I love spending time with my artist siblings for a great many reasons, one of which is the conversations about color. My brother-in-law talking about the colors in the fused glass portraits he’s doing, how to get flesh tones and shading right through double-digit firings, my sister talking about the colors she uses on her…
Just because you’re good at something doesn’t necessarily mean that’s a message for you to take that on as a career or a calling. People get confused because they are good at this thing or that and therefore pursue it but find it unfulfilling or even soul killing. What’s up with that? Or they are…
If grief teaches us nothing else, it teaches us that words make things real. That’s why we don’t want to say that someone has died, that a relationship is over, that we’ve lost our favorite friend or pet or childhood toy. Because if we say it, then it’s true and life will start moving onwards…

What if there is no plan? So many clients come to me wanting to know what the meaning of something is. Or looking for the lesson in an event or series of events that have occurred. They are looking for the purpose, the plans they made prior to coming here, the narrative in their story…
It’s time to feel and do. It’s time to move and make, do and shake. Stop thinking. Stop thinking about the past and what it means that you did this or that or didn’t do this or that. Stop thinking about what might be. Stop worrying about what decision you may or may not make…
