This song. Stopped me in my tracks today. Do you ever feel like a song was written for this very moment in your life? “I’m back in my body. I’m fighting. I’ve found myself when I was going everywhere.” New chapters ahead. This much I know is true. What it holds, who knows. But I’m ready. Because this time I … Read More

These words. This has been my go to quote for years. Each time I’m suffering I reach for these words like the warm sage wisdom of my elders. I wrap myself in them, comforted by the truth that life is meant to be lived in all dimensions. The joy. The suffering. The loss and the profound. All of it. Even … Read More

This day and always. I am light. You are light. Even on our darkest days. Today I start a 10 week journey with 9 other souls from across the globe. We are the brave and the broken hearted – just like you. We are wounded and resilient. We are facing some darkness but we are light. Group work is powerful … Read More

2023 I never really know what to say about the end of anything, including the end of a year. It all feels cliche doesn’t it? To usher out the old and ring in the new. Yet it seems so right. To have hope for the future. To hold firmly onto the believe that better is yet to come. And “better” … Read More

December In this season may you find, in the space between darkness and light, the healing you seek. The healing your body and soul needs. Create some quiet, hold tight to the moment of stillness that ushers in the breath of change, of pain, of catharsis. Because change and healing can happen in times of darkness and frost just as … Read More

Reclamation & Revolution The reclamation begins as a whisper. A thought so foreign and intangible it floats by, fleeting and quickly escaping. The hunger for it resisted. The hunger for anything resisted. Muted, like every emotion you have felt or are afraid to feel. Stuffed down and filling you but never offering a fullness. It’s that fullness you avoid, anyhow. … Read More

Afterwards. The afterwards. In our moments of deepest pain, grief, betrayal, and hurt we do not think about what will come next. The “afterwards”. A hostage in the moment. Time standing still. Caught in the firestorm. Washed over by the wave. A narrowed focus. A nightmare becomes real, and a trauma is lived. But there is an afterwards. After the … Read More

Until. Here’s what I’ve learned in working for over 20 years in the helping profession (and through my own struggles): Until you deal with thing(s) that are holding you back, tethering you to old survival skills and behaviour that no longer benefits you, you will be held back from truly growing into your potential. Sure, you may be successful and … Read More
