Making Personal Change
You’ve been “working on yourself,” paying more attention to living an intentional, healthy, happy life. Do you ever feel like now there’s a whole new set of things to judge yourself about? I’m supposed to be all about soul, so now I feel like I’ve failed whenever I get lost in ego. I’m working on [...]
What about when life is really hard? When it feels really rough? Today, I want to share one of the things that helps me. We have lots of choices about how we identify – different ways we can think of ourselves, different concepts we can hold of who and what we actually are. For me, [...]

It’s helped me un-suffer (that’s my new word for something that stops our suffering) time and time and time again.

What difference can be made by one person, one voice? On the issues you are most passionate about, can your one voice really make a difference? We’ve all wondered about this at one time or another. I think you’d be surprised by what the scientific research has to say about it. I was. Let’s go [...]
How do you change the color of the sky? I’ve always been a bit mystified when I hear personal growth and life coachy folks telling us to love ourselves more — as if this was something we could simply choose to do. How we feel about ourselves is like the color of our inner skies. [...]

First things first, a little update. As you know, for the past few weeks I’ve been sharing a lot about my Playing Big program, as registration for the next session closed earlier this week. I want to say thank you to all of you readers – for taking the time to learn about the program, [...]
