Yesterday morning my daughter hopped into bed with me, snuggled in tight then asked me what she was in a past life. Me: You believe in past lives? (We had never discussed this.) Marlie: Yeah, I think I was a cat lover. Me: Or a cat. That could be why you like them so much. But you know, time is a human construct. Truly there are no past lives as they’re all happening right now. But it’s easier for our human minds to process linear experiences. Marlie: You were a star. Then an angel. Then a peacock and then human. Probably, a queen. Me: You might be on to something little one. But I definitely wasn’t a queen…

A Renaissance Glow

Posted on March 5, 2018

People often come to me asking what books to read, what I find the most helpful in self-help/personal development or where to find the answers they seek. They’ve read my latest blog posts wanting to connect point a to point b making c. The truth is I’ve been working in these things for years, if not a lifetime. Eight years ago armed with my insatiable desire to know this vast realm of unknowns, I opened up wide to take in all there is out there. Reading, sharing, holding difficult conversations and others that lit me up. It’s been a renaissance of beliefs and knowing. A renaissance glow. Have I taken it all in? Nope, not even close. There is only so…

In my belief, we have a part of our self that speaks through intuition, nudges, and resonance as well as holds the key to unlocking our greatest desires, dreams, creative aspirations – whatever calls to be expressed from your soul. My intention with Divine Fusion is to take this relationship and break it down into practical steps to help share with those seeking such connections. This is a path that opened up for me years ago the moment I sat down to write the novel whispering to me on the inside. Before I even sat down to write, I was given a sign that literally created a divide between the way I defined reality and what I know and what reality…

Brave Fear

Posted on February 16, 2018

Do you have fears? What ifs and bungee cords holding you back from where you want to go or who you’d like to be? Do they stem from the past? Or are they potentials you feel looming in the future? I have fears too. I shared a post about following your joy, and it’s so important to crack open the moments you live to find the inner light to guide. That is the deepest anchor you can find to help you on your way. But that’s not meant to negate inner fears that can rear their ugly head too. When I was little I was bit by a goose on my thumb. I was bout 5 years old and at Woodland…

Peaks and Valleys

Glacier Park has always been a family favorite. With its high mountain peaks married with deep valleys named by the ice masses slowly carving the rocky facades down over time. We owned a cabin, built by my Grandpa Fay, tucked into a grassy meadow across from the North Fork River. In exchange for building the other cabins in Havretown, the name of this crop of homes away from home, the landowners annexed a parcel of land with just enough space for our modest three-room cabin. It was just off the main road, passed the Ranger’s station, after a log gate and paddle lock, where we’d wind our way in our green Toyota wagon on a dirt path until we reached the second…

I recently kayaked down the Smith River coursing through Redwoods National Park. My daughter and I were in one kayak intent to get downstream in one piece. It sounded easier than it played out. She’s nine, has never paddled and somehow was able to completely counteract all my efforts. Whether turning, slowing down, guiding us through rapids, it didn’t matter what I did, she somehow countered it and we’d drift aimlessly downstream. I was so frustrated, and afraid, that I asked her to stop paddling through the still waters and the rapids. These were easier grade rapids, but that didn’t matter. I was gripping my oars, worried about what lurked around the corner. I had never been here before,…

Follow your joy

I was reminded tonight how often we can stress or overly identify with no pain no gain. When did the notion sprout that what naturally lights us up, our joy, isn’t the guideposts for the right now’s and the next steps? Instead of tapping into what flows, naturally from what feels right, we plan and calculate and goal post. We mistrust that we know the way. We cut ourself off from the very well-spring that guides us, always. This isn’t to say you won’t ride passed the edge of ease as you lean into what you desire to learn or experience, courting discomfort. However, at the same time you will feel the flow even then if you open up to allow…
