I wish one of my relationship expert friends would write a specific article on “How To Leave While You’re In Love”. This has been one of the hardest things to do because, right or wrong, I still love him so much. I just had to take a stand for real partnership that I’m committed to [...]

The ego is a funny thing. For many it is what defines them (USED BY IT), and they daren’t venture beyond its confines. For others, it is like a cage they are trapped in. For still others, it is all that is. And for yet others, it feels like the controller of who they are [...]

He suggested I write about my experience as it may serve others.

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me? How many times as a kid did you hear (or use) that saying “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” ? In my pre-teen years, growing up in England, that was said so many times, [...]

Roll up your sleeves folks, let’s get to work… First, some questions to prime the pump: How do you feel when that car cuts you off on the freeway? Or does your stomach sink when you see that letter in your mailbox from the debt collector/your ex/the IRS/the credit card company/etc.? Or has your boss [...]

had originally intended to write about a different lesson at this point in the journey. Even though I had written quite a lot, it wasn’t coming together and feeling ready to share. I sat with that for a few days, and during a time of contemplation and reflection, the word freedom loomed large in my awareness (!), [...]
