I Didn’t Get It Until … Just Now!

what are the opportunities if I don't control this situation

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 […]

Popularity? The Imposter Syndrome, Authenticity and Self Love

Lately, I’ve had conversations with clients and friends about comparing their social media numbers to others in their field, and even to their friends and family. When their posts don’t get likes or shares, they don’t feel popular. When they speak their truth in a post, they feel like the odd one out if people […]

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 […]

Empty and Stuffed

Empty is a word that we don’t like to use to describe ourselves – garbage cans are preferred empty, we often empty a chip or cookie bag, a vacant lot is empty until a home is built.  But for a person to feel empty, vulnerable, well … that must mean there is something wrong with […]

Connected!

It was a normal … usual … average … day. I slid behind the wheel of my car to run a few errands and tossed my purse onto the passenger seat as I’d done about a million times before. And for some reason, I really heard it that day. The Bluetooth thing-a-ma-jig in my car […]

Winter Solstice Opportunity

Friday, December 21, 2018, is the Winter Solstice, the longest, darkest night of the year in the northern hemisphere. 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 […]
