Five years into her marriage she knew it wasn't going to work, yet she continued on for 20 more years only to realize that she had been hiding and functioning as a single parent for most of that time. It wasn't until she divorced, several months ago, that she really become hopeful for living the dream life she had always wanted -- and amazingly, without any bitterness or resentment for her ex -- who she now considers to be a positive and contributing co-parent.  

I'll be posting a little...

I wanted to share a few reflections on my Podcast Interview with Jodie Stein. In this video, I share what I feel are the best paths to healing and walk you through a healing exercise.

This month, our community is focusing on healing through spirit-focused techniques, so it seemed perfect to speak with Jodie Stein, MFT, a therapist located in the Bay Area, CA, trained in attachment focused, body-based therapies and drawing on nature, creativity and Spirit for healing.

The thing that caught my attention right away was her healing hikes for women in relationship transitions. This guided (physically,...

I wanted to share some #reflections that have been going around in my mind since my talk with Randi Buckley on #boundaries.

Randi Buckley, creator of “Healthy Boundaries for Kind People,” and I first spoke about boundaries about two years ago and now we’ve reconvened to explore new avenues to healthy boundaries.

Boundary setting is a practice that often starts in early childhood (with siblings at home or with others on the playground). We begin to experience those feelings of discomfort when kids and adults cross our boundaries – even if we don’t realize that’s what’s...

So the question is how much capacity do you have to be yourself in your relationships? In my podcast when I was interviewing, “Mr. Farnsworth”. He realized his marriage was not the best and healthiest place for him.

When it comes to a holiday, like Valentine’s Day, he experienced the holiday, as a painful reminder that his relationship wasn’t working. When he was alone and not taking care of himself, that holiday was also painful for him. Now that he’s in a...

Here's an example of my visioning exercise. Maybe you’ll start thinking about yours – and maybe you can join our...

I get a lot of people asking me to help them with the fallout of divorce. 

The traditional model of how one gets divorced creates so much tension. We’re given a model to become estranged from a person we might have been with for decades. This is a way community and family can feel comfortable -- if we truly separate. We shouldn’t care for (let alone still love in some way), talk to, or be friends with that person again. We’re supposed to separate our lives as much...
