Hello love! Monthly I do a review and also create my next month’s dreams. This reflection exercise allows me to stay accountable, review goals, celebrate, and note what needs adjustment.

January 6 began like any other weekday. I dressed, took a 30-minute walk around the block with my pug Gizmo (he’s […]

I hope you, too, were inspired by this interview with Eric Maisel on the power of daily practice. He’s one of my favorite guests and I always come away with a new nugget (or three) from our chat. In the introduction to his new book, The Power of Daily Practice, he writes, “Daily practice is as […]
