Engagement–do you have it or are you looking?

Whether you are talking about social media, speaking gigs, or wanting love in your life [in the way of romance or friendships], it all comes down to the issue of connection and that means engagement. If you don’t get it, you are sitting there all by yourself. We long for connection to others, for others to hear

Finding your courage

In the Wizard of Oz, the Cowardly Lion is eager to go on the journey with Dorothy so the magical Wizard can install courage in him. The story is a classic and most of us have watched it repeatedly throughout our childhood. However, it appears to me that the fairytale message is not understood by all of us.

Did you get hurt in the heart?

I recently posted a rather innocent question on Facebook and have been taken aback a the great responses it elicited. It is good to know how much people care and to also know that people are reading. However, that same post also got people guessing, with great confidence, about who my person was that I

Your Authentic Self–Now

We have all had the experience of feeling like we just met with a person who we thought we knew, but somehow the encounter left us feeling like we just met with a stranger. Its an awful experience. We feel confused, sad, and even angry. The person who was there was not being their authentic

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

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
