If you are new to NLP – Neuro- Linguistic Programming, this is a quick introduction into recognizing distortions and learning to initiate what is known as a “break state”.

Why? Because your presence is needed and your voice matters.

While social media isn’t for everyone, if you find you are feeling stuck or paralyzed in what to share and how to use your voice, know you are not alone.

This has been one of the most common subjects over the last few months.

It’s great to take note of how you feel, but don’t let it take you away from your purpose. It’s time to shift our language in order to be heard more effectively and that first begins with you.

Drop NLP below if you would like to learn more and how it can help you reframe your narrative. Your work matters. You matter. You have messages to share.

This is for those who are re-evaluating their purpose, work, and ambitions. What fits and what doesn’t? What do you need to see before the next phase of empowered change happens?

Change, evolution, and self‑understanding are at the core of my company motto:

“If you can imagine it, you can become it.”

As an entrepreneur, I’ve learned that growth requires permission — permission to shift, to outgrow old roles, to listen inward, and to show up in ways that feel true. And with every chapter of my work, I’ve discovered something essential:

Your outward menu can change without compromising who you are. In fact, it often reveals more of you.

But here’s the part most people don’t talk about:

Upleveling your identity can feel uncomfortable — not because you’re doing something wrong, but because you’re expanding beyond who people thought you were.

When you evolve, people may not immediately understand your new direction.

They may still see the version of you they’re familiar with.
They may question the shift or wonder why you’re changing what “worked.”

And that’s okay.

-It doesn’t mean you’re abandoning your gifts.
-It doesn’t mean you’re being inauthentic.
-It doesn’t mean you’re “too much” or “not enough.”
It means you’re growing.

Identity expansion requires courage — the courage to be seen in a new light, the courage to let your work mature, and the courage to trust that your evolution is allowed.

“Your inner gifts don’t disappear when your entrepreneurial vision evolves.”

They don’t get diluted.
They don’t get lost.

They become sharper.
Clearer.
More refined.
More aligned with who you are now.

The truth is:
You’re not meant to stay in one version of yourself forever.
You’re meant to grow, to shift, to stretch, to rise.

And the people who are meant for you — the clients, the collaborators, the community — will recognize the deeper integrity in your evolution, not the surface-level change.

There is a masterpiece waiting to be put into creation.

Happy NYE xo

I invite you today to notice what’s stirring within you.
What are you creating?
What are you no longer willing to tolerate?

Courage is the changemaker.
Being true to yourself is the leader within.

Learning to stop, pause, and savor the subtle shifts—the quiet moments that surround you—is part of the work. Embrace them.

I woke this morning with the sun dancing across my bedroom and the birds chirping outside. I realized I hadn’t heard them in a while—yet they were always there.

I hadn’t noticed the way the sun plays with the shadows on my walls in a while—yet she has been there-trying to get my attention. Today I saw. Today I held the sounds, the warmth, the lightness of the morning and tucked these offerings gently into my mind and heart.

I woke feeling soft, held, and genuinely excited for what’s next, despite the troubles that have sat at our doorstep and the heaviness that anchored so much of this past year. In this moment — it has all lifted.

Even if fleeting, I recognize it. I see it.

This year lived up to its name—the year of shedding and transformation. A true year of the snake. It cleared, pushed, aligned, and hopefully revealed what matters most—to what is uniquely yours.

We so often try to fit into a mold we believe is “the right path,” squeezing ourselves into discomfort because we think discomfort is the sign of growth. Sometimes it is. But often, it’s your body telling you that path isn’t meant for you. There are others. There are always others. And there is courage and strength in choosing the one that feels like coming home. It doesn’t mean it’s easy—but it is yours.

So, on this final day of 2025, let’s honor the layers that have been shed. Let’s look for the light that dances around us. Let’s acknowledge the challenges and shadows that shaped us so powerfully—so that you can emerge stronger, taller, and more victorious than ever.

Happy New Year’s Eve to all. I look forward to writing the next chapters with you.

