As the holiday current begins to pick up, it’s easy to feel that familiar pull — the whirlwind of plans, expectations, and old patterns that can sweep us right out of ourselves if we’re not careful.
This season invites us to stay present to both worlds: the visible one, full of activity and motion, and the unseen one — the deeper pulse beneath it all, calling us toward stillness, reflection, and completion.
This weekend’s Halloween festivities align with All Souls’ Day — when the veils between visible and invisible worlds grow thin. I plan to light a candle and take a few quiet moments to honor those who’ve passed.
What might you do to heart hello to the other side? ⚱️ 🎆

Emotional waves are part of expansion. Sometimes they feel like old news and need some releasing.
When old patterns arise, it doesn’t mean you’re backsliding — it means your next level of freedom is knocking.
Two simple tools that help me move through the waves:
1️⃣ The Letting Go Technique — be with your feelings, breathe, allow.
2️⃣ Vagus Nerve Breath — 3 counts in, 7 out. Pull your belly button in at the end of the exhale. Calm in under 2 minutes.

Here's a 4 second water sounds-beauty pause. Our hike was in 4 inches of fresh snow, up to Lake Isabelle. Not quite what the forecast predicted, but wonderful.
It will warm up, we'll have the back and forth for a while before the full winter season hits up in the mountains, and below.
Ready for the fall, the coming winter? These jaunts helps me better prepare. Came home to higher temps and a warmer rain.
What's on your radar to complete this quarter? I'm working on systems updates, course work, sane scheduling, and some more fun/creative side projects to fit into that sane schedule, lol...
How about you? Feeling clear and focused? Or needing more preparation for this next season of life?

For local peeps - this Friday there's some community fun in Superior, with an art walk, and other festivities - plus a music scene where I'll play a few, and the fab Janis Kelly is playing in the featured artist slot. Charlie Berger and Glenda as well. Come say hi, and enjoy the weather!

A New Way to Apply Gratitude
I was doing an energy reading for a couple whose prior house wasn’t selling. At first, grounding was needed. Then the real message came through:
The heart of the house missed them. 💛
Their home had been such a container for growth, memories, and empowerment. So we paused to honor it. I invited my client to name everything they were grateful for, that their time in that home had given them—financial blessings, personal evolution, love, comfort.
Then we sent that wave of appreciation back through the energy field of the house itself. And set up a welcome for the next ones to enjoy it.
It struck me: how many of our own gratitude ops have we missed? '
This may be especially relevant if there's something that's not moving as hoped, or feels stuck.
At these post-equinox moments of stillness, it's a good time to bless both the road behind us and the one ahead.
🌊 What’s one forgotten gratitude you’d like to name today, for your career, your business, your life?

We just finished the Career Change Confidence challenge. The five days covered key areas: decluttering, stress mgmt., HSP awareness, limiting people pleasing, and the daily practices, both practical and magical - lifestyle and grounding, plus the divination side.
As we approach this new moon and solar eclipse (Sunday 1:54 pm Mtn), I was tempted to get all ... productive and start another challenge!
But when checking in more deeply, I realized I need to take time for the reset, and check in with the inner wisdom on what's next.
One thing is clear, there are a lot of surprises getting tossed around in the collective. That tells me less is more.
One day two of the challenge, we looked at what I call your Stress Palette - because it can be a creative canvas, when it's not overloaded. (That's in the Level Two section of the framework below).
I was ready to get ambitious with putting more on the palette, but the inner wisdom said Stop. Reset. Revisit the plan one more time. Take time for improving systems and schedule sanity. Sure, create new programs. For January.
In this powerful eclipse season, what is your intuition telling you about your next steps for this quarter?

Sometimes it can feel like our efforts aren’t producing the results we hoped for. The final product looks so different from the vision.
I want to remind you: your energy, your clarity, and the care you bring to your work are needed — even if the impact isn’t immediately visible.
Success isn’t only measured by money, likes, or external achievements. True alignment and fulfillment come from showing up, trusting your path, and honoring your inner guidance.
Your presence matters. The work you do, even quietly, makes a difference.
(Talking to myself too 💕🙌)
What's one way you might rest in the feeling your work matters... A lot. And acknowledge yourself in a small way?

Do you catch yourself saying “yes” when you really mean “no”? 🙋♀️
Or you're so busy you don't even know: yes, no, maybe...
People-pleasing is exhausting. It pulls you away from the life and the work you’re truly meant to do.
It’s also a distraction — and honestly, it’s not fair to others or to your own deeper truth.
In the 5-Day Career Confidence Challenge, we’ll explore boundary-setting as a kind, clear practice:
✔️ How to say “no” in ways that feel freeing (for you and for others)
✔️ Simple tools so you don’t have to twist yourself into knots ever again
👒 Ready to step out of people-pleasing and into empowered boundaries?
Join us Monday 9/8.
5 days of short actions in empowerment zones that change the game.
For good.

🌿 Sensitive and ambitious? It’s not a contradiction.
If you’re a Highly Sensitive Person, chances are you crave deeply meaningful work. But let’s be honest — risk-taking takes more courage, and the recovery time after can feel longer.
That’s why on Day 3 of the Career Change Confidence Challenge, I’ll guide you through how to:
✔️ Spot your unique HSP challenges during growth spurts
✔️ Pace yourself gently and bravely into courageous action
✔️ Honor your sensitivity as a strength — AND get real about how to navigate with it
It’s time to explore your own empowered balance of sensitivity + courage.
5 days of the Career Change Confidence Challenge. Small daily actions. We start 9/8.

“Oh life, it’s bigger,” sings R.E.M.
You attend to all the things, doing your best to stay aligned with your true priorities. Meanwhile, ten distractions clamor for attention. Without realizing it, you’re carrying far more than you think. No wonder the burden feels heavy.
Here’s the truth: courageous steps toward your next level of work require space — room to breathe, to reflect, to move with clarity.
The very first step is simply naming what you’re carrying.
That’s exactly what we’ll do together on Day 2 of the 5-Day Career Confidence Challenge.
It can feel hard at first to face the full weight of that list. Your stress palette, I call it in my Stress to Strength book. Your creative template.
But once you see your stress palette clearly, the insights come — and suddenly the path forward feels lighter, clearer, and more focused. It's easier to say no. (day 4😂 )

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.
Travel is just one way the soul evolves and activates meaningful experiences. Other life areas important to Soul Savvy Services are right livelihood. Money healing so that resources are supportive and shared. Trauma healing across generations. Honing your life to support sharing your gifts, and your day-to-day thriving. Being grounded as a spiritual being, even as you walk this human path. Having joyful contributions you make and old limits you transcend and heal, both for yourself and your family’s past and future generations. Lots of fun stuff! Lots to do. And plenty of time to be, to rest, create, and explore/deepen the truth of who you really are, and what you came here to learn.
Wishing you deep connection to your spirit, ancestors and your brilliant future, as we all create the Sage New World post covid. You can book a free consult above to talk more.
