The Profound Privilege of Suffering

June 10, 2011 – 1:56 pm

Tweet Wow. I’m realizing in this moment that it has been almost two months since my last confession, er, post (raised Roman Catholic). By now many of you have figured out why I’ve been away: I’ve been growing two human beings in my belly. That’s right… after all that, we did it! Despite that fact […]

What Do You Do Anyway?

April 15, 2011 – 10:48 am

Tweet This month marks one year since the official launch of Restoring Power. Whoo hoo! For close to a decade before that, I was a business consultant & coach but after an opportunity to reevaluate my work, my life, my offer to the world, I went back to my roots and am now doing different […]

My Gorgeous Community

December 13, 2010 – 2:50 pm

Tweet Our Restoring Power Holiday Party was a smashing success! It was full of amazing, incredible people (seriously, everyone kept saying to me, “Such great people at your party!”, to which I’d say, “I know! I’ve been telling you! I’m blessed!”), holiday music, an abundance of food+wine, and good cheer. And how about that harpist, […]

Creating Your Outer Heart

June 15, 2010 – 12:53 pm

Tweet This blog is written by guest blogger, Tara Mohr, writer, personal growth teacher and coach. I appreciate the term self-care, I really do. I understand the need for some word in our language that means something along these lines. But that phrase, self-care, has always turned me off. It reminds me of college, where […]

I must be a masochist. Or, why I love my work.

June 10, 2010 – 1:57 pm

Tweet Let’s reflect, shall we? A while back I hosted my first Salon in over 6 years- the first Salon ever for Restoring Power. The topic was community and partnership. I opened, as I usually do, with about five to ten minutes of my recent and personal reflections on the topic then I put out […]
