One of my clients sent me a frustrated email after going to a sold-out Justin Timberlake concert. She was inspired by his talent but also triggered because she felt she is not embracing her talent in the “effortless” and “big” way he is.

Read MoreThis past weekend a heartfelt dream of mine and something I’ve been working inwardly toward for the past three years, came true: I was ordained as a minister. It was one of the most deeply profound experiences of my life and touched a place inside that no external accomplishment ever has (or could). I share…
Read MoreYou don’t have to have it all figured out by 30 (or really by any age because life is a constant journey).

Read MoreThis past weekend I facilitated my first retreat at Kripalu, which is a destination on the East Coast where people go to experience the “yoga of life.” Every time I teach, I experience so much fulfillment. But this weekend I even got MORE of an extra special treat on a personal level . . .…
Read MoreA friend of mine called me last week and said she had something she needed to tell me. She prefaced it by telling me it was really awful, she was so ashamed, she couldn’t believe she was doing it and that she was so mad at herself. Before she even told me what it was,…
