Taking Command in your Life

AKA: Setting your internal weather system

March 2021

As I sat down to write this blog, I was noticing the way the light is starting to be brighter, and the sun is coming up earlier and setting a little later each day here in the northern hemisphere.  It’s a time when nature is announcing Spring, regardless of what the actual weather is doing.

Many of us are less connected with the natural rhythms of nature than we were even a few years ago ...

Its time! Now’s the time for you to align with your Purpose, Awaken, Rise and Shine!

The first new moon for 2021 is January 12 or 13 (depending where in the world you live).

Some folks may not pay attention to the cycles of the moon, yet those on the frontlines of healthcare know that full moon times can be more dramatic than other times of the month.

I love to set intentions aligned with the new moon cycles – more so that by the clocks and calendars we work with. I find a more natural ...

The Gift for January: to restructure your Notion of Forgiveness from Framing to Freedom!

Hi everyone,

Normally for January I’d be writing about resolutions and becoming clear on what we would love to create for the year.  This year is different. 

I’ve noticed there seems to be a split going on in society.  Some folks are becoming more and more afraid, while others are focusing on healing and greater personal freedom.  This seems to be the case regardless of the level of “lock down” people are in and experiencing.  It’s showing up in many ways, including ...

Fall and Winter Lockdown –

Let’s not lose the Joy!

We are now into the Fall season in Canada. I live in the country and nature all around is starting to prepare for winter.  I too am preparing, both the house and the property.  Yet this year is a little different.

Yesterday I had 2 experiences that struck me:

One was when I was cleaning my windows – that’s something I do in the Fall around here. Many folks might say that’s a Spring job, but with ...

The more we copy or imitate others, the less we are ourselves.

A while ago I was watching snipits of the early auditions for American Idol.  A 17 year old came into the audition room and was asked who her influences were.  She mentioned an artist who was her “idol” and that she was signing a song by that artist.  After starting to sing, she was asked to stop almost immediately.  On her 3rd song choice, which happened to be from church, her real tone and personality came through.  The judges spoke ...

Happy Mother’s Day!

What a wonderful day to celebrate Mothers, nurturers, and yes! Mother Earth! Here are 3 fast ways to celebrate Mothers and the Nurturers among us –

Most people who are in the “pause” mode are managing and becoming rather acclimatized to being in or around our homes.  Human beings are a pretty acclimatizing bunch.  Yet its a strange time we’re in when we go out only for groceries and the like, and THAT feels like a major deal.

Have you noticed that you have ...

Is it Time to Up Level? 3 Keys to Transforming your Life

What’s in a “pivot”? Re-visioning Your World after COVID-19

Last week, within a space of 2 days, I found myself involved in several conversations where the word “pivot” or “pivoting” was used.  I hadn’t heard that in a while.  New buzz words are here now, from “social distancing” (words that together might have been an oxymoron until COVID-19!), to “new normal”.  Pivoting is not new, and I’ve noticed that it tends to show up in times of change. It appears to have been resurrected as we find ways to ...

Another tool to deal with fear, doubt and worry…

Recently I was giving a Q&A talk and was asked this question: How do you shift from fear, doubt or worry?

My response? The fastest way to shift our state, regardless of what it is, is through GRATITUDE.

Now, that may seem challenging in the situation we find ourselves. Everyone is isolating, and life is certainly not what we’ve known as “normal”.  Yet this is not necessarily gratitude for the situation we find ourselves in, though there ...

One Way to Deal with Fear, Doubt and Worry

Hi everyone,

As you may have read, I’ve been a lawyer for 33 years. I’ve also been a coach with the Ontario Law Society and, prior to that, was part of the peer support network for the Ontario Lawyers Assistance Program. I’ve now been coaching for 13 years and work with some amazing programs!

So, let’s talk about a tool you can use to calibrate Fear.
