My good friend, Grace Harrington Murdoch, of the RainbowSoulCollective.com interviews me. We talk about how I got on my spiritual path, who my mentors were, why I’ve learned to embrace discomfort, and what I’m excited to be sharing next year when I teach me new course called ‘Embodying Your Power to Receive’. If you’re on …
It was a beautiful day here this past Sunday. We’ve had unseasonably warm temperatures. My wife Olga and I took the opportunity to get outside, enjoy the warmth of the sun, and be in nature. It was just what we needed after a few stressful days following the election. A short half an hour walk …
Last week, I got to babysit my adorable and precious grandson, Bo (short for Boden), while his mom and dad worked remotely. It was a true joy. Being with this little guy opened my heart so much. One observation I really appreciated while being with him was how in the moment he was. One moment …
Be fully you. Bring your fullness to every moment.Life is kind of this dance between allowing ourselves to show up fully expressed and finding safety in the familiar.What I’ve discovered is that the more I allow the full expression of me, which comes with increasingly more self-acceptance and compassion, the more alive and satisfied I …
When I think of harmony, I think of this koi pond. The well-being of the water, fish, microorganisms, and whatever else make up this eco-system depend on one another. All elements need to flow and be free in their unique ways. If the water becomes stagnant, this affects the fish. If a fish gets unhealthy …

One of the things I love about the Austin neighborhoods I’ve walked through is how uniquely expressive each home is. You might see a front yard that looks like a junkyard but you *know* that each item was placed intentionally, a yard that has been allowed to grow freely without any hint of upkeep, a …

My wife and I are visiting our son, daughter-in-law, and 4-month old grandson, Boden. We’re helping to babysit as our daughter-in-law transitions back to working full-time. It’s been a joy. And… it’s been challenging. Disrupted sleep. A schedule different than what I’m used to. Trying to coordinate all four of our work schedules while all …

I woke up this morning with a deep sense of satisfaction and appreciation. Being grateful to be alive is NOT something I’ve ever FULLY felt before. When I was pretty young, I remember crying in my bed, feeling tormented and wondering what my purpose was and why I was alive. I had my share of suicidal …

Oftentimes when I go see an action flick in the theater, and there’s a car chase of some kind, I leave the theater with that car-chase-speed-force in me. I catch myself driving faster than normal, changing in and out of lanes, just like the scenes I just experienced. It only happens for a moment before …
In January 2019, I had pulled away from coaching. I felt uninspired. I didn’t take on new clients. I couldn’t get myself to do anything in my business so I looked for other means for income. I wasn’t sure where to start. I hadn’t been employed in a regular job for at least 9 years …
