Kindness is Good Medicine
“Constant kindness can accomplish much.
As the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding,
mistrust, and hostility to evaporate.”
~~ Albert Schweitzer
KINDNESS: The Science of Living Your Healing Out Loud
Greetings to all my precious people!!
As we complete our journey through the C.O.A.C.H. Method—from Curiosity through Hope & Healing—many of you have asked: “What’s next? How do I live this transformation in the world?”
The answer has been whispering itself to me for weeks, and this morning it became clear: KINDNESS.
Not the passive, people-pleasing version we’ve been taught. Not the “be nice” conditioning that asks us to diminish ourselves. But kindness as a radical act of embodied healing—the living expression of everything you’ve discovered about yourself through curiosity, optimism, awareness, courage, hope, and healing.
This is kindness as medicine. Kindness as revolution. Kindness as the bridge between your inner transformation and the healing our world desperately needs. continue reading
Speak Your Truth & Ignite Your Courage
“Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen.”
~~ Brené Brown
Speaking Your Heart in a World That Prefers Silence
Greetings to all my precious people!!
We’ve traveled together through CURIOSITY (the radical act of not knowing), OPTIMISM (hope as a practice), and AWARENESS (seeing what’s actually true). Now we arrive at the pivotal moment in The C.O.A.C.H. Method: COURAGE.
This is where insight becomes action. Where awareness meets the world. Where your authentic truth gets to have a voice.
This is where transformation moves from internal to embodied. continue reading
How to be Yourself and Why it Matters
“Our sense of ourselves is

The Art of Seeing What’s Actually True
Greetings to all my precious people!!
We’ve journeyed through CURIOSITY (the radical act of not knowing) and OPTIMISM (hope as a scientifically-backed practice). Today, we arrive at the heart of The C.O.A.C.H. Method: AWARENESS.
This isn’t the awareness that judges or analyzes. This is the authentic awareness that simply sees what is—without the stories, without the should-be’s, without the need to immediately change or fix anything.
This is the awareness that sets you free. continue reading
How to Cultivate Optimism
“The only journey is the one within.”
— Rainer Maria Rilke
Greetings to all my precious people!!
In 1997, fresh from a Stephen Covey workshop on personal mission statements, I created an acronym to guide how I wanted to show up in the world: C.O.A.C.H. Back then, it stood for Cultivating Optimism, Awareness, Creativity, and Hope—a personal compass for living with intention.
I had no idea that a simple acronym would evolve into something far more profound. continue reading
Curiosity: The Art of Sacred Wonder
Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart
and try to love the questions themselves…
~~ Rainer Maria Rilke
Greetings to all my precious people!!
Jupiter, the planet known as the “Great Benefic,” is widely regarded as a planet of expansion, abundance, and wisdom. When it returns to Cancer, the Water Sign, on June 9, and stays until June 2026, it reminds us of its “benefic” offerings: a path toward spiritual growth, enlightenment, and a supported quest for knowledge. The last time Jupiter graced Cancer was between June 2013—July 2014, so let us take a moment to reflect upon what happened during that time in our lives. There will be a nugget of inspiration, insight, and possibility waiting to be acknowledged. continue reading
