a revolutionary idea – scientific studies have shown that stress and worry have an impact on our physical body, even in ways we would never think they...
The value of small interactions
BEEN FEELING LIKE YOU’RE NOT DOING A ‘GOOD ENOUGH’ JOB? Focusing on the mistakes you’ve made? Struggling to see any positive impact you’re making? Feeling like you’re not noticed or valued? If so, I invite you to remember: ~ the grocery clerk who smiled at you because...
Life as an experiment not a performance
WHAT IF WE TREATED LIFE MORE LIKE AN EXPERIMENT THAN A PERFORMANCE? How would that change our approach to our day-to-day experiences? A performance or presentation often comes with it a sense of appearing polished, well-practiced, being an expert, and perhaps a desire...
A little about anger
I READ THIS LOVELY ARTICLE ABOUT ANGER in the magazine Lion’s Roar, Nov 2022 issue - these were the pieces stuck out for me that I felt called to share: ‘Anger is something most of us try to avoid. Yet … we can observe the source of our anger – and the source of all...
Shifting envy to inspiration
WHEN WE FIND SOMETHING WE ENVY ABOUT ANOTHER PERSON - perhaps we’re comparing ourselves to them and saying to ourselves how much we wish we could be more like them, maybe even feeling down on ourselves for not being ‘as good at [x]’ as we find them to be in some way -...
You don’t need to be fixed
BEING VULNERABLE ABOUT BEING ANNOYED. There was a day recently that I was annoyed. There was no reason ‘on paper’ to be annoyed at this thing. [Interesting side-note I've since learned in conversation with a friend since then - that the term ‘on paper’ can just be a...
Following what sparks your interest
FOLLOW YOUR EXCITEMENT. I have often written about how it’s important to explore and follow the thing that lights you up – even a little. But by following it, you might not end up there – where ‘there’ is the thing that initially sparked your interest. Indeed there...
Accept the joy without wondering where it’s been
IF AND WHEN YOU HAVE SOME ENTHUSIASM, you feel happier, more energetic, a glimmer of excitement, a shift – follow that – follow your energy. Curb the temptation to focus on why you haven't felt that way until now, for such a long time, or even why it wasn't there just...
Curious? Let's chat!
Exploring your intuitive connection is personal.
You want to work with someone you trust and with whom you feel comfortable.
I want to make sure that what you're looking for is something I'm able to provide.
Let's have a conversation to see whether it feels like a good fit to work together.
