Radiant Work coach & psychotherapist supporting sensitive, high-achieving women through career and life transitions. My work bridges that gap.

Grounded, nervous-system-informed guidance toward clarity, steadiness, and meaningful work. I help sensitive, high-achieving women navigate career and life transitions — especially when work no longer fits, burnout is present, or something deeper is calling. Many of the people I work with are capable, thoughtful, and successful on the outside, yet feel drained, stuck, or uncertain about their next chapter. They often wonder whether they need therapy, coaching, or something else entirely. I offer Radiant Work coaching — an integrative approach that blends intuitive healing, trauma-informed inner work, nervous-system regulation, and grounded career strategy. The focus isn’t forcing change, but restoring clarity, capacity, and trust so aligned next steps can emerge. My background as a licensed psychotherapist informs everything I do, bringing emotional safety, depth, and steadiness to the process. I also:
– support conscious entrepreneurs, healers, and creatives with sustainability, money health, and legacy
– train and supervise healthcare professionals in Motivational Interviewing and health-change counseling
– offer memorials and rituals as an ordained minister to mark meaningful life transitions

My approach is warm, spacious, and non-pushy — designed to help people move from stress to steadiness, and toward lives and livelihoods that feel truly aligned.

Today is the final day of the lunar cycle — the dark of the moon.

Sensitive people often feel this threshold. It used to surprise me when I felt it's impact. Now I relish its influence:

A natural slowing down.
A bit more inward pull.
Fatigue, or a quiet emotional undercurrent asking for attention.

This is not something to push through. It’s a moment to listen.

As this cycle closes, you might muse with these questions:

• What mattered to me this past month?
• What did I tend well?
• What feels incomplete… but still alive?
• Is there anything that wants a little more attention before this cycle closes?
• What feels most important as I move into the next one?

You don’t need to force clarity.

Often, stillness is the container that allows insight to arrive.

This is also a time to acknowledge yourself —
your effort, your heart, your quiet persistence.

Even the parts that didn’t fully come together carry wisdom forward. Small learnings that matter in your growth and awareness.

Let this be a softer day. A turning inward. A small honoring.

I'm still musing - that was one heck of a month. Feels like a good time to start anew and reset my basic foundations and morning practices.

If you’re feeling this shift, I’d be curious — what’s one thing you’re noticing as this cycle closes?

Have you ever watched yourself ignore yellow… even red flags?

Or had someone you care about do it — and felt that helpless frustration?

Here’s something important:

When we feel pushed, judged, or overpowered — even subtly — we tend to push back.

Even if part of us knows the other person is right.

That’s why simply giving more advice or more information doesn’t usually help.

One approach I deeply value is Motivational Interviewing, MI for short.

It’s a way of having conversations that support change without pressure or shaming.

It sounds simple:
• Reflect what you’re hearing without that push of fixing something
• Ask open questions
• Get curious about what matters most
• Ask permission before offering guidance

But the impact is profound.

Instead of being told what to do, you begin to hear yourself more clearly.

And clarity is powerful.

If you’re navigating a decision, a relationship dynamic, or a life shift and want support that strengthens your own inner authority — I’d be glad to talk.

And for organizations wanting to bring this communication approach into their teams, I offer training as well.

In this messy world, when in doubt, we can still practice gratitude. Here is an 8 second video that shows a very concrete respite from the storm and our drought.

In Colorado, it's a very welcome storm.

Would you like to take a few breaths and name one wonderful thing in your life right now?

Because... it's been a week.

It can be easy to go into the sadness and stress of world events.

Let's practice. Stand with Colorado in the joy of receiving water. And maybe even, take a bath later.

What gratitude zone came to mind during your one or two deep breaths?
I thought of my sister... I'm grateful for our relationship... even with its ups and downs.

We often call creative or meaningful pursuits “side hustles.”
But some work isn’t meant to scale or monetize.

Some activities exist to support aliveness, presence, and steadiness — especially during times of transition. They may never be lucrative, and they can still be essential.

In therapy and coaching, I often see how making room for what brings vitality helps people reconnect with clarity, resilience, and purpose.

Not everything that matters shows up on a spreadsheet — and it still counts. Sometimes, it counts a lot toward happiness and balance.

What helps you feel most alive these days?

