Bloom Before You Go to Seed
03 May 2013Disclaimer: The following content is not a judgment. It’s a musing…a simple observation of how life reveals itself in recurring themes, curtains of consciousness that run parallel and present occasional opportunities to transfer learning from one “universe” to another. I hope you enjoy the read. There’s a restaurant I go to on occasion. I’ve noticed […]

Butt in Saddle, Peace in Heart
12 Apr 2013Motivational quotes…pretty pictures…we love them, don’t we? Sometimes they go deep, layers and layers deep. This Hafiz quote struck me with its depth and profundity. AND, it’s National Poetry Month, so why not celebrate one of the World’s most beloved and widely read poets? Hafiz, or Hafez, was a 14th century Persian poet who has […]

Is Darth Vader My Totem Animal? (and Other Questions from the Galaxy)
12 Mar 2013(This post was originally published last August. Today, in the studio, I was working on another piece…same topic…Vader. I had a repeat of this incident. I wasn’t resistant to doing this piece, not at all. However, I had the same visceral reaction. I guess sometimes the Universe really wants your attention. Still…I. Have. No. Idea. […]

Dreaming in Colour
14 Feb 2013My best dreams are in colour. They last all night and segue from one luscious hue to the next…blending…running…shining through my mind. Texture is sometimes involved, but not always. Last night, my sweet art teacher showed her face over and over in my slumber. I’m not stalking her, not really. Her work is just […]

In A Nutshell
26 Dec 2012Do you make New Year’s resolutions? The Opinion Corporation of Princeton says 62% of people make New Year’s resolutions and only 8% achieve them. Other statistics show people in their 20’s knock down their New Year’s resolutions more frequently…people over 50 complete them at less than half the rate as their younger competitors…oops….I mean counterparts.

My Johnny Depp Sweater
20 Dec 2012I have a special sweater. It’s bulky, and fuzzy and keeps me warm on those really cold winter days. I marinate in this sweater. You might have something similar in your closet. Back in the winter of 2005 I was starting my fledgling coaching practice. In anticipation of my great success, I took special, painstaking […]

The Art of Gratitude
02 Nov 2012Well, then. It’s November – my self designated “Month of Gratitude.” Most of us wait until that Thursday late in November to give thanks for our blessings and life’s sweet gifts. Last year, I began a personal tradition of finding one thing to be grateful for each day and posting it on my Facebook page. […]

While I Was Busy Being Someone Else
27 Sep 2012Strange thing happened the other day… I was called to recount my past life in detail. My corporate life. When this happened, I began to behave like the person I was back then. I got edgy, sharply strategic, unsettled. I am not a corporate type. It’s not that I’m not smart enough, aware enough, creative […]

Life Imitates Art
19 Sep 2012Welcome to my blog – Life Imitates Art. Oscar Wilde wrote in his essay The Decay of Lying: “Life imitates Art far more than Art imitates Life.” It’s an interesting perspective and a stimulating argument. I find parallels in life, work, art and human nature. It has always interested me. I often find it hilarious, […]
