“You’ve never been to Vegas?” My friends ask that question each time I tell them, I’m from Arizona and I’ve never been to Vegas. When I was girl, I was curious about the city, because of the movies and as I got older, I never cared to visit the city. This past December everything changed,…

Mindful Monday #105 – Fall in Love with Taking Care of Yourself
Today makes one week since I have been home. My first few days back felt like I just moved here for the first time. I forgot what that experience felt like and I was surprised to experience it all again. Oh the ways I have grown in the past two months while I was working on location. I am a new person….
Called to Rest
I’m sitting in a Starbucks in the southwest as I write. Life is simpler, easier. Miles away are the busy, crowded streets of Los Angeles. I am home. I have fond memories here and I come back often to see my family and friends. I am here to center myself and gain clarity for my next…
A Series of Leaps
“All roads lead to this…” I have told myself repeatedly these past few weeks. It all started with a harmless post on the gifts that come from breakups. What I initially wanted to say, evolved into something different and guided me to a deeper reflection. The day Breakeven pt I posted, all I could think…
The Soulmate – 1 Year Anniversary – Reflection
One year ago today, I was in Arizona for my month of writing and went out for a girls night. A week prior, I had just forgiven myself for my actions or lack of action in a relationship that went on longer then it should have and weighed heavily on me since we break up….
My Aching Heart
Apparently this year is the year where I write blog posts that scare me. Of the handful of blog post that I have hesitated to both write and post this year, this one has caused me to hold my breath because I am terrified of what I will uncover. I don’t know where to start?…
My Month of Writing – 1 Year Anniversary – Reflection
Some moments are a whisper, that have the biggest impact on our lives.
White Blank Page
I’ve been feeling antsy lately like there is something more I could be doing, but I don’t know what that is? I haven’t figured out what prompted this feeling and where it is guiding me. January was All Things New: new job, new apartment, new friends, new community involvement and a new leadership role. February…
Let the Dust Settle
I wrote this piece to be posted last Friday, but my vulnerability radar went through the roof. I decided to wait a week, to think about this piece before I post it and still the radar is high. It’s not the honesty that I fear, but the realizations that will come as the result of…
The Road Less Traveled
As my month of writing approached last year, I said to the universe that I wanted to let go of anything and everything that wasn’t working for me. Letting go to that extreme, on top of a leap of faith, is a very powerful mixture. Be warned if you in anyway feel inspired to go…
Improv and The Art of Presence
I’ve studied improv for almost two years and I absolutely love it. Improv allows you to be a kid again and invites your imagination to run wild. It takes you to new places, characters and stories based on an audience suggestion. From the audience perspective, improv appears to be as simple as the conversation between…
Down the Rabbit Hole – Lessons from My Month of Writing – Part III
My month of writing was my intention to go home and write the last piece of my solo show. My second intention, to let go of what wasn’t working for me, was the catalyst or inciting incident, which caused the series of events and realizations that unfolded before me. The universe provided a space for…
A New Perspective – Lessons from My Month of Writing – Part II
My month of writing was my intention to go home for one month to write the last piece of my solo show. While home, I quickly learned that my purpose for being there was beyond my intention. I am very reflective and can always see all sides of any issue, but that month taught me…
The Master Shift – Lessons from My Month of Writing – Part I
My month of writing was my intention to go home for one month to write the final piece of my solo show, (which is about the three hardest moments of my life). The weeks leading up to that time, I noticed moments from my past that popped up and surprised me. I didn’t know that…
Mindful Monday #33 – Do Something You’ve Never Done
The time has come for me to write about my month of writing reflection. The profound realizations and changes that occurred during the month of May and June have become a part of me and how I live my life. This year has been incredibly hard with all the universal truths that I have both…
