The Speed of Trust

The issue of trust haunts every human on the planet. It is a part of our being that leads naturally into a zone of wondering if we are actually okay. Did I do it right? Do they like me? We all suffer. The topic of trust is far more emotional, more about the heart and

Father’s Day is soon

Every year I am reminded about two special days that cause me angst and melancholy. On Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, I feel joy that I was born to two such incredible human beings and then also deep sadness that they have both passed away. Regardless of my faith-filled heart and mind, I become a

I am in love with well-being!

There are so many ways for us to get motivated, find inspiration, and feel the drive to move beyond where we are currently. I find my sources are both earthly and heavenly. For my earthly well-being, I want my body to be as strong and healthy as possible. For so many years, my priorities were elsewhere

The Path to Relief From Pain

As I am asked about my work and what I do as a psychologist, an author, a consultant, and a speaker, many things come to mind.  However, they seem to all land on one point– relieving pain. We all have some form of pain. Perhaps you are feeling happy today. Great. But you can probably

Caution as you move forward

We see the signs but I wonder, as I read them, about the deeper meaning we have waiting for us with each one of them. On a winding and hilly road, this comes before my eyes and I laugh a bit as I think that even in my automobile, I am going to exercise caution.

Deciding to let it out

What?! Let what out? Vulnerability. I’m not so well acquainted with it, but I am learning from so many sources, especially those close to me, that this is a lovely experience.  I’m not so sure. I’ve got mixed feelings. Really, extending beyond my zone of comfort and allowing people to know my frailties? However, there

Epiphany time

My life is on a course of having prayers answered. I have prayed for humility, patience, and grace. I had people and events placed onto my path that have caused me to know more about these topics than what I could have ever imagined. The journey is not easy. However, it is one that I

Love Affairs

We shouldn’t deny it, everybody wants to fall in love in their life. Some people want to fall in love over and again and feel the passion of life in a multitude of ways and have the love affair be as much with life itself as it is with a life partner. All understandable. The thing about

When you feel down and blue

Earlier today I posted something on my personal Facebook (FB) page about feeling like a rain storm on the inside, given the massive shifts I have been making in my business. It’s been exciting but also tough–lots of newness to every bit of it and just as many glitches. I was on FB and making note
