By the river, winter pressing in.
Snow softening the edges of the world.

I am a lover of heat.
He knows how my body listens for warmth.
So there is a heated vest against my skin,
and at night, the deeper heat of him beside me in sleep.

Not urgency.
Not fixing.
Just warmth offered.
Just bodies learning how to stay open.

He helps me meet the weather—
outside,
and inside our emotional landscape.

This is intimacy as attunement.
Being felt.
Being sheltered.
Being met, exactly where I am.

Where are you letting yourself be warmed like this?

Feminism asks one simple, uncomfortable question:

Do you believe women even when doing so costs you something?

When the woman is the “wrong” religion.
When her nationality makes people uneasy.
When her suffering disrupts a preferred narrative.

Belief that disappears under pressure is not belief.

And feminism that excludes certain women was never about women at all. Women’s rights are the cause of our time—because freedom is for everyone.

The table is set.
Food prepared.
Family on the way.

It hasn’t always looked like this.
There were lean years, lonely holidays, long stretches of waiting.

And that’s what makes this moment sweet.
Not perfect. Not effortless.
Chosen. Tended. Earned by showing up again and again.

Tonight, I’m grateful in my bones.

Where are you noticing the sweetness that came after the hard?




24/12/2025

There are days that feel thin, like a veil.
Today feels like one of those days.

I look at my life and see miracles woven through it—
sobriety, motherhood, love, a calling that lets me walk alongside others.

None of it was simple.
All of it feels sacred.

And beyond my own life, I can still see light moving—
laws passed, hands extended, people choosing care.

I’m holding both the grief and the beauty.
I don’t think we’re meant to choose.

Where do you notice miracles moving in your life right now?

Holotropic breathwork didn’t fix me.
It found me.

It helped me reach places I couldn’t think my way into.
Old fear. Old stories. The residue of a past marriage that still lived in my body, long after it was over.
Things that had been roosting inside me like dark birds, shaping how I moved, how I loved, how I braced.

Through breath, those places softened.
Some of the fear loosened its grip.
Stories I once believed turned out not to be true anymore.

What emerged was self-awareness.
Self-knowledge.
The kind that changes how you show up.

This work has made me a better wife.
A better mother.
A better coach.
A better human.

DreamShadow is the community that holds this work with warmth, care, and deep humanity.
A little quirky. Loving. Spacious enough for all of us.

This work matters to me.
I believe it changes the world, one human at a time.

If you feel that too, I invite you to join us for breathwork.
And if you’re moved, support the work.

Grief doesn’t always wait for anniversaries or logic. Sometimes it just rises—soft, sudden, tidal—and asks to be witnessed.
When missing someone comes up, especially around the holidays, I try to meet it with tenderness instead of judgment. It doesn’t matter how long it’s been or whether the relationship was simple or complicated. What arrives is real.
Here are four ways I’ve learned to walk with it:
1. Acknowledge it.
Let the feeling be real. Let it be named.
2. Make space for it.
Feel what you feel without rushing to fix it. Grief isn’t a problem to solve.
3. Talk with them or about them.
Or both. There’s deep medicine in saying their name.
4. Honor them through action.
Do something in their name. Show up like they once showed up for you.
Be someone they would have loved to see you become.
Let that love shape how you move through the world.
Missing someone is a testament to the bond, not a failure to “move on.”
It’s the way love keeps breathing through us.
What rises in you when you let yourself remember who shaped you?

Loyalty isn’t about agreeing.
And it isn’t about staying quiet.

Loyalty is the deeper devotion:
seeing the person you love in their full humanity, trusting that they did the best they could with the tools they had. It’s honoring their agency instead of taking it. It’s truth told with kindness, not heat. It’s presence without judgment, support that doesn’t eclipse, and the humility to ask, What do you need from me right now?

Loyalty is the moment we say:
Okay. This happened. Where do we go from here?

Shoulder to shoulder.
Sometimes behind them.
Never in front.

It’s believing in their becoming—especially on the days they can’t see it themselves.

What does loyalty look like for you these days?

In this season, when humans have always longed for the light,
we tell stories of miracles.
Not by accident.

When days were shortest and the world felt most uncertain,
we lit candles,
we gathered,
we reached for the mystical.

Across traditions and centuries, the longing is the same
to touch what is larger than us,
to feel the divine move even when the world feels dark,
whether that darkness comes from the sky
or from the stories we hear each day.

We call it God, Shekhinah, Christ, the Beloved, the Goddess, the Mystery.
Different names. Same reaching.

How do you turn toward the light in a dark season?

Yule - December 21

The longest night.
Yule is the Winter Solstice
the rebirth of the sun, the sacred stillness, the candle in the dark.
This is a time to rest, to remember the light returns, and to hold hope close.
Yule blessings to you

Humans are amazing.

An Israeli research team has developed a way to accelerate carbon capture using dolomite and seawater, simple, natural materials, speeding up a process the Earth already knows how to do.
This is what it looks like when science partners with nature instead of trying to dominate it.

In a world that often feels heavy with what’s broken, I want to keep naming what’s being healed.
Humans can be brilliant. We can collaborate. We can repair.
We can choose creativity over despair and responsibility over paralysis.

This is the kind of future-making work that reminds me why I still believe in us.

I’m planning the holidays.
The kids are coming.
The table will be full. Maybe crowded.

There’s a feeling in my body that might once have been called anxiety.
Now I recognize it as excitement. Aliveness.
The quiet miracle of abundance arriving.

I didn’t grow up with this.
My childhood was small, quiet, mostly unmarked by gathering.
No big tables. No home-centered celebrations.
Belonging was something I looked for from the outside.

Later, in my first marriage, there was always that question hovering:
Will we be invited? Will we be included?
It trained something painful in me.
The feeling of waiting. Of hoping. Of standing just outside the door.

That feeling is gone now.
Not only because the people around me are generous and open and loving
but because I stopped standing outside myself.

This life didn’t arrive by accident.
It came when I chose to count myself in.
When I stopped asking permission to belong.
When I met love where it already was.

So yes, I’m grateful.
And yes, it’s a kind of miracle.
But it’s also a choice I keep making.

How might you count yourself in this season?

My old friends remember me best.

There are through-lines that don’t disappear, no matter where we go or who we become. Threads woven so early they become part of the warp and weft of us.

Stevie is one of those for me. Always has been.

And of course my three best girlfriends would give me this.

It’s the gesture, yes.
It’s being seen.
And it’s also the doll, which delights—
delights my girlish heart.
