I know that blog posts are about personal musings. But this second one about my spiritual path strikes a part of me as being so self-cen...

The Heroine's Journey
I think the Heroine’s Journey is a spiritual journey at its core. We uncover more and more of our true selves as we answer the calls that just keep coming - responding to each one by enteri...
How to navigate these times, these days? Are you thinking that we just have to adopt a survival mindset, just endure and be our resilient best until this pandemic is over?
Well, have I got a tool for you, dear Heroine!
What Is Intuitive Visioning?
I teach a process that helps you navigat...
Have you ever walked a labyrinth? I took my first step into a labyrinth, one of my own making, and here’s what happened…I hadn’t planned on going on this journey – but something took over once I stepped into one.
It’s January 2010…
I’m in a studio office in Bath, Maine and I’m taping, with masking...
There’s a lot of work that goes into growth, evolution, and transformation - the gifts we get from taking the Heroine’s Journey. The journey is not a “walk in the park.” We have to enter the Abyss every now and then.
Not on every journey but when “stuff” is ready to come up, then the Heroine g...
Here it is, our first offering of just the right thing for those real-life heroines, young and old, in your lives. When you want to know about what makes a Real-Life Heroine happy, it works to ask them – so I did.

Here are the ideas my team and I put together and some from the women i...

Are you on the yellow brick road? Are you getting a Call…no, not that kind! I’m talking about the kind that upends your life - that shakes you up and ultimately, changes you — the kind that evolves you more into your “heroine-self”.
Receiving The Call
Calls are definitely hard to put a fin...
Just who do you know yourself to be?
Do you know who you are…who you really are?
More than ever before women are encouraged to step up, lean in, speak up. We know it’s vital that the feminine voice is heard – and we are using our voices more and more. But, let’s face it, we still need help...
Here we go again! Are you hearing it as much as I am – this complaint, this worry about Covid, the Delta variant, making us change our plans…yet, again?
We like closure, we humans. We like things to be over – and this one just isn’t getting over, is it? We are in transition… we have been here for...
The Heroine (that’s you) is in her comfort zone or what we call Ordinary Life, in Journey terms – and she hears a Call to do something – often it’s a call to change - something.
