It’s time to soften. From what I see in the media, we’re about to lose the health of our entire planet. It’s time for the love of power and the warrior mindset in the power-seeking greed-saturated armed forces, police forces and government, to end. I’m not sure where the rough, cruel, brutal and barbaric mentality […]

What Would You Have to Believe….
I heard this question from someone and thought it was brilliant: “What would you have to believe about yourself in order to feel successful?” For me, it first brought up the question of what success meant to me. I had to define it in my own terms in order to have a relevant answer. And […]
Jondi Whitis of EFT Radio Interviews Auth...
I was interviewed by EFT Tap Fest’s Jondi Whitis last week, as to “Why You MUST Show Up.” We had a blast, talking about how critical it is right now in our human journey to speak our truths, to show up and say it like it is. With this query, Jondi made me think of […]
How I Ditched My Suicidal Thoughts, Shame...
For 35 years, I spent untold time every day quietly contemplating ways to do myself in. Even if the thoughts were only in the back of my mind. Thankfully, I never had even a fraction of the courage/stupidity to do it. I wasn’t ill and dying, or it might have made a little sense. I […]
What Story Do You Repeat About Yourself D...
If I asked you to tell me a story, what would you say? Most people I ask say, “I’m not a storyteller!” But you know what? You are. You’re the narrator of your very own, inner drama. The Show Special of a Lifetime. The Act of all Ages. And I bet that you have at […]
Why Doing What You Hate is a Life-Killer
If you have a job or are doing something right now where you spend most of your time hating what you do, this is for you. Be careful what you choose to do. Why? Because as you spend your life minutes and precious life energy on doing whatever it is, you are spending it hating! […]
A Shocking Reading
Yesterday, I was given an astrology reading by a well-meaning, very dear-to-me, much-loving old friend. I’m think astrology is a good thing – even studied it for a bit – but I don’t normally go out of my way to get readings. But since it was a gift, and offered with such good intention, I […]
Half the Sky
I watched a documentary last night called Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide. Ever hear of it? It’s also the name of a book written by Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn, a NY Times reporter and his wife, also a writer for the Times. In each of the two 2-hour segments, […]
One More Week! Woohoo!
Malinda Zarate of EmboldenedHeart.com has been kind enough to leave my interview with her up for another week because of the hurricane. Woohoo! Thanks! If you have struggled with overwhelming feelings of anger, sadness, fear, etc. you’ll want to hear this. And nope, I did NOT use EFT to show Malinda how to turn her […]
Raise Your Vibes Despite Election Chaos a...
I’m supposing that 99.9% of those who send out newsletters to their self-growth lists wouldn’t mention the upcoming US elections. Well. I will, and I am. Here’s why: every last thing we do and think effects our vibratory rate. The higher frequency we vibrate at, the higher the energetic message we send out. So it’s […]
Come See Me on Spiritus, the Spiritual Ma...
AND…as if good things don’t happen alone…how cool is this? I was featured today on Spiritus, the spiritual marketing directory – a nice shorty article on my thoughts about spirituality integrated with biz. GET TO IT HERE. Are you a member of Spiritus? If you like the idea of embedding your ideas and values in […]
Interviewed Today by Malinda Zarate at Em...
I was so pleased to have been interviewed today by Malinda Zarate of EmboldenedHeart.com. She invites guests every month who she feels contributes to the invisible, energetic growth of our planet – what an honor to have been invited! We had great fun, and I got to talk about how I finally conquered my 35-year-long […]
How Do You Feel When It’s Time to Ask for
When it’s time to ask your potential client or your customer for the money, what happens to you? How do you feel? • Squeamish? • Guilty? • Ashamed? • Like your services ‘should’ be free? • Does a little voice in your head insist that you’re a fraud? (Many energy pratitioners tell me this – […]
I Need Your Input!
Times are changing. Your needs are changing. And I want to keep up to date. So, if you would write me a quick comment on this page with very brief phrases about what you’d like help with from me, I’d so appreciate it. I’ve done surveys, but they seem so cold and distance-making. I want […]
Art Success Update!
As you may know, I’ve been revving up my painting and carving for a few months now, as I simultaneously wind down to working with all but the bare-bones minimum coaching – occasional teleclasses, a couple of groups, and some Elite Level clients, and that’s it. It was darn scary at first, because I honestly […]
Artists! Do You Know How to Tap Your Way ...
As you might know, I am re-journeying into my art world after a 10-year hiatus. It’s taken some pretty massive tapping, because I’m bumping into all the old beliefs and ideas that limited me before. The HUGE difference being that now I know what to do when I’m assailed by doubt and fear, and I […]
How to Write A Great Newsletter that Peop...
Some of you have asked me why I don’t write every week. Because, you know, the marketing geniuses say, “you should keep yourself in front of your market, write every week….” Well, I’m very calmly and happily done with “I should.” When I have something to say, I’ll say it! If a rule works for […]
The Wave™ 2012 is Happening – Woohoo! Rig
We’ve all heard tons and tons of talk about about how 2012 is supposedly a defining year for consciousness. I have to admit that, at first, when I heard all the talk and the big hooha about 12/21/12, I was a bit cynical about it. It was, “OK, so it’s a big date…” and there […]

