Hello, October. If you’ve been here for a while, you know I love the first day of a new month. A blank page. A little threshold. An invitation to notice where we are and decide how we’d like to meet what’s next. But I’ve been thinking that our fresh starts don’t always have to begin by adding something. A new goal. A new habit. A new plan. Something else to accomplish. Sometimes a fresh start begins by putting something down. So before you decide what October needs from you, here are a few...

On Tuesday, I helped my parents load up the very last of their belongings from the place they had called home for 40 years. Forty years. A house. A garage. A shop. A small farm. Eighty acres. And all the stuff that accumulates when you have enough space to keep it. But of course, it wasn’t just stuff. It was memories. Decisions. Identities. Relationships. A way of life. Things that had been useful once. Things that hadn’t been useful for years. Things that were easy to release and things that...

Here in Montana, there are signs everywhere that the season is changing. The light is different. The mornings are cooler. Gardens are giving up the last of what they’ve been growing. Leaves are beginning their turn. And next week, we arrive at the autumn equinox, that beautiful threshold between seasons. I’ve been thinking about harvest. We often think of harvest as abundance. Gathering. Bounty. Seeing what has grown from everything we’ve tended. But harvest also requires discernment. What do...

For years, I’ve had this funny little image of my future self. I’m an old woman, sitting in a purple room, looking at astrological birth charts and having fascinating conversations with people about their lives. I love this image. Except recently, a question occurred to me: Why am I waiting to become the old woman? Why not inhabit that part of myself now? And perhaps that’s exactly what our birth charts can invite us to do. Not define ourselves. Not predict what will happen next. Not give us...

I’ve always thought September feels more like a new year than January. Maybe it’s all those years of school supplies and freshly sharpened pencils. Maybe it’s the changing light, cooler mornings and the first hints that another season is coming. Whatever it is, September carries an invitation to begin again. But this year, I’m not particularly interested in beginning by adding more. More information. More goals. More things to learn, fix or figure out. I’m interested in a different kind of...

Lately I've been thinking about how many years I spent trying to earn my seat at the table. Working harder. Getting it right. Proving I belonged there. As if belonging was something I had to achieve. Now I'm wondering if belonging was never the point. Maybe the point was arriving as myself. Not polished. Not performing. Not pretending to know. Just present. I've noticed the conversations that stay with me aren't the ones where someone had all the answers. They're the ones where someone told...

I've noticed something lately. The things that used to take me three days now take me three hours. The frustration. The disappointment. The story I tell myself about what happened. It's not that those feelings don't visit anymore. They do. They just don't move in. Somewhere along the way, I've become less interested in being right and more interested in being free. Less interested in proving my point. More interested in understanding what hurts. The strange thing is, I used to think growth...

Welcome to the midpoint of 2026! A practice that I am doing and inviting clients to do is to take some time to check in with yourself, your life, your values, priorities, practices, celebrations and challenges over the past 6 months. Midpoints help us know how far we have come and what may require more attention or what may be ready to release. The video below describes a practice that may serve :) The other topic that has been on my mind is the still point. In the video I describe my own...
