Dismantling the Patriarchy, White Supremacy and the Impacts of Capitalism Through Self-Care

May 20, 2021

Do you listen to the voice in your head? The way you talk to yourself, the way you are so critical about every decision you make.  The two voices that are often present are the "critic" and the "perfectionist."  They often work in tandem to keep us small, and hidden…afraid. These two voices are symptoms of the Patriarchy, White Supremacy and Capitalism. What would it be like if … [Read more...] about Dismantling the Patriarchy, White Supremacy and the Impacts of Capitalism Through Self-Care

Dream a Little Dream with Me

April 22, 2020

Another week has passed.  It’s a blur, just like all the other weeks.  I’m having to follow some of my old routines in order to ensure that I do basic things like brush my teeth and wash my body.  I’ve noticed there is no weekend anymore, just the week.  Perhaps even just the month.  The month of March.  The month of April.  What did you notice this week? What … [Read more...] about Dream a Little Dream with Me

The Great … Pause

April 15, 2020

What day are we on? I remember my last day in the office was Tuesday, March 17th.  I proudly wore my green to celebrate St. Paddy’s Day, but there was a heaviness in the air.  We couldn’t go celebrate at bars, or go out to eat, the declaration had been made the day prior … but it hadn’t sunk in yet.  I still had a part of me in denial.

Tired? Brain foggy? This is grief.  Now it is time to lean into that grief.  Have you let … [Read more...] about Don’t Forget to Squeegee the Shower

The Shock is Wearing Off

April 1, 2020

I’ve been spending my days talking to people about their experiences related to the COVID 19 pandemic, whether it’s clients, family or friends there’s a theme.  Last week it was going through the shock and disbelief about what was happening.  As a collective, anxiety was high; uncertainty, fear, and denial all existed at the same time. Now we are settling in, some are establishing … [Read more...] about The Shock is Wearing Off

Coping with Uncertainty

March 25, 2020

NOW WHAT? Most of us are still reeling from the shock about what is going on in our communities and our world with the arrival of the COVID-19 virus.  I have been noticing the parts within me that are becoming more active, the anxious one who wants to worry and read the news, the planner who wants to write down lists of things we can do or buy to feel better or the firefighter part who … [Read more...] about Coping with Uncertainty