Am I Jumping the EFT Ship?
Yesterday I posted an article to my list about my radio show with Lisa Nichols; joining with me to save the bees, and my teleclass last week. There were a bunch of unsubscribes – a few that really surprised me, that were from people who’d been on my list a long time. When I wrote […]
Your Feedback Means So Much to Me!
Thanks so much, those of you who took the time to send in the postcard feedback I sent you about the FREE No Calling Fears Teleclass – I so appreciate it. It was a new idea for me, to send a card like that. I liked the idea of using hand-addressed postcards because it seemed […]
Want Some Unique Island Themed (and Other...
I have over 300 images on my prints and cards site, many of them from the 100 Days 100 Paintings project I did last year to raise awareness about the pollution we cause in the oceans when we buy water in plastic water bottles. There are also many island-themed and other images for Holiday cards […]
Are You Immersed in the Strategy of Trage...
I listened to a pretty compelling presentation given by a guy on consciousness last week. One of the things he mentioned that I really appreciated was the idea that most people operate from a Strategy of Tragedy. Evidence of that is everywhere – especially in the self-help world. Our minds are all ready to look […]
Sir Ken Robinson: How School Squashes Cre...
Recently I watched a couple of TED (TED.com) videos with Sir Ken Robinson. He talks about how our educational system squashes out kids’ passion and creativity (if you’re creative at all, you know what he’s taling about!). He says in time, as we go through our educational system, our bodies become “just a means of […]
5 Steps to Stop Swilling In Your Old Stor...
Recently in my coaching sessions I’ve become more and more adament about getting people to discard their old, unsupportive, destructive Stories. Yes! I have an agenda! I know, I know, coaches are supposed to walk beside you and hand-hold you as you walk your journey. Point out and help you get around blocks, blind spots […]
Happy My-Birthday!
I awoke this morning to my neighbor knocking on my door, bringing me home-made chocolate chip cookies and birthday cards from herself and my landlady – how much better than that can you get? Chocolate chip cookies for brekkie! Yehoo! And then…imagine my jaw dropping down to basement level as I see my inbox with […]
Great Stuff Happens When You Align with Y...
100 Days 100 Paintings In the beginning of July (2010) I embarked upon a project that has literally changed my habits, relationships, use of time, and confidence in myself as a painter. DECISION Right now, one of the worst tragedies resulting from our habit of manufacturing throwaway products is the mess on the beaches and […]
How Do You Get So Much Done?
Do you…have a project that has been on hold since the dinosaur ages (and wonder if you’ll EVER get around to actually doing it)? Do you…get distracted easily and lose the plot…and then kick yourself for not getting what you were doing done? Or do you often stall, or focus on something other than what […]
Artizen Magazine: Carol Gold and Angela T...
A few weeks ago, Cindy Marks, who owns and runs Artizen Magazine (a FREEbie online magazine about artistry across the board: cooking, art, software, you name it, as long as it is done artfully) contacted me. She asked if I would help her research and write an article about outdoor sculpture. Of course I said […]

Put your feet flat on the floor (better yet, the earth) 5. Sit up straight without being rigid 6. Gaze gently […]
