(published Dec 6th through my newsletter) It is a dark desert night and it’s hard to know which story to tell you, as so much has happened over the last couple weeks.

Ariel Meets Animal Guides in Real Life and Meditation
(published Nov 15th through my newsletter) Yesterday I went to a medicine wheel ceremony intended to introduce me to an animal guide that held insight into the next steps on my path.

Joshua Tree Love and Shoveling Manure
(published Nov 8th through my newsletter) It has been over a month since I moved into the Scamp camper and it’s become strangely natural to live like this. I’ve been in the same spot, on this animal sanctuary, for over two weeks and I’m well settled in.

Crashing (Emotionally) in Los Angeles
(published Oct 18th through my newsletter) I gotta say, this new chapter living in the Scamp camper has been remarkably dazzling so far. But last Monday I seriously crashed.

Fasting While Sleeping Under Stars and Spiders
(Posted through my newsletter on Sep 27th) Have you ever done a fast? Last weekend I did three days fasting - only drinking water. There’s something quite powerful in it.

The Last (Silent) Hurrah Before Hitting the Road

Top Lesson Learned Working From the Beach
Last week, I was on vacation on the Outer Banks of North Carolina with my family. We were on a slip of land called Hatteras Island, staying in a grand house on stilts.

How Riding My Rocket Ended a Lame-Ass Relationship with a Guy
A few years ago I was caught in a really lame relationship with a man. He was someone I had been involved with in the past and I was working my ass off to patch up the gaping holes in our connection and make it work. But his interest in seeing me was spotty at … Continue reading How Riding My Rocket Ended a Lame-Ass Relationship with a Guy
The Thought Error That Could Cost You Thousands
This week we are examining what I call “value-based spending” in my Wealth Realization Course. We are studying how often we give value to things just because we are told they are valuable, even though we might not authentically value them. This is a thought error. This thought error could cost you thousands and thousands of … Continue reading The Thought Error That Could Cost You Thousands
