From the Vault: What We Believe, Part 5
I have long considered myself a nomad. In 15 years, I've lived in at least 15 homes. But something happened along the way. The more I moved, the harder it became.We're moving again in two weeks and I'm feeling it. And so I've had to a LOT of inner work lately to keep myself going. I know I'm not the only one who struggles with this from time to time. So I thought it'd be helpful for this series to talk about what survival mode looks like—and what you can do if you find yourself there....

Jesus Wept: On Grief and Reincarnation
It's helpful to talk about grief.

Follow Your (Own) Lead
Hello friends! This week I've been thinking about what it means to own my truth. In figuring out and journaling what that means for me, I landed on seven big ideas.1. There are infinite possibilities. (And some say infinite realities.)2. Experts can only get you so far.3. Feel what's true.4. Trust yourself and others.5. Resist the temptation to convince others.6. Ask yourself, Am I doing this because it's expected of me?7. Try it on and see what happens.HONORABLE MENTIONS:Caroline Myss's...

Rebekah Berndt on Initiation
When the pandemic first began, Rebekah went Live on Facebook to talk about the concept of Initiation. I was, as many of us were, still falling into the deep well of uncertainty and I found the idea comforting and helpful. No matter where you find yourself today, I hope you will, too.Rebekah is a friend and psychic/spiritual colleague of mine. She hails from the same progressive Christian vein that I came up in and I so appreciate her smart and open-minded perspective. The conversation itself is raw and unedited. That part felt right, t...

Shifting Into Shalom
Hello friends! I have a new episode for you and I am so excited to share this one. As always, I am not pushing my own beliefs. What I want to do instead is share them, and in doing so, invite you to see how it feels when you try them on for yourself. What would change if you believed on a core level that you are immortal, that you are magic, and that you are good? In this episode, I outline 5 beliefs to help us shift into Shalom, or wholeness. They are:1. We...

How I Do It All
Two main things! First, in this episode I took a moment to rave about my amazing partner. Can I just gush for another minute, because no joke, as I was editing this episode at 10pm at night he was making me dinner. Swoon. Second, I also talk about how I'm not the parent who has her kids in all sorts of activities. BUT, I forgot to add that one of the things I do with my kiddos is look for ways to combine our passions. And the latest culmination of that is the gaming YouTube channel I...

Negative Other Talk
This is an episode that's been on my radar for a while, but I wanted to let it simmer in my mind before I created it. Talking about the woes of complaining and gossip isn't the sexiest thing. It's not the fun spiritual stuff, but still, it's important. This is honestly something I have struggled with myself. And I discovered some pretty epic spiritual cookies in the process of working through it and trying to do better. So I wanted to share! Toward the end, I mention The Reframe Challenge. Although it will officially run...
