At the first writing of this post in 2017, I had experienced a layoff. If you knew me then, you also knew that I launched my consulting…

Wowsa. It’s 2020. Happy New Year, friends! A short word about 2019. I swear 2019 went by with no regard for my feelings. 🤣Jokes aside, I experienced a lot of stress, struggle and feelings of inadequacy and kind of lost myself there for a while. I was always seeking to make the magic for everyone else, and ended up on…

Photo © Scott Brinegar/Disneyland Photo © Scott Brinegar/Disneyland I grew up watching the Main Street Electrical Parade and cried when it left Disneyland Park in 1996. Then, I rejoiced when it came back for a run at Disney California Adventure in 2001, just in time for our first daughter to experience the magic. Then, it left again in 2010. To…

They’re baaaaaack. Ana, Elsa, Kristoff and Olaf! I’m not sure how you feel about Frozen, but I love it and I am not here to sway you either way, because I am totally biased. I love the story, the characters and YES the music! 🙂 I’m thrilled that the power couple Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez are back with songwriting…

Last year, my focus was on all. the. healing. Recovering from the loss of family, income, lack of self-love and acceptance, amongst other things and more kept surfacing as I was healing. At first I was not sure I picked the right word for 2018, but came to the realization that the healing process is not always pretty. I let…

2017 shook me to my core, broke me and opened my heart in ways that I was not ready to experience, let alone imagine. I felt like I was repeatedly hit with a ton of bricks throughout the year and never enough time to get up and recover from the previous blow. The past year, and my heart, seemed overwhelmed…
