Cuddling and Coaching

This month, I’m teaming up with Kassandra Brown, Cuddlist, and Relationship Coach in my continuing co-authoring blogs.  Cuddlist sessions offer professional platonic touch in a nurturing environment – AKA cuddling. It is a therapeutic modality that is clear, consensual, and empowering. Sessions feel good to both the Cuddlist and the client, with both being welcome to touch […]

Energy Healing and Neurodiversity

This month, I have teamed up with Stacey Philips with Fresh Start in my continuing series of co-authoring blogs.  Are you feeling stuck? You’re not alone! We can feel stuck in many aspects of life- relationship, career, depression, negative thought patterns, grief, weight loss, etc. We can even have a vibrational message, “I’m stuck,” which works like […]

Heat of the Heart and Neurodiversity

This month, I have teamed up with Alexandra Davis of Diamond Star Acupuncture in my continuing series of co-authoring blogs.  The tradition of Chinese medicine goes back at least 2,500 years and is rooted in timeless wisdom that recognizes that: Our bodies follow the same rules and patterns that we see in nature because they […]

Holidays 2021 – Be Prepared!

I get it; being thankful, appreciating friends, family, and other blessings you may have in your life, good cheer toward humanity, hopefulness about the upcoming year.

Shifting Negative Self-Talk

What story are you telling yourself that isn’t supporting you to be who you truly are?  I have a funny, enthusiastic, smart client who is full of shame over things she knows aren’t worth the stress and overwhelm it causes her. For example, she was telling herself that she was a disgusting person when dishes […]

Parents – What your teen really needs for going back to school!

School sucked. Maybe your teen feels the same way. That feeling stayed with me until college. The school was challenging and overwhelming because it was not (and is not) set up for students who have uniquely wired brains. Thankfully, I figured out what worked for me. It isn’t the same for everyone. What works for […]

Unmasking: Life After COVID for the Neurodiverse

Neurodiverse people have unique brain wiring which allows us to see the world in our own way. While this may have challenges in navigating through life, it can be a true blessing.  It […]

Should Your Child Repeat This School Year?

If there was ever a time to repeat the school year, now is the time. My daughters were young for their grade with summer birthdays. I always thought if we ever move, I would have them repeat whatever grade they were in at the time. It never happened. I would never have done that to […]

What Gets Entrance into Your Life?

Over two weeks ago, I said goodbye to most social media.  Here is why I did so and why I think you might want to as well.  I believe that technology should be used as a tool to make life easier and less stressful, much in the same way that I use the shredding blade […]

Working, personal life, and taking care of children keeps most of us busy regularly. As COVID lingers on, many are becoming more stressed and overwhelmed if you throw in some executive function challenges that takes it to a whole new level of overwhelming.  You can bring some harmony to your home and your life.
