Are Desires Keeping You Stuck?

Are Desires Keeping You Stuck?

Feeling stuck is a hard place to be. For most, feeling stuck often comes along with ambivalence which means there’s a part of you that wants to change and a part that doesn’t for some reason. A part of you wants to make changes to feel better but is fearful of doing...

Why I No Longer Do Individual Therapy

I’ve worked with a lot of human beings in a lot of different ways over the past two decades. From kiddos to teenagers. From young adults to adults nearing the end of life. In an office, out in the middle of the wilderness. Sometimes one-on-one, other times in groups....

Discern What Is Real To Get Unstuck

Sitting down to write a blog post this week has been challenging and I kept getting stuck. I’ve started, stopped, edited and finally thrown out what I was working on because it wasn’t resonating with me. I’d just as soon get up and walk away. But I have made a...

Practice Of Abundance

If you’ve been reading my blog for awhile, you know I write about abundance often. It is a wonderful practice to shift a negative, lack-based mindset to one that is more positive and connected…if it’s done correctly. The mind is tricky. Our limited patterns of...

Turn ‘I Can’t’ Into ‘I Can’

The only person that stops you from doing things is yourself.  I learned this first hand in 2014 when I became curious hearing myself say, “I can’t.” I was able to turn ‘I can’t’ into ‘I can.’ Letting go of a story and taking action were all I needed to let things...

Aware Of The Subtle Choices

There are so many choices in life. Obvious choices like what to buy at the grocery store, what to eat for a meal, what to wear, what to do each day. Then there are also the choices we make without knowing we are even making a choice. These are more subtle. Thoughts...
