I recently read a brief reference to Living Root Bridges made out of tree roots, and knew I had to find out more. In the region of Meghalaya in India, the wettest place on Earth, the people of the Khasi…

When I first started my blog and email list in 2017, I wrote about anything and everything related to creativity and the healing journey. While it was often unfocused, I was reclaiming my voice. I was healing the instrument…

I recently re-watched the 1941 Disney movie, Dumbo, with my daughter. Born with giant, wing-like ears, Dumbo is mocked and scorned for being different. Yet his little mouse friend discovers that Dumbo’s unique ears can be his greatest gift, allowing…

Hello beautiful souls,

There was a moment in 2016 when I sat frozen in my kitchen—gripping the wall, my breath shallow, my heart racing.

An opportunity had just opened to share my voice in a much bigger way.

Something in…

Last spring, I coached a person with a big heart and message as they prepared to give a TEDx talk. Dr. Chrissy Chard's message impacted me deeply as a parent, and they similarly felt that my coaching transformed their speech…

Here’s what’s giving me a deep-seated sense of hope right now:

I know from experience that every healing journey has moments of hitting rock bottom.

Last week, I was shocked and disappointed by the US election results. Standing in front…

Last week I had an experience that reminded me we can pray for divine guidance. We can ask for everyday miracles and see what magic unfolds.

I’ve just dropped my kids off at school and I pull into my neighborhood…

Dearest souls,

The trickle of cascading water beckons me down the steep dirt path in this urban swath of wilderness.

Arriving at the water’s edge, I find a curious sight: plants growing out of a cinderblock lodged in the middle…

In the days when I knew I wanted to make a shift in my business, but was struggling to attract my ideal clients and customers,

A hidden part inside kept whispering that I was the problem.

While my conscious…

Your voice is worthy.

I say this with certainty.

Because you are here, with your big, messy human heart.

You are enough, and your stories matter.

When you share about what you have overcome, or helped others overcome, you invite…

If all of your biggest dreams were to come true today, would your body and energy system be open, joyous, and ready? Or would you feel overwhelmed?

Often there is a gap between what we WANT and what…

Hey loves,

You’re invited to the party! Story Marketing from the Heart is a FREE workshop this coming Friday, September 6th at noon MDT/ 2 pm Eastern/ 11 am Pacific, with a recording available if you can’t attend live.

I’m…

I used to worry what other people thought. A lot. I would ruminate on thoughts like, 

How will people react if I say what my heart yearns to say? 

Will people ignore me? 

Will they criticize me? 

Will they reject…

Have you ever felt inner or outer pressure to play big? 

I used to think I had to take every single big leap that crossed my path. When I was 18, I decided I wanted to be the kind of…

Hey loves,

When we know how to create a robust sense of inner safety, we can smoothly make big changes with ease and expansiveness.

I recently experienced this with my family. My two kids, ages 10 and 14, have…

In our busy lives, it's a radical act of self-love to invest time and energy into your own fulfillment, joy, and divine connection.

I want to invite you to two amazing opportunities to show yourself love this week, one in-person…

Hey loves,

How do you allow your voice to be a conduit for something greater to come through?

This theme has been on my mind this week because I am co-hosting a new in-person offering on May 23^rd called…

People-pleasing is tricky territory, especially when we want to spread hope and healing in the world. We might slide down the slippery slope of betraying ourselves in order to be a likeable, “good” person.

What is the difference between truly…

If you are going to use your voice….

Why not use it for good?

Over my 17 years as a vocal coach, nearly all of my clients have wanted to befriend their voices to use them for something positive in…

If you want to speak or sing authentically, you will embody the OPPOSITE of hiding. Sharing your voice requires showing up to be seen and heard, whether you are on a stage or engaging in conversation.

Yet because we…