In some Buddhist traditions, the weeks before the Lunar New Year are understood as a clearing season (the Dun) — a time when unfinished business, old emotional programs, and long-held responsibilities come up to be seen and released before a new cycle begins. Nothing's wrong when this happens. It’s part of how transition works. It's often timely.

If you’re noticing:

old family dynamics stirring

a familiar sense of responsibility or pressure returning

low energy, moodiness, or the need for more rest

a desire to simplify or pull inward

…you’re not alone, and you’re not behind.

This can be a powerful time to gently ask:
What am I still carrying that no longer belongs to me?
What is ready to be set down?

Alongside trauma-informed work, it’s common for old “savior” patterns to surface during clearing seasons like this. Many sensitive people discover an early imprint — a younger part that once felt responsible for holding things together, whether in a family system or later in the wider world.

In times like these, that can show up as the urge to save, fix, or carry more than is ours — especially when the world feels heavy.

Healers don’t need to feel overly responsible. We’re not here to carry the world — only to respond kindly, skillfully, and help update old survival-based programs when they arise.

As always, go gently. Clearing happens best with kindness, not force.

Below: it's been 6 years since my trek in Nepal. It was this same time of year. Here the children of the home we passed were cleaning all the pots and pans to prepare for the lunar new year. Beauty!

Happy year of the Fire Horse, whoosh!
Joyful clearing to you! ☯️💟

Without self-love, it’s hard to truly care for anyone else. And when events knock you off center, it's always a safe bet to return to self compassion.

Take a moment today: breathe into your chest, feel your body, and place a hand on your heart. Then repeat gently, the Metta meditation.

May I be at peace.
May my heart remain open.
May I awaken to my true nature.
May I be healed.
May I be a source of healing for all beings.

If your inner critic shows up — telling you you’re “bad at self-care” or like me last week, "I'll never figure this out" — thank it and return to the practice. Doing it imperfectly still counts.

Even 3 minutes can shift your nervous system and your day.
Aho, amin, amen 🙏

Please share your peace prayers; including any wisdow from Sunday's full moon.

Some years are about hustle.
Others are about healing.

For me, 2025 was about integration.

Integrating science and soul.
Evidence and intuition.
Regulation and expansion.

I just shared a short blog on the transformational tools for personal growth that genuinely shaped my thinking this year.

Some are evidence-based.
Some are unapologetically woo.
All of them helped me build more capacity, clarity, and trust in myself.

These are supports that made a real difference for me.

If you value both structure and soul, you might enjoy it.

And I'd love to hear any of your go to tools for last year. Especially those that upended old approaches, like some of these did for me.

Ba bye 2025!!

AI has no body.
No nervous system.
No lived experience.

That doesn’t make it bad — but it does make discernment essential.

AI can reflect language brilliantly.
It can organize, summarize, clarify.

It can't play you a song - wait, yes it can...

What it cannot do is replace:
• embodied knowing
• emotional intelligence
• relational attunement
• intuition shaped by lived experience

Sensitive women often feel this distinction instinctively — even if they don’t yet have words for it.

I explored this more deeply in a recent blog, especially for women who are thoughtful, capable, and not interested in outsourcing their inner authority.

I'll put the blog link in the comments if you'd like to take a gander.

Staying regulated - i.e., calm, in the rest and digest or healing mode - versus fight flight fawn freeze and other F words... it's critical now, with an inflamed world.

Yesterday I awoke slightly off kilter, and scooted to the woods for the walk.

The sight of the dark moon sliver always lifts my heart (see it in the pic?).

Moving my body for twenty minutes started the shift back to home base.

Meditation on the dirt path sealed the body calming. My mind regained the bigger perspective. I started to have ideas for the next helpful steps and projects.

Eat move sleep (thanks Tom Rath) and I add, meditate. That's tier one of regulation - eat, move, sleep, meditate.

Tier two: Your coping tools.
Tier three: the deeper work behind triggers or beliefs that are out of date.

When off kilter, under stress, triggered by global or personal events - it's easy to lose inner peace and sideline these regulation practices.

That doesn't help you or the world... It's a brave action to maintain your peace.

What are the practices that are easy to maintain when stress rises? Which are the ones that are harder to maintain for you?

Have you tried the ChapGPT year in review?

