One place where everything comes together
Reading Time: 4 minutes I could go on forever about how much I probably have already screwed up. The list just keeps getting longer every day. But I know that this circular logic about how I need more and am not doing enough, isn’t productive, or even helpful. The truth is, we all need more. The bar is too high and the refreshments are few and far between. Parenting is the best of times and the worst of times.

Reading Time: 3 minutes What’s true is pretty simple.
Does this thought work?
Does it get me the kind of results I want in my life?
Does this thought hold water for the long haul?
If it doesn’t, I have to admit to myself that thought is a lie. Lies don’t yield great results no matter how long I’m lying to myself.

Reading Time: 2 minutes Non-monogamous people who engage ethically and with good intentions tend to have better communication skills regarding sex and consent, and if you’d like to learn more about how people manage these interactions, I’d read “The Ethical Slut” 3rd edition by Janet Hardy and Dossie Easton, or More Than Two by Rickert and Veaux.

Reading Time: 5 minutes In my consulting work, I frequently help teams try to cultivate connection, understanding and shared goals. As part of the process, I set up exercises in which team members are given opportunities to self-disclose—on topics ranging from their preferred work styles to family background—and everyone chooses how much they are willing to share.

Reading Time: 3 minutes When we look at our feelings with no judgment, but with the knowledge that those undesirable feelings can be the source of very important information, our feelings then have the space (non-resistance) to flow, shift, change and evolve into desirable feelings.

Reading Time: 6 minutes Living in limbo is no way to live.
Don’t do it.
That’s the moral of the story.
It might not be easy but it’s remarkably simple. Just ask.
Not doing it makes things really, really complicated. Trust me. I know.
Reading Time: 2 minutes He never really left her. He just never came back.
It didn’t exactly end because it never really began.
It was the hardest breakup that never happened.
Reading Time: 3 minutes The riskiest thing you can do with your self-esteem is let someone else’s opinion of you matter. That is outsourcing your self-esteem, and even if you do it a little bit, over time, that can cost you a lot.
