I was in a foreign country, and had backed myself into a corner. I couldn’t shake the discomfort I was feeling about a big decision I was on the brink of saying yes to. The decision involved a good chunk of money. But the most challenging part was I felt that I was...

Devotion is one of my favorite words… It connects us to something larger than ourselves. It reminds us that we actually are held, supported, guided. It can help us take our hands off the wheel. 😉 Dancing is devotion to me. Teaching is devotion to me. And my highest,...

I was having a conversation with someone (let’s call her Annie), and the first thing she said to me was, “I have to get over the selfish feeling of wanting more for myself.” Annie was STUCK and struggling with how to have the next breakthrough in her business, so she...

A few months ago, many of my private clients timidly asked, “how am I doing?”  They all wanted a personal assessment, a review of their progress. I thought to myself, wow, this is a consistent pattern right now. These people are putting their hearts, bodies, minds,...

Today I want to share a beautiful meeting that happened in my Permission to be Prosperous workshop last week. (Watch the workshop replay here.) “Becoming available to something greater” is a theme I’ve been working with for 40 years, as a dancer, teacher,...

A friend of mine who lives in the Bitterroot mountains, was telling me about a barn she drives by every day.  It’s a very old barn and it has a lot of history.  Many generations have worked in this barn. The newest owners of the property and barn wanted to preserve...

Picture this… You trust yourself fully. You always know your next best step to have what you want in life. You have a deep understanding of your strengths and weaknesses. You live in joy and freedom. Your decision making is easy breezy. That sounds pretty good,...

 I was sitting at the beautiful Brooklyn Academy of Music theater in my early 30’s, watching a dance performance by a successful choreographer, and thinking… Gosh, this must have cost so much money. I didn’t have an abundance consciousness at the time. I hadn’t...

I think there’s a flawed premise out there that once you make a decision to do something… like finally go for that thing you’ve always wanted… that you’ll be in the clear… and in love and ease with every moment of your work from there on out. One of my mentors called...

Last month, I made a completely impulsive decision to fly to Sedona, AZ for a small-group event with the comedian turned transformational speaker Kyle Cease. And I got the transformation I didn’t even know I was looking for! There was no “rhyme or reason” for the...

Comparison can be a dream killer, so I want to give you something today that will help if you find yourself in toxic comparison. First, that type of “judgement” is part of our nature. We look at something (or someone) and think it’s bigger or smaller, faster or...

You may know by now that many of my clients come to me to… have more clarity and time to focus on their brilliant work, and create a life that their spirit is longing for. It’s not always money that’s guiding their commitment to growth. It’s the deep desire to live...

I’m not gonna tell you the secret right away. I’m going to take you on a journey (but not a very long one) to share with you what I know to be deeply true through experience in my own life and through watching my clients do things like… - make $20,000 doing something...

Earlier this year I was at the movie premiere of Super Pets… not the official one, but the opening day of the movie at the Chicago AMC theater for my niece’s birthday. I was super psyched because the last time I saw a kid’s movie (Sing 2), I literally cried about 15...

Welcome back! Here’s a story that could help when you’re feeling out of sorts... I recently attended a powerful meditation training, and sometimes at the end of a 90 minute meditation, I can’t just pop up and run to the lunch buffet! So on this particular day, I sat...
