Did You Hear? I’m Opening A SPA!
YES! I’m opening a SPA … but before we get there … let me share my passion and my vision! “Do you really think you can make a significant difference in the amount of people struggling with trauma? I mean trauma is everywhere! It’s overwhelming, and I just don’t want you to be disappointed.” I […]
You Are Not Unfixable! No One Is!
“I truly believed I was unfixable. I believed my flaws were hardwired in a way that could never be reversed.” This is the place where I normally say: “My client said” or “My client moaned as they plopped into a chair in my office.” This week it’s different. This week I’ve been challenged by a […]
LAUNCHING INTO THE EXTRAORDINARILY ABUNDANT LIFE YOU HAVE DRAFTED!
“WHEW! I got all that work done, but I didn’t miss what you said at the end of our last session,” my client came back for an unexpected session. “I know you said that drafting the greatest plan in the world with remarkable strategies…without massive, immediate action was nothing more than a waste of time! That […]
The Purposeful DRAFTing of An Extraordinary Year
“You can just call me ‘doubting Thomas’ if you want to. For three years, I’ve heard you talk about drifting and thought it was a little bit clever. But I still allowed myself to drift through them.” I commented, “Realizing that, and showing up here doesn’t not sound like a ‘doubting Thomas’ to me.” She […]
DRAFTing vs. DRIFTING to Who Knows Where
“It’s a piece of wood that’s been drifting out on the ocean. Came from nowhere and is going nowhere, and it finally came to shore to be burnt up as firewood. So, we call it driftwood.” That was the answer my dad gave me as a little girl. We were walking on the beach, and […]
Harnessing the Power of Love
“Love maintains the power to do the right thing…even if it doesn’t feel like it…” Stephen and Alex Kendrick I read this in my inspired reading one morning recently. Perfect timing. Little did I know I would need it later that day. “I can’t help my response when I think she’s accusing me,” the husband […]
Desperate To Know Our Stories Matter
“We are all desperate to know that our stories make a difference!” It was one of the most powerful statements I heard this weekend. It was my privilege to be in Washington, DC for the annual gala event for the Museum Of The Bible. I was blown away by the museum, just 3 1/2 blocks […]
Gratitude: What A Way to Live!
“I’ve read a lot of your stuff, and I know that you’re going to talk to me about gratitude. It’s a theme for you. And I appreciate that. But what is gratitude going to do for me in this lonely holiday season?” My new client asked with a shaky sound of desperation in her voice. […]
Healing Partnership After the Wrecking Ball
“I have always loved him. Even in the midst of mood swings that wrecked me. But now I’m actually ‘falling in love’ with him all over again! I didn’t expect that, but I’m not complaining!” The couple I’ve been working with, and writing about, came in for one last session on healing the relationship and […]
More Healing for Relationships Where One or Both Struggle with Mood Swings
“So, I have to admit that the last session was full of sunshine and roses! But I bet people show up with weapons for this one,” the husband from last week’s session proclaimed as he walked in the door. After laughing, I responded, “Most everyone comes in expecting it with this assignment. But to be […]
