"You're Building Worlds, That Don't Exist..."

Do you ever MAKE UP conversations with other people inside your head? Like you’re REHEARSING what you think is about to happen? I do this ALL. THE. TIME!

Water Doesn’t Ask Permission

Last week I had the incredible opportunity to witness one of the great natural wonders of our world, Niagara Falls. Driving into the park, I saw mist rising from MILES away. The sheer power of this force was incredible to witness first hand.

When was the Last Time You Played?

Last week one of the folks in the Mindset Reset sent me a HILARIOUS video (see below) of her saying her affirmation in Free Spirit mode. What is Free Spirit mode you ask? It means she was a little silly and spontaneous and didn't care about negative judgment from others. Much like the picture above of me playing with nephew 😉

We All Be Different!

We live in a world where there are nearly 8 billion people, almost 200 countries and over 4,000 religions and spiritualities. We all be DIFFERENT!

The Highest Form of Self-Love

We are officially into Week 2 of the Mindset Reset, the August Affirmation Initiative and it's got me thinking a lot about COMMITMENT.

This Week Was ROUGH!

I don’t know about you, but this past week was rough. Coming off the high of an incredible birthday week and vacation, I slid into a deep spiral of overwhelm, fear, sadness, anger and confusion. Old trauma patterns arose. Isolation increased. Communication ceased.

Stand Porter at the Door of Thought.

Last week, I completed a four day trek through the Peruvian Andes, covering 35 miles and ascending up to 15,000 feet.

Where Are You Going?

In 2 days, I’m jetting off for an Andean adventure in Peru. In a few months I'll be lounging in Italy, and maybe working in Hawaii in between. We're likely heading south for the winter and in the past 3 months, traveled through 12 different states.

Writing Isn't Easy

Writing ANY book is hard. Writing MY book is hard. It’s hard because I don’t want to hurt people. I don’t want to trigger people. I don’t want my story, my truth, my reality to negatively impact others. But it will. It’s going to. It HAS to.

For The Love of Community

After being on the road the last 2 months, I've come to miss a lot of things from home. While #vanlife is beautiful and exciting, it can be challenging and down right hard sometimes!

Intuition

We all know those moments when we DON’T listen to our intuition. We just ignore it. We all hear the little whisper of a voice, a thought, a gut feeling, a specific twinge that moves our body naturally one direction or another. And then, BOOM, it changes.

Changes on the Horizon

Over the past year I’ve been seeing, on average, 28 therapy clients per week. Through a pandemic, telehealth, protests, 2 rounds of fires, moving and caretaking for my grandmother, and the result, much like everyone else, was BURN OUT.

Thanks, Grandma, I love you

In January last year I felt the itch to move out of my apartment.

I wanted something new, a change, and was looking for different places to live in midtown. The same day I was offered a lease on a new place, my grandmother called and asked me to stay with her for a couple days while she got out the hospital after hip surgery. She was 95 at the time and had lived alone for over 32 years.

Body Image Blues Part 2

As a way to help heal my younger-self who dealt with a lot of body image blues, I decided to write a letter from the perspective of my teenage self. I have named her, and she wrote a letter to me.
