Make Your Emotions Allies
If you’ve ever seen a toddler’s tantrum (or even one of a woman, as in Me, who has just been told she was over-reacting; “I’ll show you over-reacting!”) you know the power of emotions. They have the potential to fire us up and inspire us toward creative, loving, kind actions. They can be expansive. Or [...]
Change Your Mind, Change How You Feel About Your Body
Scars track my left leg where doctors cut melanoma from the skin. I’ve gained a little weight since college and, well O.K., even since that football tailgate last month. I’ve added some wrinkles. Some gray hair. And this body can be stiff and sore with arthritis after sitting too long. Perhaps, I’m not the hottie [...]
Beauty is soul deep — Interview with author Rosie Molinary
A wise woman I know also happens to be a fabulous writer with a new book out that should at least stop and make us feel and think and connect more deeply with ourselves. But, if you’re ready, it can also do a few other little things like, ah well, empower you, inspire you, and [...]
One path: A devastating job change opens a portal to bigger possibilities
I had the future all figured out. Then, when the company I had been employed with for over eight years sold to a large corporation, the future changed. With the sale, my colleagues and I lost years of earned benefits and were considered new hires, starting at the bottom. I was pregnant with my second [...]
Pursuing your passion: What fuels your life?
I’m interested in how people work. Curious about what they care about, about what fires them up. And curious too, about why many of us are willing to put those things — our greatest passions — on hold to do instead the things we think we “should do.” We vacuum before we paint, even though [...]
Just say “Yes” and open to the possibility
No thank you. Sorry, I’m just too busy. Nope. Not gonna do it. Not available. That doesn’t work for me. Are you kidding? These are all the ways I’ve learned to say “No.” After years of feeling like I’d taken on too much, I learned, in part thanks to the women’s mags who ran banner [...]
How to Take Inspired Action and Boost Your Happiness
There’s a study that’s out that says we are happier people when we are busier people – even if what we are doing is pointless. But, given the choice, why would we be pointlessly busy instead of inspired and engaged and busy? On my best days, I’m busy taking inspired action, rather than taking on [...]
Move toward your dreams
Every day we have a chance to create our experience, moment by moment. It happens through our thoughts and ideas. But, a good idea is not enough to create a good outcome. You also must take inspired action. You’ve got to make a move, because our thoughts take shape in our reality only when we [...]
Pursue your passion
Ever had one of those moments when you lost track of time and became totally and completely immersed in what you were doing? You were challenged and engaged and excited. You thought of nothing else. You felt your body pulse with energy. And, that energy lingered long after you were done. In that moment, you [...]
Passion propels good feelings, flow. So what are you passionate about?
The direct path to satisfaction, happiness, abundance – all the good stuff – cannot be found, believe it or not, in the ice cream aisle. At least on most days. Most days, the success we aspire to, the wealth of spirit, peace, joy, blah, blah, blah, is found when we are doing what we’re passionate [...]
