    #MondayMantra Live a Life Worth Loving

    Do you love your life? I do!  If you aren’t totally in love with the life you’ve created for yourself, today is the day to begin resetting your intentions.   It’s likely that you already have many things in your life to be grateful for and that you can build on; you probably don’t need a complete life renovation, just some tweaks and shifts to increase your happiness. Begin with this positive mantra, and allow yourself to be open to any specific changes that you need to make moving forward.  “I Live a Life Worth Loving.”

    How to Live a More Joyful Life

    Yesterday I had the pleasure and privilege of being interviewed on a new podcast (more on this coming up) and one of the questions, and my answer, keeps coming back to me.  I was asked in effect about how I manage to be such a joyful person, to which I replied: “Part of it is probably in my DNA, but mostly it is my choice. I choose to seek and find joy in all situations and limit my time around negative people.”  I will be first to admit that this is not always easy to practice, and I don’t always…

    Sending Love is Always Worthwhile. ❤🦋

    You might not have all of the answers when facing life’s hard questions. You will not always know the perfect thing to say when someone you care about is grieving. You are going to find yourself in situations sometimes when you feel utterly powerless to make a difference, but trust me, dear one, there is always Love and it is always needed. You have the power in the depths of your heart to send Love… so don’t hold back!  I invite you to take a meditative moment now to imagine yourself sending waves and waves of Love to the people…

    This Is Why I March

    I was very honored to march today with 749,000 brothers and sisters in Los Angeles, California as part of the Women’s March- and it was magnificent! It was one of over 600 sister marches to the Women’s March on Washington, and the energy was incredibly Peaceful, exuberant, powerful, funny, and moving. Now, I understand that many people do not support the Women’s March, and that’s fine. I’m not going to shame anyone or call you disrespectful names. I honor your right to disagree or have a different opinion and I certainly don’t need to demean you. But I do want…

    #FridayFeels: Diversity, Not Division

    Today is an historic moment in the world. It is the day that America demonstrates the peaceful transition from one executive Administration to another as we willingly hand over control from President Barak Obama to President Donald Trump. I am not a Republican. I am not a Democrat. I am, first and foremost, a strong, white, mixed-race American woman of a certain age. I acknowledge my privileges as much as I acknowledge my obstacles. Whatever your political views, today marks an important and dare I say life-changing opportunity.  Here’s how I see it: It is our opportunity as Americans to…

    #FridayFeels Anything is Possible

    If you’ve known me for more than a minute or have been following me for a while, you know that I am a pretty open and positive person.  Sure, I have my up days and down days because, well, sometimes shitty things happen. I don’t try to hide the times I’m struggling or ignore things about society that bum me out. I believe that honestly sharing the journey is an important part of my story. Some days, however, I feel a stronger sense of that anything is possible optimism and a surge of positivity that I can’t contain.  It comes…

    #FridayFeels: Free!

    What would you do with a free day? Imagine what your day might look like if you suddenly didn’t have to do anything that was previously expected of you. Delicious, right? 24 hours of 100% YOUR CHOICE.  I found myself today with just such an opportunity, and I’m using it to catch up on some of the things I’ve been meaning to do but haven’t carved time out for. It’s barely afternoon and I already feel like I’ve accomplished a week’s worth of stuff. Drop off watch for engraving? Check. Schedule plumbers? Check. Grocery shopping (Amazon Fresh for the win!) –…
