I write about what is holding us back from a better world and life for all. Topics like the illusion of separation, outdated social norms, world systems, and the human brain are my focus. My mission is to inspire an equal, respectful, and sustainable future for all life.
Understanding the Thought-to-Action Cycle for a Better Life and World
Do you wonder why your actions do not always match your original intention? It all has to do with something I call “The Thought-to-Action Cycle” which is a high-level overview of what goes on in our brain when we want to take action on an intention; a desire; a want…

We are entering what for many of us is the busiest social time of year. It can bring out the best and the worst in us. Why is this?...
Reality isn’t quite as it appears
The other day, I was sitting on the shore observing an early evening sky. As I was taking it all in I began to look for the horizon but it was difficult to see where the water ended and the sky began as both had a similarly beautiful and calming pastel blue colour. As I focused my sight more intently on the horizon, I experienced…
Everything Begins With Intention
Everything we be/have/do in our life begins with our intention for it to be in our life experience. It doesn’t matter if the intention is perceived as a positive or negative, it is an intention all the same. The problem is…
The Illusion of Imperfection
The messages to strive for perfection seem to be everywhere. Whether it’s striving for a perfect body, to be a perfect spouse, to have a perfect life, etc., the message that we are somehow imperfect abounds at every turn. It’s time for a MindShift Moment…
What Are You?
If I asked, “what you are?” what would you say? Would you say you are a wife/husband, a mother/father, an employee/employer? If those labels were removed from you, what would you say you are? Would you say you are…
What grass clippings can teach us about beliefs
I was sitting on our back porch the other day I observed an adult teaching a teenager how to cut the grass in their backyard. As I watched the lesson unfold, it provided a great example of how easily beliefs can be and are passed on from one person to another. While the adult was teaching the…

Do you believe you are unworthy?
If you do you are certainly not alone, but it doesn’t have to be that way for you or anyone. It’s time for a MindShift Moment.
The belief that you are unworthy is simply another illusion that you and many others have been conditioned to believe is true. No one is more worthy than another. We are…

How Many Ways Can You Cross A Room?

You Are Always Creating
I was watching a video the other day that talked about how young children are in a constant state of creativity. Whether it’s playing dress up, colouring, playing in the mud, or telling stories, little ones are always creating. The video then went on to say as we grow up we stop creating. Instead, we…
