Happy Halloween! It’s difficult to believe that the of October is near, and nearly the end of 2023. Yet miraculously the kids were ready to go trick or treating in spite of cold weather. Costumes didn’t turn out as expected, but at the end of the day, each kid pivoted and improvised within 10 minutes of leaving. It was beautiful to watch. It was inspiring to see how they were resillient and creative. One kid couldn’t fit a mask, so he drew his own on plain white paper, cut out eye holes so he could see, and taped it to his head. He didn’t care what others thought,... Continue Reading

Life happens. Life teaches us lessons if we only listen. We have to quiet the mind. We have to shut out the commotion and noise from the outside world.

I used to think that this only applied to women until I recently discovered through one of my podcast guests that men struggle with their self image... Continue Reading

“If I could see what others see I think I’d be surprised If I can only see myself Through someone else’s eyes …” These are the opening lines of a poem I wrote several years ago. I was inspired to write it for a close friend because I was sick and tired of listening to her tear herself down about everything. And I do mean everything. From her looks, her body, her mind, her relationships — the list went on and on. I was tired of her negative and deprecating self talk, and I was exhausted from building her up. It was a full time job and it was wearing me down. Besides, she was a beautiful... Continue Reading
