What if you knew that you are always being led in your life? That life works! That’s actually one of my fundamental operating principles.

For as long as I can remember I passionately wanted to know how life worked. I used to think that others had access to a grand rulebook and that I was missing out.

A fundamental truth about life is that everything changes.

Even though we are only a month and a half into the new year, so many people I’m with are telling me that they long for more spaciousness in their life.

4M ago46:42

46:42

Do you love gardens? Do you worry about climate change? I love how my guest today begins her latest book. “A seed is the dormant dream of a new life. A hope, a prayer, the smallest version of an entire life.” If you are a gardener, yes, you know the fundamental value of seeds, without which life can’t continue.

My teacher Dawn taught me years ago about the transformative potential of business. That business was a place where creativity could shine.

In my decades of being alive, of working with people first as a psychotherapist, then as a spiritual mentor, I have often noted the nuanced journey of life.

Radical Responsibility: a Conversation with Fleet Maull 51:03

Freedom is often something we say we want, with the implication being that we don’t have it. We aren’t free, because of x, y, or z. Then we look outside ourselves to find fault, laying the blame for our situation (whatever that may be) out there. When nothing changes, the ego is safe in the notion that the situation isn’t our fault. The means to ch…

Has “Cheers” aged well? Was Norm the norm in 1982? Was the toxic behavior in the show’s Boston-based bar a device to expose the destructive nature of misogyny or was it just a casual reflection of a patriarchal system?
