The One Thing To Remember When It All Feels Like Too Much

It’s been a record year of uncertainty, pain, anger, and loss. It feels like the whole world is stuck in the ‘upside down’ and none of us know how to get out of it. And now, we find ourselves bracing for a second wave of struggle as we anticipate what’s to come with Covid, the …

Choosing to stand in the Tragic Gap

Have you ever found yourself in the kind of dilemma where ‘staying’ would feel like a betrayal of integrity, settling, or being complicit — and ‘leaving’ would mean avoiding conflict, giving up, or running away?

Meeting the Good & the Bad

It’s still early in the morning here – the kids have gone off to school, the coffee is hot, and I’m tapping away on my laptop under a cozy duvet, made warmer still by the dog-weight of Guinness, who is sound asleep beside me. I feel gratitude. It’s been a record year for my business. …

5 Essential Questions to Help You Face 2017: My Alt-Inauguration Gift to You!

As we begin this New Year, many of us are still reeling from the uncertainty and instability in our political landscapes. Although I’m a Canadian, the aftermath of the US election has hit close to home. For most of November and December, I found myself drifting between two extreme reactions.
