When we take a close look at our own life patterns – it’s a real eye-opener! ~ What an awareness – to follow the dots and very clearly see HOW we arrived at where we are now. ~ The key is understanding the WHY – and how it fits into our larger life purpose.
We all have a life purpose legacy? ~ What’s yours?

As a Life Purpose Intuitive, it’s my intention to help spiritually-minded individuals connect the dots of their life story in a way that makes sense, in a way that feels right. It’s my intention to help them “Connect with their Divine Purpose. Step into their Life Story. Create their Legacy.”
I’m a lover of story. I genuinely love hearing people tell their life stories. Through their words, through their laughter, through their tears – I hear threads of meaning, threads of purpose. And I have a divine gift for weaving these threads together in a way that unveils a deeper meaning.
It’s this meaning that brings the “ah-ha” moments, the deep understanding, the desired clarity that leads to divinely-inspired actions. It’s this meaning that paves the way to choosing an authentic path of work. It’s this meaning that helps us make sense of the relationships in our lives. It’s this meaning that sparks the richness of living a life on purpose.
Working with the moon phases, astrological wisdom, journaling techniques and visual mapping strategies, I gently guide spiritually-minded individuals on an exploration of their “life story” and what experiences have led them to a particular moment in time. We follow the path of their story as we weave together the threads of their divine purpose, both personally and professionally.
What’s always interesting – is how surprised people are to see how these threads have always been present in their lives – and how they are very much a part of their legacies.
As a Life Purpose Intuitive, I share my divine gifts with people all over the world who are searching for deeper meaning in life, both personally and professionally. We explore the concept of life purpose legacy through the lens of spiritual depression (spiritual disconnect from meaning and purpose) and how “off-track” and unhappy and unfulfilled that can make us. We look at the “aftermath” – the ripple that’s created – from a person who is living “off purpose.”
Then we embark on a magical process of reconnection on a spiritual level – in a way that honors the authenticity of the individual. We connect to the power of an “authentically-inspired” ripple – and begin to experience the transformation that takes places when a person is living “on purpose.” Not only does the individual come alive, everything he or she touches comes alive.
It’s creates a ripple effect that goes on and on and on…… leading into a legacy.
It’s not about “changing” the life story. It’s about understanding the gifts of one’s life story (one’s life journey) in a way that uncovers their true divine purpose.
I don’t believe in regrets. I believe in understanding the WHY behind life’s “pivotal moments” – then weaving them together to identify one’s life purpose so that an AUTHENTIC legacy can be fulfilled.
I host a bi-weekly radio show, Life Purpose Legacy that addresses the many different aspects of divine purpose, legacy, life story, spiritual depression, and spiritual surrender. All of my shows are centered around a particular theme of life purpose legacy, with guest experts who help me illustrate various concepts.
Through a variety of ways – my radio show, my blog, my social networks, my newsletter, my private and group coaching programs, and my personalized retreats – I create a unique spiritual community, based on the phases of the moon, that provides the sacred space needed for people who are ready to embrace and honor the gifts of their life story as they fully connect with their divine purpose and begin to create their living legacies.
We all have a life purpose legacy. What’s yours?
Join me – and let’s find out!

