The use of nonviolent communication to make yourself understood and reduce conflict is a perspective we don’t usually consider. I’m exploring it because many people I work with have struggles around not feeling understood. The pain this causes is often the source of disagreements in relationships and work settings.

Finding meaning in life is embedded in all my work and what Lee and I do. You might say it’s like a mission statement if I actually had one. It occurred to me it is very important, yet, I haven’t considered how I actually do it. Let me see if writing helps me define it. […]
Change is something many people say they want but find a multitude of reasons to avoid. Instead, they wait until things get to the breaking point or the point of no return before taking needed action. There is another way. I am working with many people who have explored and implemented a dramatic change process. […]
You may think that doing what you love would make it easy, but really everything takes work and sometimes hard work! if you want to do something big, be prepared, it’s going to be a lot. This lesson is coming home to me lately. I am watching my husband bring a two-year music collaboration project […]

There is a fight ahead for us and advocacy is needed in your best interests. I didn’t fully appreciate that I was living in a time of liberal thinking that could all be taken away so easily and systematically. Now I recognize that “conservative values” is just code language for greed, power, and control. This […]
For most people, wisdom seems to be the pearls that are born out of difficulties. Like the grain of sand in the oyster, over time the constant turning of the experience in our mind produces a jewel of new awareness. It is from the other side of hardship that we often find the lessons in […]
Boundaries have come up frequently with clients and loved ones lately. As the demands on your time and mental and emotional attention pick up, so does the need for boundaries.
