Managing Change
One Bright Act of Grace at a Time
A dear friend recently shared a story that stirred something deep in my heart. It’s a story originally told by author Elizabeth Gilbert, and it beautifully reminded me of something many of us forget: That we each have the power to bring light into the world – even when life feels dim. Let me share…
Continue ReadingAre You Listening to Your Soul?
“Frustration and anxiety come from not listening to the soul.” Those words stopped me in my tracks. I read them again – slower this time – allowing them to echo within me. Something deep stirred. A truth I could no longer ignore: I hadn’t been listening to my soul. It wasn’t the first time I’d…

What if I told you that suffering – while very real in its feeling – is not inevitable? That pain is not always a punishment, and discomfort not something to fear or avoid? This truth can be hard to swallow at first. Especially when we’re right in the middle of heartache, confusion, loss, or fear.…

As the years go by, I find myself valuing the need for stillness, silence, and space more than ever. It’s not that I don’t cherish my time with family and friends – quite the opposite. But I’ve been feeling an increasing pull toward a deeper connection with myself, a calling that requires me to explore…

Have you ever felt like life is a classroom, presenting you with daily lessons that invite or challenge you to grow?

In my journey of writing my next book, I’ve been reflecting on a vital lesson I’ve shared with many coaching clients: the importance of defining our core values.

Over my many ‘interesting’ years of living, loving, and learning through life, I’ve come to integrate four key truths which allow me to take full responsibility for my life: I deserve to be here. I deserve to be heard. I deserve to be healed. I deserve to be happy. I’ve struggled with each aspect during…
