Artemis Rising: Why Sovereign Women Make Men Stronger
As I learned about this new kind of woman, what some refer to as the Sigma Female, it was like reading my astrology birth chart, or my numerology profile, or the book on introversion which helped me understand the depth with which I experience my experience of being human.

I'm Back and As Surprised As You Are
I honestly never felt anxiety until I left my hometown of Milwaukee in 2020 at the age of 55. Making the decision to leave was hard enough, but COVID-19 made me question my decision. If not for my young adult children kicking me out of the nest, I might not have gone, which means I would not have "circled back," as an entirely new version of myself ready to get back to work in my hometown. My second coming of age, mid-life sexual awakening, and the most ironic transformative

Click here to listen to the guided meditation. Click here for the YouTube version. My former husband and I tried to save our marriage in our own way. When was the beginning of the end? After twenty years, the role of alcohol couldn’t be ignored anymore. He said he was “working on” his drinking, but that turned out to be a lie.

Freaking Hermes! How Your Unconscious Tortures You into Action
Click here to listen on Dose of Depth podcast. “Freaking Hermes!” This is how one of my clients started a recent session. I laughed and told him this was a very good thing. He didn’t like that answer, but by the end of the session he was ready to have a difficult and honest conversation with his wife. There was more urgency about completing this task since we had explored a dream during our last session. The dream: My father collapsed onto the floor. "Go get the defibril

The Intersection of Arousal, Shame, and the Fear of Trans People
Click here to listen on Dose of Depth podcast. Over the past few years we have gotten a chance to learn about the psychological concept of projection. In fact, the term projection is no longer adequate to capture the climax of intolerance that has been unleashed from the collective shadow. We cannot get away from projection. We all do it. It's how we relate and become aware of ourselves. The problem is a lack of consciousness of this fact. The moment you think you're not proj

The Hidden Impact: How Does Patriarchy Harm Men Too?
The overarching task right now is the reconciliation of the oldest wound of humanity, which is patriarchy.
