And So, One Door Begins to Close…

I’ve shared before about trusting the unfolding of things, and the ensuing liminal space we are sometimes thrust into. My family and friends often laugh and roll their eyes when they hear that I am moving again, as I have moved over 55 times in my lifetime. Sometimes within the same town and sometimes toContinue reading “And So, One Door Begins to Close…”

Are you a Wounded Leader?

It’s not one of Jung’s traditional archetypes.. There is, of course, the Wounded Healer, who strives to serve others in their healing all the while facing their own old wounds, or one that has been wounded in the process of helping others. But what about the Wounded Leader, the one who’s in charge of others’Continue reading “Are you a Wounded Leader?”

Minding the Story May Newsletter!

It’s Time for a Story… Once upon a time… Ok, maybe not that kind of story. About 30 years ago, I was working in the entertainment industry, working for publicists and dealing with enormous egos and unhealthy coping mechanisms. Following what I had thought to be my dreams, but instead was a nightmare of verbalContinue reading “Minding the Story May Newsletter!”

The Shadow’s Mirror

Shadow Work is one of the most important inner work processes you can do for yourself and for others… There is so much darkness and hidden from our view… why wouldn’t you want to shine a light into those places? I most often work with individuals to unearth and face the stories “below the surface”Continue reading “The Shadow’s Mirror”

All Things and People Can (and Do) Have Shadows…

Even me… Even you… Because all that’s really needed for shadows to be present are: 1) A light source2) Something blocking that light3) Some surface for the shadow to be cast onto (a wall, the ground) We are used to seeing this phenomenon when we are out on a sunny day. ☀ The sun isContinue reading “All Things and People Can (and Do) Have Shadows…”

What Does Your Internal Sky Look Like?

Is it: A) Bright and clear?B) Dark and moody?C) Colorful and wondrous?D) All of the above? Last night, I found myself craving the ocean. I used to live right on the coast, but now, after I moved to the river (which is, itself, a beautiful wonder!), I find myself still longing for that open expanseContinue reading “What Does Your Internal Sky Look Like?”

You are Not Someone Else’s Story of You…

Though you may have unknowingly taken on that fairy tale as who you are. You are not really even your own story of who you think you are… as we construct our reactions and reality through the echoes of old protection mechanisms hiding the precarious fragile you, you secretly think yourself to be. But youContinue reading “You are Not Someone Else’s Story of You…”

Life is a “Yes, And.”

Not everything is “Either, Or…” “Yes, And…” allows for a space to see others, the world, and yourself more clearly. “Either, Or” shuts it down. Your perspective is not the ONLY correct perspective. Awareness allows you to see that other people’s perspectives arise from their own prior experiences, fears, and hopes about their wellbeing, asContinue reading “Life is a “Yes, And.””