It is time! Wrapping is done! The house is alive with Christmas magic. I’ve barely left the house since Friday, from work to home, to children, to baking, to tending, to end of year wrap up. It’s been a busy and exciting time.

Tomorrow marks day 1 of festivities! We are with family, then off to celebrate Christmas Eve with more family, to sledding at Canmore, train rides in North Conway, sleigh rides in Sturbridge, apple pie making, chowder cook offs and most of all, time together. It will be jam packed with fun, love and hopefully staying healthy through it all! Ginger teas are brewed, elecampane tinctures are made, Fire cider shots each day. I’m off from now until January 5th. Let’s do this! Happy holidays everyone!

Gotta love set life! I never know where it will bring me. Yesterday was an adventure for sure…working in a hard hat, on a live construction site, doing wardrobe, not able to feel my fingers or toes. It was a cold one! But also an adventure, which makes life interesting 💗 🎥

Wintering is a sacred season—an invitation to slow down, reflect, and tend to the soul.

As the weather turns bitter cold and the days grow shorter, we’re often drawn indoors, seeking warmth not just for our bodies, but for our hearts and minds. It’s easy to get swept up in the rush—from errands to events, from bundled layers to busy schedules. But winter, in its quiet wisdom, asks us to pause.

I’ve always found comfort in the simple rituals of the season: simmer pots on the stove, spiced ciders in hand, breads rising in the oven, and the aromatic delights that fill the home with memory and meaning. These small acts of care become anchors—reminders that nourishment, beauty, and presence are always within reach.

As someone who feels the weight of the winter doldrums, I lean into my hygge more than ever during these months. Cozy comforts, candlelight, soft textures, and soulful music help me reconnect with the magic that lives beneath the surface of the season. The holidays can bring a whirlwind, but wintering reminds us to return to what’s real: intention, connection, and inner warmth.

To support this sacred slowing, I’ve prepared a few community workshops for December and January—designed to inspire you to gather, pull on your cozies, and set meaningful intentions for the months ahead. These are virtual vibrational workshops, so you can join from the comfort of your home, wrapped in your favorite blanket or sipping your favorite brew.

See below for dates, times, and options.

Purchase all three and receive a virtual gift card to my shop—a little extra magic to carry with you into the new year.

Let’s winter together. Let’s make this season one of purpose, presence, and soulful renewal.

I love being a sponsor for powerful female artists! Sent these mermaid oils off to Los Angeles last week to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of and my talented friend for her incredibly successful career as a stand up comedian.

Thank you to for inviting me to collab and for all the years of entertainment and laughter that has been brought to us by these incredible women. I know tonight will be a night to kick off the next chapter and decade of women supporting women and giving us all unspoken permission to laugh freely and in good company of others. Keep the laughter rolling! It’s medicine for the soul 🌈

Knock ‘em dead Val! We love you 💗

Tonight I led a powerful candle carving/magical, meditation session to set intentions for healing from the mother wound. What a wonderful and beautiful experience for my client. I am still processing the enormous amount of clarity and freedom this session brought.

Sometimes all we need is a touch of magic and trust in ourselves to see our heart and mind free.

This has been one intense full Ta**us moon - predicted to be one of the most illuminating and powerful of the year.

Are you feeling the old collapsing and the new trying to emerge? If you are having bouts of energy and then need to take a nap 20 minutes later, then your consciousness is feeling the releases and integrations. This one is pulling everything forward and leaving the past behind.

Headaches, thirst, dizziness, blurry vision, sudden emotional changes, these are just some of the symptoms. Rest when you can, hydrate, eat lightly...salt baths are wonderful, infused with rosemary, geranium and sage for energetic cleansing.

Mint infused water with lemon will help with stomach ease and magnesium for sleep balance, headaches and stress. As always, only take supplements and herbs if you know there will be no contraindications.

How are you feeling? Anything that you have noticed is different with this moon?

It’s time to get proactive with cleaning house-mentally and physically. This is a great time to let go and be guided.
