When the Body Speaks: From Heart to Voice

When the body speaks, I listen. Voice, heart, and root — aligned in love, grounded in truth.

Fear is a natural reaction to moving closer to the truth. – Pema Chödrön The Body Speaks Lately, my body has been talking to me in ways I can no longer ignore.

Love and Fear Together: Standing in the Fire

Fear and love rise together. Strength is letting love lead.

Meeting the Wall Sometimes, with those closest to us, we meet a wall of energy. No words, just the silent force of back off, leave me alone. In moments like these, fear rises. Will I be rejected? Will I lose the connection I long for? And yet, love often rises too. I want to soften,… Continue reading Love and Fear Together: Standing in the Fire

The Frequency of Love

What if the curtain lifted and we remembered? What if we saw that everything is frequency and energy— trees, flowers, rocks, even you and me— all part of the same river of light. Form is the costume. Energy is the dancer. And at the heart of it all: love.

I’ve been using AI as a creative partner; it helps me with research, organization, and finding my words. So, when I read a post warning that chat histories might appear on Google, that old familiar rush of fear rose up — the reflex that says, “You’ve done something wrong. You’ll be shamed. You should hide.”… Continue reading The Frequency of Love

Dear Harper: A Mirror for Tender Fierceness

From child to young woman — love is the thread that carries us forward.

As I reflect on my grandniece’s journey from child to young woman, I’m reminded of words that capture the paradox of her love and strength: There is nothing more tender than fierce, nothing more fierce than tenderness. — Glennon Doyle My Dearest Harper, You may be too young to read these words right now—you are… Continue reading Dear Harper: A Mirror for Tender Fierceness

The Heart of an Empath

To be an empath is to feel the world in your own skin.

How to care for yourself when you feel the world too deeply This reflection follows my recent writing on Unconditional Love.

To be an empath is to feel the world in your… Continue reading The Heart of an Empath

Unconditional Love: The Space That Remains

The curtain lifts, the sky opens, and love is revealed as the ground beneath everything.

The Confession I have been grappling with words, wondering what to say about the concept of unconditional love. Not because I don’t believe in it, but because the truth of it is so vast it almost defies language. Every time I tried to write, my ego—the need to “get it right”—pushed hard. I felt like… Continue reading Unconditional Love: The Space That Remains

Even through the cracks, love shines on.

Love is the whole thing. We are only pieces. — Rumi Sometimes love feels far away, hidden beneath the weight of our days. Yet when we pause and listen, we remember: love has never left us.

What the F*ck?! My Journey From Anger to Vastness

Part One begins at the root — where anger and fear live — with only the faintest glimmer of what lies beyond.

Part one of three Your Version of God Simply Does Not Serve Me I’m tired of defending myself and my gender. I’m tired of proving my equality, my worthiness, simply because I am female. I’m tired of this all-male club. Dang people! It is time to drop this damn fairytale and start telling the truth.… Continue reading What the F*ck?! My Journey From Anger to Vastness

The Wound and the Journey

Part Two enters the realm of the wound and the journey — from the depths of emotion toward the first glimmers of healing.

Part two of three … It happened in a meditation circle. After our quiet practice, we would share about our spiritual lives and any struggles we were having. When it came to my turn, I burst into tears. Through my sobs, I confessed my horrible secret: I believed I was the one person in all… Continue reading The Wound and the Journey
