I’m grateful my daughter wasn’t born on her due date. Because now that date can be a day for me to remember the anticipation and preparation of bringing a new life into the world. The world is pregnant with possibility. We are constantly rebirthing ourselves. And like labor (though quite different!), this process can take … Continue reading UnDo Date

Figure Out the Funny
Instead of berating yourself, figure out the funny. Find the humor. Not because it is funny, it’s likely not. But because it will give your brain something else to do other than berate yourself. If you struggle with negative self talk, like all habits, this one is hard to break. With habit change one is … Continue reading Figure Out the Funny

25th Anniversary of…
My bat mitzvah! My entrance into womanhood. I was searching for the words to capture how I so deeply connect with my inner 12-year-old self—that pure, innocent girl who had not yet explored the sexual sphere, which would end up wreaking havoc on her emotional life. How to say that? How to capture it? Am … Continue reading 25th Anniversary of…
Let Them Live
If we cannot make space for those whose lives look different from ours. If we cannot support the artists who bleed daily their emotions and know not how to survive but by producing the products of their soul. If we force the ones we love to fit into cookie cutter molds. But it won’t sustain … Continue reading Let Them Live

Happy 11-11-22
Not only is it 11-11. But 11+11= 22. The fact that this week is culminating on 11/11 is meaningful to me cuz this has been a week of self-discovery. Ironically it was through declining opportunities (both personal and professional) that I felt validated in who I am. Opportunities that a greener, less experienced version of … Continue reading Happy 11-11-22
Rebirthday Invitation
Mindfulness is an invitation to be grateful for one’s life, for the blessings which one has, and for the natural surroundings that surround us always. It is an antidote to jadedness. It is a vessel in which to hold one’s pain; a container for one’s joys. It is accessible always. Upcoming Renewal: My Bday, Jewish … Continue reading Rebirthday Invitation
Day Off
What does it mean to have a day off? Do you use it to get extra errands done and help clear out the rest of the week’s hecticness? But then you are not really off? That sounds on to me! Trying to find the balance between planning ahead and living in the present moment.
When Things Don’t Seem Right, Keep Going
It’s so hard to keep going when things feel awry. Much easier in the moment to curl up into a ball and hide. But the truth is, much like my 4 yo daughter’s experience with completing her puzzle this morning, sometimes the only way out of the confusion is to keep going. To try things … Continue reading When Things Don’t Seem Right, Keep Going
