I had such an amazing time visiting my very good friend Navi and attending the Toronto Film Festival with her!  It was so much fun to see so many movie premieres. Movies we saw – True History of the Kelly Gang, Lucy in the Sky, American Woman, Clemency, Marriage Story, Endings and Beginnings I feel…

How much time do you spend really being in the present?   Maybe you think you are present but how much time do you spend overthinking your earlier conversation?  Focusing on how another person feels about you?  Worrying about what will happen tomorrow?  Thinking about how you can get someone to like you or how you can change them…

What do you need to feel emotionally safe in a relationship and why is this important? In order to grow closer to another person, you need to be able to open your heart.  And in order to open your heart you need to feel safe.  Different people may need different things to feel safe.  For example, you…

What if the process IS the result?  What do I mean? When you are focused solely on getting to a certain place…such as telling yourself you’ll be happy when you reach it… “I will be happy when I get married or get into a relationship, you attach your happiness to a specific result or outcome. You…

Do you ever feel the answers you need will come from someone else?  Like you need to find out what others want, think, feel about whatever it is that is happening with you?
