This is a week of Thanksgiving and gathering in the United States. And I know that not every person is thrilled or even comfortable with the holidays. Maybe your family is divided on politics. Maybe the holidays bring your grief to the surface. Maybe there is a deep...

“Go to bed, my Love,” I heard as I awoke to Brian gently nudging me awake, taking the pen out of my hand and helping me up. I fell asleep making edits to my book. I get the kiddos in bed and then I’m back writing. I have no editor, no agent, no...

Wide Open Let your heart break. Let it break wide open. You have lost all interest in trying to keep all the pieces together anymore. Your soul wants out. Your soul wants freedom. You have been longing to stop pushing down the lump in your throat. Let your truth be...

This past year, I did something I hadn’t done before: I scheduled out my self-care for the whole year. I sat back and saw how I would spend money on my children. I would put their regular activities on the schedule. New soccer team with new uniforms and more...

We were in the middle of Ikea (an hour and a half away from home) when we heard our son broke his thumb. It was Friday and traffic was heavy. We were finally trying to make time for a project in our kitchen to create work space for our children. This project is...

There is a holy wildness growing louder within each of us. I hear it in my clients. I hear it pushing against my own ribs. The beginning of September can still be hot here in the D.C. area and, at this point, many of us are tired of it and ready for the cooler...
