§ We came to this world to LIVE OUT LOUD.
Mindfulness Heaven
When was the last time you gave yourself a week, a day, or even a couple of hours to simply be? I just spent a glorious week at a Family Mindfulness Retreat with two of my daughters at Plum Village, the monastery founded by Vietnamese Buddhist Zen monk Thich Nat Hahn in the Bordeaux region of France.
Grace and Ease

My family and I just spent a week with my parents during which I found myself triggered like I haven’t been in years. I won’t divulge the details to respect other people’s privacy but I will share that I often found myself feeling guilty, ashamed, angry, frustrated and very, very sad.
Grieve to Set Yourself Free

Do You Love Being a Woman?
Happy International Woman’s Day!!! It’s happening this week on Thursday, March 8th and I declare that it should be International Woman’s Week! This is a point that hits home particularly hard for me.
Put Yourself First
Do you have a hard time putting yourself first?I struggled for many years to not only be the “perfect” mom, partner to my husband, friend, daughter, community member but to also have a successful business, a great social life and, of course, look great while doing it all.
