Sacred Pause in the Bedroom
I confess that I’m a post-menopausal woman who’s feeling more deeply satisfied sexually than I’ve ever felt in my entire life. It’s even better (way better, frankly) than during my wild polyamorous decade when I had some truly hot lovers and crazy amazing sexapades (there was all that drama but that’s another chapter).
One of the most significant moments of the year
With the hustle-bustle of holidays upon us, I’m reaching out to make sure you don’t miss the golden opportunity of the solstice on Saturday. This potent tipping point, heralding the longest night here in the North (or the apex of the light in the Southern Hemisphere) is a celestial gift of transformation for those paying attention and ready to receive.
Broken Hearted Gratitude
On this eve of the holiday we call Thanksgiving here in the U.S., I find myself in a paradox of gratitude and grief. I’m reminded anew that “awakening,” while offering us the keys to liberation, also asks us to unlock our denial, to see the ways we’ve been complicit in our own imprisonment. It’s the shadow, the contraction necessary before birth, the yucky part.
Rings True
The day before our national “Independence” holiday and within hours of the New Moon eclipse, my wedding rings disappeared. It seems they didn’t want to be married to me anymore. They wanted their freedom. They were eclipsed.
Spoken Words on Ecstasy and The Change
I have a new poem-piece to share with you, playing with words to express my current moment of post-menopausal sensuality. May it give you hope if you’re in the heat of it, allay some of the fear if it’s on the horizon, and bring you a smile if you’re on the other side. No matter...
Meeting the Desire for Masculine Attention
A coaching client reached out recently with this question: “I have been single for a very long time and, while I don’t experience loneliness and fully enjoy my solitude, I notice that occasionally, I will get hit pretty hard with a very specific craving for masculine attention. A...
Overcome Obstacles the Shakti Way
As Spring arrives and appears to effortlessly bloom with possibility, what do you do when all this fertility just aggravates your own desire to grow, pushing you up against obstacles? Make no mistake about it, the arising of anything new will inevitably bring up old stuff that needs clearing...
I Thought I Knew About Marriage
With three marriages between us, we thought we knew what it would mean to get married. Turns out, it’s been full of surprises. People ask me if it’s different now. Yes. Because we’ve been together for 7 years, marriage felt like the logical next step. Not one I undertook lightly of course but...
To Mother, Like Verb Hugging Noun
Honoring the Mother in you. The one who has opened to life, who said Let it Be Me to hold this creation, this child, paint brush, soup spoon, message, mission, this gift of mine to give the world. Who agreed to hold the memory of All As One and do what often feels like the impossible task of...
Trouble at the Border…
I’m finally emerging from this period of silence to connect with you again. I’ve been quietly birthing my new podcast, SheSource, and sharing very little about it. And feeling so weird about that. Why do I do this, when I know we were never designed to give birth alone? It’s because it freaks me...
