Why the Wilderness Changes You and Calls You Back to Alignment Have you ever stepped away from your life for a while and come back realizing you can’t do things the same way anymore? That’s where I’ve been from time to time. I was not lost, not stuck, just in the wilderness. If you’ve ever been there, you know it’s not a place you choose lightly. But it is a place that changes you. What the Wilderness Actually Does It strips things down: the noise, the pressure, the

How Shiny Object Syndrome Pulls You Away From Alignment Welcome to what I call the crossroads of progress and distraction, because growth expands your horizons but it also opens the door to shiny object syndrome. Ever feel like you’re starting over again? Not because you failed, but because something new caught your attention, looked promising, and made you wonder, “Wait, is this the thing I’ve been missing?” The Problem Isn’t Opportunity, It’s Overload We live in a world where there is always a better strategy, a faster system,

Many women discover that midlife reinvention begins right here, when the roles that once defined them start to shift.

How to Rebuild Your Life One Step at a Time What if choosing joy while moving a mountain is less about emotion and more about the decisions you make each day? Personal, state, country, and world adversity emerges in cycles. No one should be surprised, because there’s never anything new under the sun. It’s part of exposing lies and what’s wrong with a system so that it can be corrected. It’s something we can all be grateful for, if we’re willing to look at the truth. Let’s take

At a foundational level, your body is constantly scanning for one thing: am I safe, or am I in danger?

While this is often simplified into three categories, there are actually four core nervous system

How Faith And Grace Transform Anger Into Wisdom Righteous anger is something many people struggle to process. Yesterday I was talking with a client who realized out loud that she needs to finally get a handle on the anger she feels toward certain people and situations, especially after all she’s given over the years: time, energy, loyalty, and love.
