how to keep connected to your spirit (in the midst of everything else)

how to keep connected to your spirit (in the midst of everything else)

There is so much tugging right now. Can you feel it? It can literally be tugging from your kids or partner. It can be friends, family, volunteer groups tugging for your attention, for your time. It can be social media tugging for a reaction. It can be work tugging you to put more hours in. ItContinue Reading

unfinished, incomplete and energy.

unfinished, incomplete and energy.

  How many unfinished things do you have laying around? Taxes? Bills? Medical paperwork? etc. Paintings? Books? Workshop ideas?   Unfinished projects suck up energy. It might not use all your attention, but it is using energy, running like a computer app in the background of your phone, eating up your battery.   When you getContinue Reading

fitting you back together

fitting you back together

I wanted to share my heart with you, like if you and I were hanging out here together. ‘Cause we are. Virtually.   Sister, do you have trouble fitting ALL the pieces of yourself together? The masculine get-shizzle-done part and the feminine intuitive-creative part? I do. And I teach it.   Sometimes I feel like HumptyContinue Reading

ready to retreat?

ready to retreat?

Can you believe 2016 is almost over?   I was thinking about this time last year. I was prepping last year’s Woman Unleashed Retreat and doing end of the year things for the kids school. Kinda like this year. Do you remember what you were doing at this time last year?   What has changed?Continue Reading

You’re gonna be scared anyways. Might as well have something to show for it.

You’re gonna be scared anyways. Might as well have something to show for it.

Sunday I was attending the Color of Woman Graduation online for the class of 2016 from my laptop (yay for Livestreams) and I heard poet, activist (and school founder Shiloh Sophia’s mom) Caron McCloud say,   “You’re gonna be scared anyways. Might was well have something to show for it.”   Let that sink in.Continue Reading

You can only make a difference when you have the energy to do it

You can only make a difference when you have the energy to do it

It always comes back to energy. I teach the Cycle of Creation, what it takes to create something, anything in your life. A painting, book, job, money, relationship, body. When you create something new, you’re bound to get a little stuck in the cycle. You’re stretching where you’re not feeling comfortable. You may get stuck in yourContinue Reading

have you done enough?

have you done enough?

Once you have healed enough, it is time to help with the healing of others. I remember the first time I heard this was from my painting mentor Shiloh Sophia the first year I was working with her. I began painting just for me. It was the first selfish decision I made as a mother; toContinue Reading

This is dedicated to the healers, mystics, coaches, teachers and creatives who are worried your soul’s calling isn’t going to make you any money.   When I first decided to try and make my creative business work part of my was SO excited.

how to let abundance in.

how to let abundance in.

  Ready to free up your creativity? Ready for abundance to flow in? The last couple weeks I’ve been on a purge. Decluttering. Letting go. Making space for abundance to come in. I first learned the power of decluttering and abundance from Denise Duffield Thomas best-selling author of Rich Bitch, Lucky Bitch. I noticed atContinue Reading

I haven’t always been creative. I used to believe it was a gift given to a select few at birth. That’s. not. true.   Creativity is something everyone is given at birth. It is a part of your make-up. Part of your path. Your purpose. The way you’re wired.   The thing is if we’reContinue Reading
