This week we’re going to dive into a simple – but not easy – experiment:mWhat if we assumed shit just might work out for us, instead of worrying it won’t? Join us as we explore this way of thinking that’s 100% available to all of us.
Continue readingThis week we dive into one thing that we all need to cultivate to really experience a good life: AWE. We’ll talk about all the ways we can experience awe (because it’s more than just sunsets and mountain splendor), and some practices we can do to cultivate awe in our daily lives.

This week we dive into our Foundational Attachments, exploring our relationships with nature and humans, and why we might see them as separate in the first place. This impacts how we experience the world, as well as how we suffer unnecessarily, AND how we find joy.

This week, we dive into a truth that we often forget: We are the dreams of our ancestors. Join us as we explore the ways we can honor our ancestors in the lives we live today and how we can move forward in healing their wounds AND ours, not just for our own good, but for the good of our communities. Knowing this helps us get through anything, and this is the type of resilience many of us need right now.

This week I reflect on a recent visit to Hanoi, Vietnam, and how a simple experience of crossing the street turned into a very healing and eye-opening lesson in trust and interdependence. We’ll talk about how in the US, when it comes to navigating traffic and driving, we are taught to assume we are invisible. Drive defensively. Cross streets assuming no one sees you. In Hanoi, it was the opposite. If you wanted to do something as basic as cross the street, you have to assume you would be seen, and that people cared and would take care. I was able to literally walk into oncoming traffic amongst strangers – something we can’t do in many industrialized growth societies like the US. We explore the vulnerability and beauty of how humans can move through chaos together when we come from a place of interdependence and interbeing.

This week’s topic is all about judgment and discernment. We can often default to judging situations and people, especially if we’ve been through trauma and we’re on the lookout for threats. Add to this a history of being gaslit, and it gets even harder to trust our inner wisdom. But understanding the difference between judgment and discernment can completely change how we respond to life and to other, making it more compassionate, expansive and creative.. The good news is that cultivating discernment is possible. In this episode, we dive into a practice that helps you do exactly that.
Continue readingThis week’s episode is about the importance of letting in what restores and realigns us so that we can let go of what no longer serves us. We’ll talk about the concept of crowding out and how we can use that as a framework to practice letting in wherever we find ourselves stuck in our old patterns.
Continue readingThis week we talk about the importance of showing up authentically in relationships… even when we are afraid the other person won’t accept us for who we are. I’ll share my own story about how my husband and I could have ended it… and how my choice to speak and act wisely changed the course of our relationship and our parenting forever (and for good)!

This week’s episode is all about Sacred Discipline – not the authoritarian, “I told you so” type of discipline, but a sacred discipline that comes from creating what WE wants. A Sacred Discipline that can set us free and help us live our Soul Purpose into the world (which, BTW, really needs it right now!). We will explore how Sacred Discipline isn’t anti-freedom at all, and jam on some ways to develop our own Sacred Discipline in a daily practice.

This week’s episode is all about forgiveness as a practice, and beginning again (and again). We often think of forgivensss as a singular act, but if you’ve ever tried to truly forgive, you likely know it’s a process. And if we succeed, it’s also something we might have to go through again when old wounds are reopened. We’ll be jamming on WHY we have to revisit forgiveness over and over again, and I’ll give some tools that will help you approach forgiveness as a practice.
