Soul Costumes
My husband called me and asked me out on a spontaneous lunch date yesterday – I happily accepted. I even got dressed up, did my hair, and put on a little makeup (I work from home, so this is not my daily routine anymore…sweats and flip flops are my daily wardrobe). We had a great […]
Reflections on my Shadow
I had a beautiful weekend spending time with family. The day following our return to DC, I had some down time while the boys were napping. As I mentioned in an earlier blog, I don’t watch much TV but something led me to pick up the remote in that moment. I ended up landing on Oprah’s […]
Redemption Song
Yesterday I read a powerful comeback story about an artist that is near and dear to my heart, D’Angelo. I was first introduced to his music back in the 90s and was mesmerized. It was more than his looks that had my teenage self sweating…his music used to take me to such a deep place. […]
Walking the Talk
I am SO excited! Last week, I finished my 7-week spiritual bootcamp which really deepened my spiritual practice and got me into a daily routine that is manageable for me (shout out to Jennifer Hadley – my joy-filled bootcamp coach).

Redefining Prayer
I hope everyone had a fabulous Mother’s Day! (Whether you raise your own or are part of the “village” that raises others’ children) I had a truly amazing day spending quality time with my husband, the boys, and my parents. I have SO much to be grateful for! One of the most memorable parts of my day came […]
Making Room for Inspiration
Excited doesn’t even come close to describing how I feel right now! I just got back from an incredible conference that has me more “fired up and ready to go” than I have been in a long time! (Side note: If you have not seen the “fired up and ready to go” video you have to watch […]
An Instrument in the Arms of God
I have loved music since as far back as I can remember. My dad had (and still has) the largest record collection I’ve ever seen in person. I grew up loving all types of music, but had a particular affinity for jazz. Every summer, we went to the Saratoga Jazz Festival in NY – a […]
