I remember the day the shame began. I was 15. A close girlfriend had come to my house, and we were in my bedroom. All around my bedroom, I had photos upon photos of friends, family and snapshots of myself. I loved these photos. I had gone to Michael’s Art Supply store and bought some […]
(Note: This post is a departure from my regularly scheduled programming regarding freeing your voice & public speaking. But I would be completely remiss if I didn’t write it. My hope is that, even if you don’t have a newborn or baby on the way, you will gift this blog post to a woman/man who […]
Two and a half months ago, on November 1st 2013, I gave birth to my son, Connor Forest, on the floor of our downstairs guest bathroom after 26 hours of the hardest work of my life. There is so much I could say about this event, which was hands-down the most transformative experience of my life […]
I’m so thrilled to be part of Kate Northrup’s Money Love Stories project as part of the launch of her new book, Money: A Love Story. Kate interviewed me about MY money love story and I have to say, it was pretty juicy and eye opening! What you don’t know is that after I left […]

You may have also recently seen her on Oprah’s Super Soul Sunday. This is a woman […]
Let me tell you a little story about a girl who ditched her right to vote, said screw you to the US and left the United States in a tantrum after the whole Bush/Gore election disaster in 2000. Yes, that was me. After that whole sketchy election process in 2000, I became totally disillusioned […]
Every two years or so, I feel like my life is burning to the ground. Everything I’ve created must be utterly, completely destroyed. I move, or end a significant relationship, close the doors on a business, or throw everything out of my closet. I relish this destruction. It’s the only way to create anew in […]
Oh, I’ve missed you. It’s been a wild last four months. I did my first ever internet marketing launch, and then ran a rockstar program where 30 women walked away with the talks of their dreams, and THEN…the San Francisco and NYC School for the Well Spoken Woman LIVE Events. Which were, truly, off the […]
