Bryon Katie, the creator of The Work, has done a brilliant job of teaching us how to be aware of whose business we are in with our thoughts. There is God’s business, someone else’s business, and our own business. In many ways, the ‘claim your life as your own’ work that I do is all [...]

Relationships get messy sometimes. Messy relationships are part of life and happen for everyone.
I witness this in my own relationships, not just with my significant other. Feelings get triggered here and there. Different points of view stir the pot of the identity called ‘me’. The mirror in front of me reflects back the identity of [...]

For many of the clients who I’ve been privileged to coach responsibility meant over-responsibility, in actuality. What I mean by this is that their openness to question and address what their part is in any relationship dynamic is in the ballpark of self-responsibility…and inner confidence. When responsibility was taken for the other person’s part as [...]

As givers, we know very well what it’s like to give the gift of time. It is time that we give to others in a myriad of ways that express our own strengths and are reflective of our true nature.
Take a moment to reflect on how you give your time to others – to your [...]

All of us know what it’s like to want and even expect to get something from someone else, especially in our intimate relationships. It may be more attention, love, appreciation, acceptance, understanding – the list goes on.
In some way, we want that other person to give us what we didn’t get when we were kids. [...]

An old friend of mine shared with me, “I marvel at what my friends teach me”. She wasn’t talking about learning how to garden or dipping into politics at a deeper level. She was addressing the emotional charges, the judgments, the highs and lows of relationships. Instead of making it about her friends, she takes [...]

When you’re in the process of transition, particularly a major transition, there arises an opportunity to claim your own life at another level. It’s during these times of change that we get to honestly look at all the areas that aren’t working for us. It’s during these times that we get to set new boundaries, [...]

Resistance is a big word that has lots of undercurrents. Resistance impacts the pleasure we get out of life, the peace of mind we experience, the flow and ease of how we move through life’s demands and challenges. It can stop us from receiving love, reaching success (at least our definition of it), and creating [...]

‘Trying to control’ our own lives and the lives of those around us, especially those who are close to us, can be a common human trait. We want people to respond to us the way we want. We have expectations about how someone should be, particularly with us. We can get into thinking we’re right [...]

There’s power in taking a stand. For example, a client of mind has taken a stand for acceptance. When she notices people judging themselves harshly, she challenges them. She also challenges herself.
The impact of this choice to take a stand in this way is that she is tolerant of others and herself at a whole [...]
