  • There Are No Limits

    There Are No Limits

    Do you feel that the world has limited you, and that there are many things holding you back, or at least in place? The second principle of Huna of Hawaiian Shamanism is Kala, which stands for: There are no limits. When you read that statement, how do you feel? What comes up for you? Have…

    Another Week of Social Media and News Fasting Done!

    I’ve come to realize that I need to fast from social media and news for about a week regularly now and I just completed my most recent fast this last week. In recent months all this noise from our devices has been really building to a crescendo of discord inside me and it has even…

  • Wayfinding is the Missing Link in Your Life Journey

    Wayfinding is the Missing Link in Your Life Journey

    Are you trying to figure out what to do next in your life? Have you created spreadsheets and lists, detailed out options and their pros and cons?

  • You Are Not Your Diagnosis

    You Are Not Your Diagnosis

    Many clients come to me claiming they have something. They say they have ADHD. Or OCD. Or anxiety. Depression. As if they were already diagnosed by a clinician. It becomes part of them. Their belief system. That they have some condition and so thereby it becomes the fall back reason for some aspects of their…

  • Make a Promise to Yourself Now!

    Make a Promise to Yourself Now!

    When was the last time you made a promise to yourself and actually kept it? Or is your life a string of broken promises, like: Was it last week when you said you were going to work out 3x/ week but didn’t? Was it telling yourself you wouldn’t procrastinate on a work project and you…

  • Will AI Replace Us Coaches?

    Will AI Replace Us Coaches?

    This UCSD research came across my feed. It showed that patients rated AI chatbot responses more emphathetic than physicians. How funny. AI > Physicians!

  • Take Charge of Yourself

    Take Charge of Yourself

    Do you put yourself in the hands of others, or fate, to just fix everything that you don’t like about you? Or do you take charge of your condition? Actively control what you do, how you feel, how you walk through life and show up in it? Have you thought about this? How our society…

  • Are You Not Ready to Move Out of Your Discomfort?

    Are You Not Ready to Move Out of Your Discomfort?

    Every client shows up saying they hate their lives and want change. But many clients don’t. Or won’t. Or can’t. No matter what they say, what we design, what they say they will do after the session – still no movement. Despite the negativity they feel, they still stay in place. Do you know someone…

  • What is a Passion?

    What is a Passion?

    Are you living your life aligned to your passions? Many of my clients come to me searching for more fulfilling lives. And all they need to do is have clarity on what their passions are. Once they have clarity, then they can know what to align their lives to! However, what exactly is a passion?…

  • If There is No Struggle, There is No Progress

    If There is No Struggle, There is No Progress

    Wise words from long ago… I see many clients today who hate the struggle. They want everything, but don’t want to work for it. Or shy away from when it gets tough going. Why can’t everything they desire just show up? But yet it is so true that everything in life comes with some struggle.…

  • Doing Nothing is the Right Thing to Do

    Doing Nothing is the Right Thing to Do

    How do you feel when you are doing nothing? Just hanging out. Not doing anything that feels purposeful, getting you anywhere, moving you towards anything. Do you feel anxious? Missing out on something? Wondering if you’re wasting time? Fearing that someone might judge you? Something else? It’s so funny. What makes it so hard to…

  • Have You Experienced the Power of Your Intention Today?

    Have You Experienced the Power of Your Intention Today?

    I have experienced the power of intention in many different ways and in my clients. It’s a common activity we do to help cement new attitudes and ways of doing things. Time and time again I myself have set my intention strongly and seen the world mold itself to what my intent was. Big things.…

  • When Your Massive Intellect Will Fail

    When Your Massive Intellect Will Fail

    In our 21st century world, we revere the mind. We love smart people. We give them Nobel Prizes, fame and fortune. We think that the world will be saved by technology and faster computers. We push our kids to study so that they will get into the best colleges and learn more and more. We…

  • Time is NOT Your Enemy

    Time is NOT Your Enemy

    We live in a rush, rush world. Everything needs to be done faster. And we want everything yesterday (thank you Amazon Prime delivery). We have no patience at all. It can’t get done soon enough. And if it isn’t done as soon as we want, we go off the deep end. We feel stressed. Frustrated.…
