Where Am I Locating Power – Inside or Outside of Me?
Locating power outside of myself leads to me trying to create safety for myself by controlling the people and events around me. Conversely, locating power within myself liberates me to change my internal experience regardless of my outer relationships or circumstances — and that makes a difference to how satisfied and effective I can be both personally and in my efforts to make a difference in the world around me.
We All Need a Village; Here’s How to Build One
In this post I share my definition of a village, why we all need one (whether or not we’re raising children), and the paradox you need to grasp that may enable you to start building your own village even when doing so seems impossible.
On Power – a Choice Between Stories
What if we lived in a fundamentally intelligent and playful universe in which we could choose to participate, rather than just going along for the ride?
Do You Feel Like Rebelling Against These Things Too?

There is a new story available to us that prompts cooperative and life affirming behaviors rather than competitive and exploitative ones. Indigenous peoples and eastern spirituality have been indicating it, and the newest sciences are finally now “discovering” it. It’s a story that would put us on an entirely different trajectory.
Change… and Hope
Sometimes change asks more of us than we have to give, and we break. Sometimes we recover, but whether we recover or not, there is no going back to what we were before the change. We’re transformed us, forever, into something different than we were before. Here’s why I feel that this degree of change is upon us collectively now, and why I feel hopeful even in the midst of all that’s happening around the world.
Get Off the Bus
The “bus” I’m talking about is entire populations of people all gabbling without listening to one another and without thinking clearly. The bus is hurtling toward a cliff, with no-one in the driver’s seat. The opinions, the conflict, the angst, are all fueling the bus. Here’s how to understand what’s going on, and how to disengage from the insanity.
