The Productivity Map in Your Period
In my coaching program we dive into this subject in great detail, understanding the nuances of feminine productivity and how it helps us create the life and business we love. A woman’s body, like the seasons of the year, goes through four main phases in each cycle of 29 and ½ days that correspond with the cycles of the moon. Each phase brings with it a unique set of hormonal, physical, ... Read the Post

Creative Problem Solving with Zen Concepts
Feelings of stuckness and overwhelm can paralyze us or break our confidence. We try harder but as a result we move further from the quiet, still voice that does indeed have creative solutions to our problems. Sometimes we have to step back and even walk away. At a time when we’re filling our minds, homes and bodies with unnecessary stuff to prevent from feeling the truth of who we are, ... Read the Post
Finding Clarity and Peace Through Primary & Secondary Emotions
One of my clients is going through some big life changes. She's stepping into and owning her power. But as women this isn’t always easy, especially if these changes are at the workplace. We’re programmed to not upset the apple cart and boy, she is really upsetting the apple cart, leaving a toxic work environment that isn’t serving her well ... Read the Post
Email: Evil Deathtrap or Divine Tool?
Can you guess the first topic we dive into, in my coaching program? Email. As ambitious, spectacular-at-what-we-do women, we know that email plays a big role in how and when things get done. But-a-but-but-but. Email can become a deathtrap if we don’t watch out. Like T-rex in the Jurassic Park movie, it can roar, command our attention and shred every other to-do item on our list to ...

Meditating and feeling like sh*t? Here’s why…
I received an email from a woman yesterday. She wrote: “I did a meditation on Friday and was really into it but right after I came out of it, I felt like crying. I was concentrating on breathing in and letting out bad energy. Do you think it was the bad energy leaving me?” If you’ve ever felt terrible after meditation, then take heart. It happens to ...

Flexibility, Palm Trees and the Best Laid Plans
Early on in my spiritual journey I learned a very valuable lesson: flexibility is the key to happiness and inner peace. Here’s what was happening to me so far: I had expectations and I had plans. Everything was carefully planned to the day and the dollar. However, like frisky, unpredictable puppies, neither my expectations nor my plans were falling in line with what I wanted. I planned ...

17 Ways to Create Boundaries and Say Hell No
Last week, I wrote a post on Facebook that garnered a LOT of interest, shares and discussion in the community. I talked about my struggles with setting boundaries when I started my coaching practice. I talked about how, after a while, the joy and freedom I'd hoped to experience with my work started to elude me. I'd find myself exhausted, incapable of bringing my best self to the work I loved and ... Read the Post
Unwind, Relax and Detox With This Luxurious Ritual
In the United States, approximately 82,000 toxins are in use, but only a fourth have been tested for toxicity. Toxins are in the air we breathe, the food we eat, the medications we take and in the water we drink. Cleansing or detoxification is the body’s way of removing and metabolizing these dangerous compounds. It is a process the body does naturally without us even knowing it. But sometimes it ...

Unexpected Kindness and the Duality of Yin and Yang
Over the last few days I’ve had the honor to receive some incredible kindness. My dear friend made time from her busy schedule to help manage my table at the Vikasa Expo. A stranger at Starbucks paid for my tea. Another stranger paid my toll at the toll booth. Truth is we’re constantly being showered by love and kindness. Sometimes our minds are pre-occupied and we don’t see it. ... Read the Post
5 Tips for Dealing with Guilt
I want to write about a topic that comes up recurringly in client sessions and conversations with girlfriends. Guilt. At a friend’s birthday party this weekend, I reconnected with an acquaintance I’d met several months ago at a business event. She has since then given birth to a beautiful baby and has quit her job to be a full time momma. She mentioned her guilt about quitting her job and ... Read the Post
Reflect & Release: Things to do in the Winter Season
Like I mentioned in a previous post, nature and a woman’s body are not very different. Both work in cycles, seasons and rhythms. Like the seasons, the female body goes through four main phases in each cycle of 28-30 days: Spring = follicular phase Summer = ovulation phase Fall = luteal phase Winter = menstruation phase Each phase brings with it a unique set of hormonal, physical, ...

6 Gifts to Give (Yourself) During the Holidays
Fun, exciting, warm and festive: the holidays are such a special time of year. But amidst the festivities and excitement, a sense of overwhelm can overcome us as our list of to-dos grows longer. Shopping, travel arrangements, party preparations and other holiday-related tasks take over and threaten to sabotage the magic of the holiday season. But it doesn’t have to turn into a “Stressmas” ... Read the Post
Money, Mindset and a Gift That Keeps on Giving
Do you remember being taught how to manage money as a young girl? Me neither. I often lament that some of life’s most important skills such as eating well, managing money and nurturing relationships should be taught in school! This is how we achieve true health. But it’s never too late to learn. Let me share my roller coaster ride with money: As an MBA graduate, I landed a high-paying ... Read the Post
