(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. It was my intention to get from Vermont (leaving on Sep 28th), to pick up the Scamp camper in Minnesota Oct 1, test it out there for a … Continue reading Crashing (Emotionally) in Los Angeles
Talking Mindfulness with 3 Old Cowboys
(published Oct 11th through my newsletter) For a week and a half, I've been on the road now, and my old life feels very far away. It is presently blue dawn over a small lake in Elk City, Oklahoma.

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. After a day or two, it drops you into the space before craving. This is a resonant spot. It rings out like a tuning fork and … Continue reading Fasting While Sleeping Under Stars and Spiders

How Riding My Rocket Ended a Lame-Ass Relationship with a Guy

The Ultimate Act of Self Betrayal
So many women I know choose to live in the dark. They do not want to know the facts--the truth of what’s going on in certain parts of their life. They don’t want to have the conversation with their new lover about if he/she/they are seeking the same things from romantic partnership. They don’t want … Continue reading The Ultimate Act of Self Betrayal
Stop Chirping About Why You Can’t: This is a Story of How You Can
When I stepped outside to sip my coffee this morning, a plump fluffy baby bird was there quivering on the deck.
