Courage and love are like chocolate and peanut butter
A friend of mine recently said, “Your intuition first tickles you with a feather, if you don’t listen it hits you with a stick, if you still don’t listen, it hits you with a brick.”

Living a kick-ass life could mean something different for everyone. My version very well may not be your version, but if I had to, I could narrow it down to three important things that I think everyone should have to have their own kick-ass life: Authenticity. This...

Your Life is Meant to Kick Ass
At the root of that is loving yourself unconditionally. I work with women who have a good life but want something more. And within it is you. I believe that in order to ultimately live our best life, a woman needs to have self love, self acceptance, self esteem and...

I did it because I was scared
In my last couple of posts I’ve mentioned that I’m training for a sprint triathlon. I’m doing it because as a runner, this will be a challenge and the fact that I always thought it was ballsy to say the least to swim in open water. Growing up in southern California,...

Letter to my former self
I'm a big fan of writing letters to myself. Last year I wrote a letter to my body, which was a major healing marker for me. I also wrote a letter to my skinny jeans, which I finally got rid of. And about a month ago I wrote a letter to my former self. It's a letter to...
read moreHello, recovery. Nice to meet you.
Triathlon training. Wow. It's something I never thought I would do. It's something I never thought I could do. As I write this, I'm in week 5 of training, with about 8 more to go. I'm not a strong swimmer, so that is a challenge. I also have a fear of open water...

Old Memories
So, I'm training for a triathlon. A sprint distance, nothing crazy. Since I've been recovered from disordered eating and exercise, I've kept my love of running, but one thing has changed; I only run outside. I don't think this was a completely conscious choice, but...

Life. Changing. Experience.
On Twitter yesterday I was tweeting innocently away and stumbled across a blog post. I read it, smiled, read a particular line, kept reading and heard the sound of breaks screeching in my mind. I backtracked. This line practically knocked me over: "I encourage you not...

What's Happening?!
Hooray!!! So many things are happening on my end, so I thought I would update my 2 readers (mom and dad). I've been writing this blog for about almost 2 years now. I had no idea where it was going back then, I just knew I loved to write, needed an outlet for all the...

Choices, choices
Sitting in my therapists office many years ago (don't you just love stories that start with that line?) I remember telling her, "I'll bet you have a really great marriage and life in general because you're so smart about all this". And she laughed and informed me that...

The Prize
"All my life I've been searching for something Something never comes never leads to nothing Nothing satisfies but I'm getting close Closer to the prize at the end of the rope" -Foo Fighters I've been thinking about that a lot lately. The prize at the end of the rope...

Save New Moon Girls!
7th grade. What does that evoke in you? For me, 7th grade was puberty, braces, new hips, boy crazy, new to leg shaving and wearing make-up. My mom let me subscribe to Teen magazine and I remember a particular issue where the model on the cover had a super-cool...
read moreEight Windows
Inspired again by my dear friend Karen Pery, she has invited her readers to think about their lives. If given the opportunity to have glimpses of your life flash before your eyes, what would you see? She describes 8 windows, from the outside looking into your soul. I...
read moreJust things
I've been blogging a lot lately. Well, at least a lot for me. I remember when I got rejected from blogher.com because I didn't post frequently enough. I lurked through other blogs on their site and saw many that hadn't been updated for months on end, or frequent...

Ratting myself out
Forgive me, blogosphere, for I have sinned. The last few weeks I've been ranting about taking steps back to re-evaluate ourselves and what we're doing. I wrote about just "being" instead of "doing" all the time, and before that I wrote about perfectionism and the...
