A cure for entrepreneurial doubt and magical thinking
Being an entrepreneur brings up all of our self worth, confidence and commitment issues... over and over again. There’s no way to avoid it - running our own business is one of the most powerful medicine paths we can choose. It’s important to remember this at all...
Taking responsibility vs. blaming ourself
Taking responsibility for something is not the same thing as blaming ourself for it. Taking responsibility says, “I see my part in this, and I know how to create a more desirable result next time.” This is empowerment. Self blame says, “I screwed up and I’m going to...
Is talking about karma “victim blaming?”
I’ve been seeing a disturbing trend of posts and articles asking people to stop using the word karma to explain reality, because it’s hurtful to those who’ve had a difficult experience and feel blamed or shamed for it. I truly honor all of us who have had to go...
The Shadow Feminine In Entrepreneurship and the Dangers of the White Knight Fantasy
“I just wish I could find a business partner to handle the whole money side of things so I can focus on my passion, helping people.” “I am going to hire someone to do my sales and marketing because my personality type isn’t good at that stuff.” “I’ve got too much...
Fame, Social Media and Karma
The other night I was contemplating whether or not photos, writing, and audio/video recordings of us carry any of our consciousness with them (also, yes, I recently watched Black Mirror, so this topic was fresh in my mind!) While these creations do not have self...
Wasting Good Karma: The Seductive Myth Of Getting Something For Nothing (e.g. Millennial Wantrepreneurs on Instagram, MLM’s, And Coaching Masterminds)
The other say I saw a post that was promoting a paid mastermind for women to “effortlessly make money as an entrepreneur” (or more likely, a mastermind leader for *other* female entrepreneurs...) I paused for a moment. Wouldn’t it be amazing if I could do whatever I...
The True Meaning Of “Love And Light” – Reclaiming The Concept From Spiritual Bypassers
I cringe whenever I hear someone say “it’s all love and light” in response to, well, pretty much anything. This is especially true if it’s in response to someone’s suffering. This concept, like many others, has been twisted and adulterated by people who haven’t taken...
The Hidden Relationship Between Addiction And Alignment
Most humans are addicted to something... alcohol, tobacco, caffeine, drugs, food, sex, drama, Facebook, worrying. There is no shame in having an addiction because almost everyone has at least one. For the sake of this post, I’m defining addiction as anything we...
The Problem With Focusing On The Problem
I’m inspired to speak to a pattern I’ve witnessed in myself and others, because I’ve had some recent revelations that could be useful for those who are struggling with something big. Here’s what I’ve observed. When there’s an apparent problem in our lives, especially...
It’s Always Darkest Before Dawn
Tomorrow, the Moon will join the Sun, Mercury and Venus in Pisces, where she will become new again, beginning another cycle of waxing light. When the Moon is waning, especially in the second week, she rises in the middle of the night, so most of us are asleep during...
How I Was Initiated By Two Works Of Visionary Art (And Helped Create A Piece That’s Now In The Smithsonian!)
Years ago, I went to Symbiosis, a music and art festival at Pyramid Lake. I was newly single, had recently moved to the Bay Area, and was feeling lost around how to live my true purpose. I had a big prayer to get more clarity and find my next level of joy. By the...
How To Grieve
I’ve been feeling the collective grief so strongly lately, and I feel called to share some valuable lessons I’ve learned for myself about grieving, in case they are supportive for you too: 1 - Do not try to resist the grief. I am either feeling it fully, or it is...
The Relationship Between Creative Talent And Pleasure
The day I learned how to truly sing was the day I discovered that I actually love experiencing my own voice. Up until that point I had been trying to sing to look good, impress others, and achieve a level of expertise. I never truly enjoyed the process and no one...
How I Called In True Love – But It Wasn’t What I Expected

All We Can Do Is Take The Next Aligned Step On Our Path Of Mystery
When we can’t see the big picture (which is all the time, truthfully), all we can do is take the next aligned step on our path of mystery. One very big or infinitesimally small step in the direction of our true Yes in the moment will always take us where we need to...
The Artful Use Of Anger – Channeling Passion Into Purpose vs Getting Revenge

How Redefining Sales Finally Turned Me Into A Real Entrepreneur
