Will You Help Me Get to the Finish Line?

Will You Help Me Get To The Finish Line? &Raquo; File 12

When Sex Meets God: a midlife story is almost ready to publish I’ve been on a roller coaster these last few months as I work to finish and publish my fourth book. This one is different. It’s personal because it’s my story, but it’s also universal and I know so many people will find themselves in it. When Sex Meets God: a midlife story, is about unraveling, finding personal truth, and reconciling inner battles, which ultimately leads to unleashing in a new way. Parts of the story are tragic and sad and other parts are awkward and amusing. Then there are the vulnerable... Continue Reading

Have You Joined My Launch Team Yet? &Raquo; File 23

A Depth Approach to Transitioning to the New Year

A Depth Approach To Transitioning To The New Year &Raquo; File 14

The Role of the Doorway It’s that time of year again. The momentum and anticipation started in the weeks leading up to the Thanksgiving holiday. For some, anxiety about family sets in quickly and for others it is indeed the most wonderful time of the year. Before we know it, we will find ourselves in the psychological space of new beginnings without really thinking too much about it. Maybe you always laugh and quickly come up with some resolutions right before or after the stroke of midnight. Or maybe you really do give it some serious thought, but no matter how determined and inspired... Continue Reading

What Does Brad Pitt Have to Do with Individuation?

What Does Brad Pitt Have To Do With Individuation? &Raquo; File 15

Finding Deeper Meaning in Your Film Viewing Experience. If you’re like me, you’ll go see a movie simply because Brat Pitt is in it. It doesn’t matter what role or how big a role, I’ll be there or be square. It’s been a while since a movie has intrigued me on a depth level, and I have to say it took me until the end of Bullet Train (Leitch & Fuqua, 2022) to appreciate the secret message that was being delivered via the collective unconscious, but I got it eventually. I haven’t fully processed it though, and this is one of those films I will have to go back and see, I’m not... Continue Reading

Still Stewing About the Last Fight with Your Romantic Partner?

Still Stewing About The Last Fight With Your Romantic Partner? &Raquo; File 19

The 3 Ps: A New Framework for Finding the Deeper Purpose of Relationships This really happened a few weeks ago on my morning walk. After the brilliant idea burst out of my unconscious, I laughed at an obvious hidden motivation behind my obsession with this daily ritual. I now was a living example of how moving your body (the feminine) in partnership with the mind (the masculine) invites innovative ideas to take shape as they burst into consciousness. I was contemplating how to begin a depth psychology coaching session with a couple. There had been an unusually dramatic conflict the week before.... Continue Reading

What Complexes And Relationships Reveal About Your Deeper Self? &Raquo; File 41

Did you get my book yet? Thank you if you did, and please consider leaving a review on Amazon or Goodreads. If you haven’t purchased it yet, consider getting it from Bookshop.org if you want to support local bookstores. Or, you can now listen to me read Chapters 1-14 on my podcast, Dose of Depth. Chapter 13–Complexes Complexes simply are patterns of behavior and thinking that are rooted in our earliest childhood years. Simply is not how they manifest however, and many patterns that were once neutral and helpful can suddenly become problematic. Because complexes get triggered or are... Continue Reading

Corporations & Our Collective Shadow: A Conversation With Dr. Elizabeth Martin - Podcast Transcript &Raquo; File 43

Hey blog readers, have you checked out my podcast – Dose of Depth? Through conversation, stories, and education, we explore the deeper meaning of ordinary life experiences. I’m nearing 1,000 downloads of 30 different episodes. Listen to engaging conversations with authors, PhDs, a yoga instructor, a relationship coach . . . We take on topics like integrating marginalized people into fictional works, finding the personal in the universal, tending images of collective fear, whether Christianity can evolve out of patriarchy, creative monogamy, dark religion, and the deeper meaning of romantic... Continue Reading

Injuries And Illness Can Be Messages From The Unconscious: How To Explore Their Deeper Meaning &Raquo; File 55

In a recent episode of my podcast – Dose of Depth, I continue reading from my book, Your Soul is Talking. Are You Listening? 5 Steps to Uncovering Your Hidden Purpose. By learning the language of the unconscious, you will notice the subtle messages a deeper part of you is sending to get your attention. After sharing all the different ways your unconscious speaks, my book goes on to offer a framework for decoding and finding meaning in the messages. Sometimes, flashes of insight come quick and other times it takes months and even years to fully grasp the meaning of the image. My personal... Continue Reading

What is Generation Z Mirroring Back to Us?

What Is Generation Z Mirroring Back To Us? &Raquo; File 21

Generation X is what they named my species, and I am proud to say I was part of the first batch. We resisted the baby boomer view of the world. Maybe after having been swept up in social justice and anti-war movements, baby boomers overcompensated in their zeal for personal achievement and wealth accumulation. Maybe they had a right to focus on themselves for a while. Did it get out of hand? I don’t know. I’m not an expert in that. What I remember about my own coming of age were two things. The first was feeling excited about possibilities to do things women hadn’t done before. Of course,... Continue Reading

The Hidden Agenda of Yoga in Midlife

The Hidden Agenda Of Yoga In Midlife &Raquo; File 8

In my most recent ,podcast episode, I chat with yoga instructor, ,Julie Breedlove Montemerlo, of Wise Waves Wellness, who describes herself as a music lover, mother, wife, optimist, marketing professional, and constant student of life. We talk about yoga but not in the way you might think. By now, you might have heard me describe my experience two years ago of getting up the courage to leave my hometown behind, along with my professional persona to go live in a Florida beach town. The ghost-town feel of my two-day stay in Nashville on the way down seemed to be a perfect metaphor for this in... Continue Reading
