The Process of Unfolding

Many people come to me for spiritual counseling. The reason they come is because something isn’t working in their life. They want to turn it around, but they need help. I, and other ministers and spiritual practitioners, are here to be that assistance, but we cannot do it for you. Our job is to assist […]

I’m Going Back and I’m Glad

I am one who encourages others to let go of their pasts and to move into the present. Then why am I taking the time to completely review my past under the guise of my one-woman show, “How I Came to Me…n”? As you can see from the title, I am reviewing it through my […]

Rise Above It!

For anyone who have been in the public eye in any way, we know we are always going to be critiqued. It seems to be our nature, as creative beings to critique everything. As a person who trained as an actor and singer, I was constantly under someone’s critique, whether it was my director, teacher, […]

I Can’t Teach You That…

I have a gift for telling the story of a song and using my voice to do that. Even when I sing in Italian, I can do it. It is innate in me. My voice teacher once told me, when noticing this in me, “That is not something I can teach you. That is your […]

If You Can Fly, Then Soar!

“What’s wrong with wanting more. If you can fly, then soar! Why settle for just a piece of sky?” These words are from a song from the musical “Yentel” I feel so in-tuned with them right now. Have you ever watched a bird actually soar, not flap it’s wing to get where it’s going, but […]

As I Grow Older

I am growing older but what I know is that this can be a enlightening and healthful experience. We are in an ever expanding age of understanding of our bodies and their connection to our minds. We have the opportunity to decide what we want to believe, and how that belief can change our living […]

A Better Vengeance

In his book, More Together Than Alone, Mark Nepo writes, “We’re always capable of both: of destroying the world out of vengeance and creating a new world out of loss.” He goes on to tell the story of the Medici Circle. It goes something like this… Lorenzo and Guiliano de Medici were brothers from a rich […]

Mastering Turning Points

During this time that I have spent working on a show I am performing in a couple of weeks called “How I Came to Me…n,” I have been exploring the turning points in my life. What is a turning point? The dictionary definition is “a point at which a significant change occurs.” In general, turning […]

God of the Living

Have you ever heard the Bible quote, “God is not the God of the dead, but of the Living because to him all are alive.”? Now, let me clarify that I know God is not a man but the Presence within all of us. It is from that place I am writing. And, if we have […]

Healing Begins with Me

There is more good in the world than anything else. It is the best of times, not the worst of times. What we focus on grows, and it might seem like the hate is growing because we are focusing on it. What is going right, is my question? Are we focusing on the good or […]
