If life is a journey, then make sure it’s worth the trip. As your coach, we’ll look at where you’re coming from (what was) and current challenges (what’s new). Along the way, you’ll probably learn profound truths about your inner child — your original self who wants to help you create the life you want, based on who you really are. Meeting is easy from anywhere in the world because I coach by phone and ZOOM, a lovely videoconferencing site. Read more about my coach approach and the Inner Child Institute here.

I spent four fascinating days in the capitol city of this tiny island nation. Between the food, conversations and art, I went home feeling updated, with a more global sense of self. Taipei gave me another chance to …
More than once, I’ve been involved with men who cheated on me. More than once, I stayed too long and loved too much. There’s a lot of women out there who can relate. We’re a huge voting block in the 2016 presidential election. Yet, where are the fancy experts analyzing our political clout? Then again, who would they interview, if …
Mothers get blamed for everything. So if you want to know why I turned out this way, just look at my mom. She was a diva in denial who did and said crazy things.
