Ending the Epidemic I blame the Puritans for why most of us struggle with life-long guilt for feeling good–the kind of guilt that prevents you from investing time, energy, and money into yourself. I’d dare to say that it’s an epidemic, especially among womxn. Pleasures and self-indulgences come in many varieties: spiritual, sensual, sexual, emotional,Continue reading “Conditioning Your Brain for Pleasure”

The Body and Workaholic Women
Quiet Quitting There’s been a lot of chatter recently about “quiet quitting”–the act of putting in minimal effort and enthusiasm in one’s job.

Bravery to be Seen
I coach womxn on becoming their true Self–making the unconscious conscious and accessing their Higher Self outside of the ego-persona.

Layers of Acceptance
The truth will set you free. I involuntarily roll my eyes at cliché adages. We’ve all been subjected to hearing them.

Finding Pleasure in a World of Plight
Just as the pandemic was beginning to sink into a lull over here in the U.S., the weight of the world somehow got heavier. I don’t need to recount the tragedies we’re all reading about in the news each day—I’m here to remind you that our expansion of self and soul are still important. OurContinue reading “Finding Pleasure in a World of Plight”
The Nervous System Knows
As a highly sensitive woman, I have learned to develop an appreciation and understanding of my nervous system. I thought I had already hit the gold mine of wisdom a number of years ago, but just when I thought I knew everything there is to know about my body’s command center, the universe handed meContinue reading “The Nervous System Knows”
