Opportunity or Control?
I ping-ponged between my happy-go-lucky-sunshine-self and hot-head-know-it-all Aries in my younger years. I learned in my twenties that my flash-point anger was one way I tried to control situations. I quickly realized opportunities diminished when I lost my happy-go-lucky-sunshine-self. These days, I know that opportunity for all manner of unexpected and amazing things comes in […]
Vulnerability and Strength
There’s an old saying that goes something like: We must learn to bend like the willow tree or we may snap like the mighty oak. I love watching the sway of willow trees in the wind. There is a gracefulness and beauty as their limbs flutter. Allowing yourself to flow and dance in life’s winds can […]
Build Your Self Love Muscles!
A client once said to me, “I hate who I have become.” I replied, you aren’t that damn Chief Operating Officer of Control Mask, you’ve just been in the habit of wearing it for so long, you have come to think it is you. We took a deep dive into that mask and once she […]
Invisibility in Middle Age
In exploring the great invisibility of middle-aged women, I decided to do my geek out thing and look up the definition of invisible in several dictionaries. Whether as a noun or adjective, invisible speaks to something or someone being unrecognized or ignored and often, marginalized as a result. Let that settle in. We aren’t seen. […]

The Power Of The Middle Part 2
About two years ago I unwittingly stumbled upon what I now know is the cultural invisibility of women in their middle years. Clients shared about feeling overlooked at work in spite of their loyalty as an employee. Single clients and friends talked about feeling unnoticed by appropriately aged men in the vicinity of young women […]
Vulnerability and Truth
Isn’t it funny, how much we want people to be honest with us yet we can get a little less than truth-telling with ourselves about the hard stuff? It is vulnerable to know our own truths. I’m an ace at ignoring truths that are doing their best to get my attention. I indulge in busyness, […]
Mercury Retrograde Relief!
I don’t remember ever having so many pre-Mercury Retrograde shenanigans … ever, and that’s saying something, y’all! This morning, after the ninety-ninth thing went sideways on me, instead of crawling under my bed and hiding like a good kitty, I remembered I’d created this visualization a few years ago. I listened and it was like […]
The Power of the Middle
It seems we Modern Goddesses are in the Middle. The Middle of personal growth. The Middle of spiritual evolution. The middle of our unique transitions. The Middle of nasty politics. The Middle of taking care of aging parents, or children, or both. The Middle of life. The Middle There are some awesome things about the […]