Here's a funny bit from my review:

If 2025 gave out awards, you'd get:
Most Likely to Rebrand Enlightenment as a Business Strategy
For turning every existential question into a newsletter draft, a client framework, or a surprisingly marketable spiritual revelation before breakfast.

I am up pretty early 😍
But never considered Enlightenment as a Business Strategy my wheelhouse. Certainly personal growth is absolutely relevant to business growth, and general right livelihood / fulfillment.

What's the archetype it names for you? or, the poem?

My archetype was the Navigator, shared by 23% of users.

The poem was:
You danced through the year, wise and bright,
Turning stress into strength, into light.
From Radiant Work’s flame,
To each grounded reclaim —
You keep making the heavy feel right.

Sensitives often find themselves over-focusing on the challenges or “growth edges” after an event.

That event might be a presentation, a work conversation, a job interview… or even a book club or family visit.

And then there’s this year, 2025. A surprising one for many, as it completes its turn on the wheel.

DM me for my Post-Event Summary fillable PDF. You’ll notice there are several repeated questions (they’re there for a reason).

Those questions invite you to acknowledge the effort and courage it took to do the thing - the stretches and risks, the deep work, the sharing. The parts that truly matter.

And the perspective this can add? Often it’s more balanced, more big-picture. A bit kinder. Ahhh…

The process also helps you gently name next steps. After all, growth doesn’t end for lifelong learners — and sensitives are often here to do those brave things and evolve deeply.

Happy New Year and blessings on your year ahead 😍
(I will get back to you 1/5... 2026!!)

IF WORK NO LONGER FITS

If you’ve been feeling quietly unsettled about your work or direction, you’re not alone.

Many sensitive, high-achieving women reach a point where what once worked no longer feels sustainable — even if nothing looks “wrong” from the outside. Loss of meaning, nervous system strain, burnout or a deep inner knowing can begin to surface.

This is often the beginning of a transition, not a failure.

I support women navigating these moments through Radiant Work coaching — a gentle, integrative process that blends intuitive healing, trauma-informed inner work, nervous system regulation, and practical career guidance.

My background as a psychotherapist brings emotional safety and depth to this work, especially for those who feel overwhelmed, unsure where to begin, or conflicted about whether they need therapy or coaching.

You don’t need to have everything figured out.
You don’t need to move fast.
You just need a space where clarity and wisdom can return.

If you’re questioning your work, your energy, or your next chapter, this may be the right moment to explore what’s calling — at a pace that honors your sensitivity.

You’re welcome to message me here on FB if you’d like to learn more or begin a quiet conversation.

The Trip to Egypt 2010, Nepal 2020

Soul Savvy is about stretching into our soul fired selves. That can mean going deeper than the surface, than the survival and making money level, to living and working from your soul. Embodying your true self. What did you really come here for? That changes as you grow and evolve - and as long as you DO keeping growing and evolving.

Some ways that I’ve stretched beyond my limts include sacred travel jaunts. In 2010, that was a trip to Egypt with a dear friend and a group of 40 some spiritually inclined seekers. I had to stretch beyond my money ceiling (perceived financial limits), and into offering my song and performance skills. I had to weather the mindset challenges months before leaving, when it sounded like my “old biddy ancestors” were asking, Who did I think I was? to travel like this. One highlight of many was performing my comedy on a river boat on the Nile.

In Nepal 2020, I trekked the Anapurna Circuit with a dear dear friend. We met many obstacles, not the least of which was the weather (winter!) and I learned more about working with expectations. In the end, it really wasn’t about “getting there” (to the 17,769’ pass) but being ... there. Together. Experiencing another culture. Flowing with daily rhythms. Asking for help when needed. Saying yes to new experiences. Realizing I can make it through challenges and learn something entirely unexpected. Exploring the alchemy of changing disappointment with the initial goals to kindness toward the perfect life lessons offered.

Trusting intuition is an ongoing skill. We returned from Nepal right before Covid19 threats became reality. In 2010, we returned 2 months before the Arab Spring revolution. And I had had the sense for that Egypt trip, we needed to go on that trip now, not later. With Nepal, the green lights kept blinking in surprising ways, and a plan on the back burner for a couple years suddenly became YES! Now is the time! yet again.
