The essential routine of self-care and its importance has been echoing loudly for weeks. It’s been the topic of masterminds I’ve joined, brought up in conversations with clients and friends, and seems to be the headline of many of my inbox reads. As a result, self-care has become the theme of my social media…
Most of my readers know my story. What I do, and why I do it, and the vibrant and interesting life that pursuing my passion has gifted me. With this life, I create authentic experiences that wake people up. I always have. (Even as a 26-year-old high school teacher in the UK – taking…
It’s good to have something to look forward to. I had forgotten what that felt like. Having a specific date where you know something good is going to happen to change your scenery. Even though we are still “in it”, some of us are seeing new paths emerge from the tangled confusion. We…
Yesterday, I was coerced into teaching piano lessons to a 3-year-old. It began with an innocent enough beach walk at sunset when the curly-headed toddler began to draw pictures of pianos in the sand with a stick. Her drawings were terrible. But we (her mother and I), tried to help her hold her…

I spent this past weekend at a detox Retreat just a few miles up the road from me. Yes, I left one gorgeous beach to spend time at another gorgeous beach, but hey. We all need a change of scenery, even if it’s from one place of beauty to another. The weekend was perfect,…
This past weekend was a doozy. Did you feel it? A New Moon, the Summer Solstice, and a Solar Eclipse packaged tightly into side-by-side days. If you are one to celebrate Father’s Day (it was Sunday) or International Yoga Day (also Sunday), then you might have been especially busy recognizing and celebrating all…
I want to share with you something funny that made me laugh out loud. Truly. And then it also made me think. (Kind of a “hahaha—Hey, wait.” moment). In the last couple of months, I hit pause on my overseas Retreats and pivoted to increase teaching my personal growth programs online. This pivot…
Today, I’m lying on my couch, writing this, looking out my window up at the sky on a perfectly sunny day. I’ve postponed my personal travel and retreats, and am recalibrating. What happens next? What can I offer now? I have 9 years of experience operating a global business and managing remote teams. I’ve…
