One of my favorite lessons this year is being taught by my scale. I never owned a scale until my best friend bought me a makeup mirror for Christmas years ago (which is like gifting me with earrings – I’ll simply never use it), so I exchanged it for a scale instead. It used...

Earlier this week I finally got around to reading a couple articles in the latest issue of “Choice” magazine (professional coaching trade journal). This issue was dedicated to handling difficult clients, and the article I read was about different ways to handle the ending of a coaching relationship. Author Melanie DewBerry-Jones’ opening sentence of...

If you’re familiar with Byron Katie’s Work, you may have wondered how (or whether) the Inquiry process works with the Law of Attraction. I myself use Katie’s process personally and with clients as a tool for releasing thoughts that keep us stuck in a vibrational pattern that doesn’t serve. (If you’re not familiar with...

My sweetie thinks I tend to make him look bad when I write about him, so he deserves a mention for the mini-miracle he pulled off Friday night. He was two and a half hours late for our dinner/movie date because he decided to get 18 holes of golf in after work. So he...

So my dad stopped by this afternoon after returning from his trip to Oregon, and mentioned that although he gained a few pounds while away, they were quickly dropping as he returned to his regular diet.

I had a coach who used to call them “wild hair” intentions – those crazy, whimsical thoughts that you don’t really give much thought to because they’re so outlandish. Having a wild hair intention is a fun way to get outside the box of your gremlin mind – the part of your brain that...

Did you ever think of Tigger as a deliberate creator’s role model? It wasn’t until last weekend that I realized Tigger epitomizes one of the manifestation success secrets: strong bounce-ability! I tagged along with my boyfriend to Reno for the National Bowling Championship, where I watched several hundred competitors give it their best shot....

A fellow coach asked me today how many hours I spend a week working. Is this a trick question?! Then I thought, well, maybe for some coaches it DOES feel like work. But my answer was that I haven’t worked a single hour since I quit my corporate job. “Very funny,” he said, and...

I’m a big believer that life is more enjoyable when we live without “shoulds” and “have tos.” But on a recent podcast interview I was asked by someone who shares that same philosophy how to handle it when you really really have to do something you’d rather not. (She felt stuck finishing her school...

Joe Pelton is somethin’ else! I just stayed up too late watching this 29 year old kid win the Legends of Poker WPT Championship. (Yeah, it was a rerun from last August, but it was new to me.) Not only was he the youngest and least experienced, but also the only amateur at the...

Today, April 10th, is officially “Prevent Cruelty to Animals” Day (commemorating the founding of the ASPCA in 1866). Prevent cruelty to animals day. Wow. What are we vibrating when we read that? It has to be cruelty to animals, isn’t it? It’s just like I can’t say “no purple triangles” without you flashing on...
