The Unknown is Here – What Now?

ve noticed it is the sense of the unknown that is the most alarming … not that they or a loved one will get sick … but the unknown. And the lack of control – hello, anyone’s Chief Operating Officer of Control having a field day right now? All the question marks about what will happen tomorrow … and the landscape of what life will look like post-virus is disconcerting to all of us. This article talks about how to confront the unknown and find peace.
I Didn’t Get It Until … Just Now!

I spent nine years in the creative hot zone of writing, editing, tearing apart and rebuilding, then writing and editing some more my just released book, The Ovarian Chronicles. And last week during a conversation with my writing group about releasing our books into the world, I had an epiphany thanks to one of my […]

Sick? Emotional? The Past’s Sneak Attack

For years, I’ve been Queen of the Mind / Body / Emotion / Spirit Connection … What that means is … I’m a dot-connector and always have been. As a kid, when I connected the dots logically in school, teachers smiled and complimented me saying I was a good student. When I connected the dots […]
Scars … Reminders to Celebrate or …

In this week’s episode of Your Heroine’s Journey, we dug into the meaty topic of “Scars … Reminders to Celebrate or …” and the truth is, often we do a lot of the “or” in that equation. Scars come in all shapes and sizes — physically visible on the skin, and then there are the […]
Your Heroine’s Journey!

If the classic Hero’s Journey is prompted by an external world call for change, the Heroine’s Journey is prompted by: 1. Feelings of “is this all there is?” 2. “I always really wanted to …” and 3. “This isn’t what I thought it would be like …” The Heroine’s Journey for today’s woman is about […]

The Winter Solstice is also the rebirth of light, in that each day becomes a bit longer after the Solstice. In the land of The Modern Goddess, we pause at the Winter Solstice to acknowledge the […]
Chunk It Down!

So, last week I talked about the distinction between Upgrade and Update – and that I was choosing to Upgrade as I chose my new home. Done! Signed last Friday, though not delivered until January. I won’t lie – even though I have been very consciously choosing to stand in the power of “Both/And” in […]
Update or Upgrade?

Several years ago, my mom asked me what the difference is between a security update and a security upgrade on her computer. I told her the updates are the included, ongoing patches to her existing program’s contract and that upgrades are offered when it is time to renew the subscription or get a new version […]
