Who was your favorite singer-songwriter when you were a teenager?
Joni Mitchell was my shero – singing and playing her songs at the top of my lungs kept me sane during my turbulent youth.
At 17, Joni’s inspiration flew me from Chicago to California.
Sitting on a bench at the San Francisco airport. Guitar by my side and a dance bag slug over my shoulder. “CALIFORNIA, I’m coming home…”
Being a bright, creative, and adventurous kid; I graduated high school early, jumped on an airplane, and established residency as a Californian before starting UC Berkeley in the fall.
I had 500 dollars in my bag and two good friends in California. I felt wealthy. Ready. Alive!
Here I am many years later, on another adventurous threshold…
I’m boarding a plane for Ireland in a few days. With a negative COVID test in hand, face mask on, healthy, and totally ready for the next great adventure!
I’ve always thought at this time in my life I’d be working internationally. Guiding transformational retreats in exotic locations and supporting the rich and famous to deepen into meaningful and purpose-driven lives.
Well… four years ago after my dad died, my mom fell apart and I came back to Chicagoland. My mission was to keep an eye on her as she transitioned.
It’s been an incredible four years – loaded with challenges, amazing new friends, lovers, clients and some very healing family times.
Last march in the midst of all that family – the once in a century pandemic hit.
My in person, hands-on somatic movement practice shifted radically into a full out online global transformational coaching business.
It’s magically effective to work non-locally with you virtually. And our global Embodied Living community is a delicious way to shift obsolete mindset patterns, through the body. And embrace life on purpose. No more excuses. It’s our time.
