What My Divorce Taught Me
Back in 2015, I was struggling so much in my marriage. Lackluster might be one of the words for it. It wasn’t as if there was no connection. I still had a best friend in the relationship, but I wanted so much more than that. Over 20 years of raising three kids, being in two full-time careers, and building a business together, it all had a deadening impact. It really isn’t an easy task to maintain passion, intimacy, and connection with the standard modern model of life we have.

Being Cherished
We all deserve to be cherished, loved, and appreciated for the unique beautiful beings we are — and that includes all parts of ourselves our hearts, our gifts, our presence, desires, the way we show up, our bodies (even in imperfection), our quirks and much more.
Creating Sacred Space
I’ve found that having a personal shrine in my home has been a haven from the stress I experience on a daily basis. It is the place where I meditate daily but it also serves as a reference point for sanity and clarity when it seems hard to find.
The Doctrine of Basic Badness
For those of us who grew up in the West, there are two strains of philosophy that form our consciousness. One is the Platonic philosophy that everything around us is a (lesser) reflection of some kind of external ideal. Second is the Judeo-Christian view of God’s judgment and our own sin nature. Taken together we develop a belief that we are all innately capable of evil. We have to overcome this natural state of badness.

Stephanie Part II: Weeding Out the Seeds of Shame
Last time I shared about my battle with shame in my youth. When I entered the workforce, I discovered a whole new realm of shame and perfectionism. In the workplace, my perceived failures were now measured by more tangible things, such as dollars, promotions, and opportunities. No matter how I succeeded, I could always point to a peer or a friend who was doing better or who had succeeded a little bit more. This added a new dimension to my feeling of shame.
Stephanie Part I: The Secret Life of Shame
I was so young I don’t remember that day or the confident, happy feeling. It is safe to say that even today it is an unfamiliar feeling. The feeling of being an imposter, of not measuring up, of failing, and of self-hatred has occupied the vast majority of my life.
Laura Part II: The Monster Under the Bed
If you weren’t with us last week, you can catch up here. This week, I promised to share my biggest challenge, a secret I harbored in my body, that was like a monster under my bed. I managed to suppress it from my conscious awareness for a very long time, but fear was still present.

Accept the Sunflowers

Well, things didn’t go as planned.
Love in a Time of War
Part I
How do we possibly be love, or contribute love to a world that is at war? This seems to be a significant question for us all as we watch Ukraine being invaded. It is so easy to feel helpless or not want to look at the news.
When Bad Things Happen
A friend of mine called this week after watching the news and she talked about feeling fear, anxiety and dread about world events. After talking for a while I realized how often I try to avoid the discomfort of life’s events. The truth is that, despite my discomfort, terrible things happen every day.
