Intending to Let Go of Expectation
Many words in English can be interpreted in many ways. A client I’ll call Jasmine had been working on her Instagram content for a while. Living nomadically as a chef, Instagram worked perfectly for her lifestyle. Her goal was to attract followers and engagement and then eventually monetize her work with brands to earn a…

The Fountainhead of My Inspiration
On the surface level of the storyline, it is a book about how an artist, an architect, chose to stay true to his art and his work, no matter how hard it could get and how many shortcuts were offered. On a deeper level, it was quite philosophical. The author, Ayn Rand, was considered a…

Turn Obstacles into Opportunities
Suppose disappointment without anger is the mark of an old soul, and not being disappointed is the mark of a really old soul. In that case, living your own life purpose and trusting your own life so thoroughly that every step on its path is valued more than where it is “supposed to take you”,…

Deep Dive with Me
Turning 55 is a miracle of sorts for me, if you understand when I was 17, I was so, so, so afraid of getting old (18-years-old would be too old for me back then.). And when I was 20, I thought by the time the new millennium came, with its Y-2k issue, that it would…

Journeys or Destinations
In my childhood, I dreamed that when I grew up, I would marry a train conductor, so I could, in my imagination, travel for free! I shared this dream with my sister and a close friend. The friend said she had a feeling, that in the future more people would be flying to travel. I…

Without Trying to Hypnotize You
Without trying to hypnotize you, I’d like you to stare into the graphic art for a minute or two. Maybe lots of circles, maybe a depth, maybe confusing, maybe fractured, maybe patterns, or even motion… It’s a natural thing when you look into such an image and begin to see movement. The brain doesn’t know…

There’s No Reason
How many times do you click on a video link and find your own name being sung into a beautifully made song? Well, it happened to me once. It was a surprise to find my name in a catchy, fun, and upbeat song, produced by bthemothion. The singer-songwriter Ian knows how to sum me up…

What Does Confidence Have to Do with Flavour?
Many people I come across understand that many of their issues—whether emotional, mental, behavioural, and perhaps even physical—can come down to a lack of self-confidence. Heather, my new client had just come to see me about her body-image and perceived difficulty in dating when I mentioned she may just lack a little confidence. “Yes, I…
