Since the auspiciousness of this event has so many implications, I’d like to share this article. Please read it and join me in paying attention to […]

What Are You Choosing – Love or Fear?
The events I experienced last weekend are in stark contrast to each other. I attended a loving celebration of life and my husband’s joyous concert while also tracking the horrifying news of hatred and fear in Charlottesville, VA. It made me aware that we have a responsibility to choose between love and fear. The choice […]
Are You An Unsung Hero?
I’ve just returned from training and consulting in Tulsa, Oklahoma and am humbled by the wonderful people doing great work there. This isn’t the first time I’ve felt this way – it seems everywhere I go I am awed by what I witness and learn. It’s the perfect antidote to the negative things we hear […]
Taking The Next Big Step
The year is already past the 6-month mark and you might be wondering how time has flown so quickly. Those 2017 changes you hoped you’d make may be looking iffy at this point. What can you do to get refocused so the next big step become clearer and easier? I just finished conducting a class […]
How To STOP Secret Fears
We all do it. Look completely normal on the outside, like everything is fine and on the inside wage a battle with secret, fearful thoughts. It’s the nasty story line we tell ourselves that’s only aired when we feel desperate. Yet, it keeps us tied in knots and can interfere with our ability to be […]
Ways Your SOUL Guides You To Freedom

For many of us, there is a push-pull dynamic between doing what seems necessary to create a secure lifestyle and doing what really speaks to us. Which call should we […]
What We Take For Granted…
Every day since returning from Cuba, I pause and give thanks for the simple niceties of my live. It’s like I’ve refocused a lens, causing me to look at things differently. It’s reinforced observations I had last summer after staying in the rural Volta Region of Ghana in Western Africa. In my work, I often […]
What Does It Take To Achieve Greatness?
I just finished reading the autobiography of our interpreter in Cuba, Alberto Rivero Gonzalez. (See reference) It was humbling to learn of the adversity and trials he went through to reach his dream of greatness. So often we think that people are simply lucky, get all the breaks, or are just in the right place […]
Lessons From CUBA – Sixty Years After the REVOLUTION
It’s been two weeks since our trip to Cuba and I’m still pondering the experience. What we saw was an amazing study in contrast. 60 years post revolution, Cuba now exists in third world poverty, yet the Cuban people continue to exude a dignity, intelligence and tenacity for rising above and excelling in their circumstances […]
Lessons from CUBA – The Power of INSPIRATION
I just returned from two weeks in Cuba, where I took a deep dive into their culture, thanks to the expertise of the fine people associated with the Martin Luther King Center in Havana. Without wading into the complexity of Cuba’s political situation and our equally complex role in it, I’d like to point […]
