Try Nonviolent Communication – To Make Yourself Understood And Reduce Conflict
The use of nonviolent communication to make yourself understood and reduce conflict is a perspective we don’t usually consider. I’m exploring it because many people I work with have struggles around not feeling understood. The pain this causes is often the source of disagreements in relationships and work settings.

How To Find Deeper Meaning All Around You
Finding meaning in life is embedded in all my work and what Lee and I do. You might say it’s like a mission statement if I actually had one. It occurred to me it is very important, yet, I haven’t considered how I actually do it. Let me see if writing helps me define it. […]

This holiday was spent at my family sanctuary – Lake Sunapee NH. It has been in my half-sister’s side of the family for over 80 years. The beautiful old rambling Victorian home built in the 1800s, that was once an Inn, on the tip of a small island with a view of a lighthouse, mountains […]
Needed Now – Advocacy for Your Best Interests
There is a fight ahead for us and advocacy is needed in your best interests. I didn’t fully appreciate that I was living in a time of liberal thinking that could all be taken away so easily and systematically. Now I recognize that “conservative values” is just code language for greed, power, and control. This […]
Finding Your Inner Wisdom
For most people, wisdom seems to be the pearls that are born out of difficulties. Like the grain of sand in the oyster, over time the constant turning of the experience in our mind produces a jewel of new awareness. It is from the other side of hardship that we often find the lessons in […]