Imagine for a moment a pebble thrown into a pond. It creates a ripple that goes on and on and on. I believe that mothers are a significant part of the ripple effect – that will transform the world into a more loving, more nurturing place.
When a mother is living life with complete authenticity, she’s subconsciously giving permission for her kids to do the same. She’s truly at her best – creating powerful change for herself, her family, her community – and for the world at large. It’s all part of “the ripple.”
It’s my belief that “a happy mother makes the best mother” – and our kids really do want to see their moms happy!
But what if something goes awry – and “the ripple” stems from a place of frustration, confusion, disconnect or unhappiness?
My transformational work with mothers came out of my own experience of connecting with the moon during a really dark period in my life. Shortly after the birth of my first child, and after making some fairly significant life changes at the same time, I fell into depression – a place that felt so foreign to me, a place where I felt like I had fallen into a black hole with no way out. It was during this time, a period that spanned over two years, that I had disconnected from everything that made me happy. Because my son suffered from chronic illnesses related to serious colds and severe ear infections, I made a very difficult choice to give up a successful career in order to care for my son full-time. I hadn’t realized until this experience how much of my identity was tied into my career. Without it, I felt very lost and very unhappy.
It was during this time that I fell back on a great passion of mine – journal writing. And as a mom of a baby who did not have a normal sleep schedule, I found myself exhausted and emotional much of the time. So night after night, after I’d get my son settled and after my husband went to bed, I’d grab my journal and retreat to my favorite chair – beside a big bay window where I caught a glimpse of the moon. It was the moon that taught me the meaning of transition. I’d watch this beautiful lunar goddess, night after night, move in and out of her various phases. And before long, I began to connect her phases with my own emotional tides.
I noticed that the moon always began in darkness and gradually, she’d move into full light – and cycle back around again. And I noticed the contrast between dark and light – the darkness of the night sky against the beautiful full moon light. I started connecting to this – as if I was being divinely guided through my own transitions of dark and light. I began to notice the ebbs and flows of my emotions. There were good days and bad days.
So when I came to the point of writing my book, Journaling by the Moonlight: A Mother’s Path to Self-Discovery, I wanted mothers to realize that every human transition begins in darkness and gradually moves into light, where we get a glimpse of what is possible. And then we retreat, to ponder the many ways we can manifest these possibilities into reality. This requires deep work, where we step into our own truth and into our own power – and where we can emerge in the most authentic way possible. This is what I call the Blue Moon phase – when we finally realize that we are here on this Earth to be WHO we are, to put our personal thumbprint on the world in the most truthful, most authentic, most unique way possible. Each one of us are individuals being divinely guided on our own purposeful path.
Because moms are natural role models, our kids are observing all the time. There’s a lot of truth in the saying, “Monkey see, monkey do.” In other words, when a mom is modeling the value of following her heart, her kids get it – much more than they would if she was just saying it. Kids feel energy. They know when a person is happy and when they’re not. So why not be happy – and let the ripple flow?
Wouldn’t the world be a much better place if we were all following our hearts? If we could truly live life with passion and purpose, everything would have a richer and deeper meaning. It would create a ripple of positive and loving energy that could literally heal the world.
Each and every one of us has the power to create great change in the world. And this change has the most impact when we begin with ourselves – looking in the mirror and honoring the person who is staring back.
WHO is this person? Do you really know her at her core? If you were to remove every label that she wears – mother, wife, partner, community leader, business owner, loyal friend, etc. – who is she?
Imagine for a moment – each of these labels being a blanket. Slowly remove each blanket, acknowledging the label it represents, and set it aside. Continue doing this until you have no more labels except – SELF.
Who is SELF? Take a moment to describe SELF from the inside out. How do you feel when you’re not bombarded by what the world thinks you should be? What are your passions? What are your dreams? What makes you come alive? How does this person – from the inside out – want to show up in the world?
These are great questions to ponder in your journal, allowing yourself to answer them – truthfully and completely.
When we start chipping away at the exterior labels, what do we look like on the inside? What is our “diamond in the rough?”
Once we discover this, we’ve connected with our authentic self. And it’s from this place where purposeful, powerful and magical ripples are created.
What kind of ripple are you sending out?

One of the most powerful films I’ve ever seen is Freedom Writers. It continues to be one of my favorites.
It shows the power of journal writing – and telling one’s story through a voice that is unique to the storyteller.
For a taste of what the film is about, visit this link and watch the trailer: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0463998/
So much could change in our lives and in our world, if we just stepped into the power of our life story – learning its lessons, receiving its gifts and bettering ourselves in the process.
This is what I teach in all my coaching programs. I create the space for spiritually-minded women to fully step into their life story – allowing it to guide them toward the answers they so desperately seek.
The truth lies in the power of YOUR life story.
There are many, many gifts wrapped up in one’s life story. By connecting all the dots, life purpose is clearly revealed – paving the way toward a deeper understanding, a deeper appreciation of one’s life. And it’s there – in that understanding, in that appreciation – where a life purpose legacy is waiting to be born.
If you’re feeling called to better understand the gifts of your own life story and how it all links to a larger life purpose, join me for an intimate self-exploration experience. For more details, click on the New Moon Discovery tab above and let’s begin connecting a few purposeful dots for you!
Here’s to exploring the amazing gifts of YOUR life story!

Are you feeling stuck? Or perhaps you’re contemplating a new creative project or a new creative direction?
During times of deliberation or when you’re facing a creative block, journal writing can help. It can be a powerful way to connect with your authentic self and your core beliefs. It can also help you see the many options that will lead you to a bigger vision.
Journal writing is a form of therapeutic writing. It’s the process of chronicling those many thoughts that are swirling around in your head – with no worries of being censored.
From our poetry to our music to our storytelling, writing what we see, think and feel has always had therapeutic value. Our entire history as humans comes from thousands of years of artists, writers and cave dwellers taking the time to record their perceptions of life at the time.
Through your journal, you can process your thoughts and hear the advice and encouragement of your wisest, most loving self. Writing slows down your thoughts and allows you to think more clearly and to process with more clarity. It can also help you focus your mind with laser-like accuracy, enabling you to clearly hear the voice of your soul.
A popular journal for creative people is an “ideas journal” – a place where you can record all the brilliant ideas that come into your head. It’s a place for recording and examining your thoughts, feelings and desires that are related to a particular idea. And by journaling about them, you can explore any doubts, fears and confusion. Getting it all out on paper will help you gain insights, clarity and understanding.
Another popular journal for creative people is a “project journal.” Once you’ve made the decision to embark on a creative project or a creative path, you can chronicle your journey by documenting all the many thoughts and feelings that pop up along the way. It’s a great way to help you sort out any frustrations and keep you on track.
So if you’re stalling, pull out your journal and dump out the mental clutter. This simple process will help you pave the way toward clarity.
