In yesterday’s post, I shared a poster titled “From Powerblind to Running … More If trauma narrows our vision, does ambition widen it?

From Powerblind to Running Free (poster)

Richard Grannon, a fellow youtuber who helps people heal from CPTSD/CPTSR, used the word “powerblind” the other day to describe people whose unprocessed trauma keeps them stuck in their old story, preventing them from moving forward. The metaphor struck me as RIGHT ON, and I ran with it. Whenever I think of Joy-Based Living, I … More From Powerblind to Running Free (poster)

Connecting with Invisibles (and a bad hair day)

A few months ago, I purchased a web domain called InvisiblesAnonymous. After posting this video and re-listening to it… I am wondering about possibilities for the domain… what could it be? how could it best serve invisibles? Hmmm… Creating, contributing and loving my life. Wishing you the bestest of the mostest, Happy D!

What is the oxygen that heals emotional trauma?

Some days just call you to chillax and enjoy!

This week has been full to the brim and I am delighted by so many experiences that I can’t count them all.

I highly recommend that if you choose to listen to this video, you create a space where you can truly be present. In your body. Not distracted. It’s not a light-listen. I attempted to condense very deep information while integrating some of my own story. You deserve to feel AMAZING. Your freedom. Your joy. Is … More Can co-dependency be cured?

Are you sending out mixed vibrations? Learn how codependency kills manifestations.

And learn what you can do about it, O YEAH! I used to teach a 5-week course on manifestation called Creation Mastermind. “It works!” were the most repeated words from the majority of my students. I still get calls about teaching it again. YES. It DOES work. I may go back to teaching this course … More Are you sending out mixed vibrations? Learn how codependency kills manifestations.

Rat-Proof Your Life (Coming Out of Hiding – Notes on a Wood Board)

I write. A lot. I started journaling when I was 15 and never stopped. One of my greatest fears (which showed up in a dream just prior to a 10-day silent meditation retreat) is NOT being able to write. In the dream, I wrote with pencil on the bottom of my foot. (No, it didn’t … More Rat-Proof Your Life (Coming Out of Hiding – Notes on a Wood Board)

The ONLY reason narcissistic abuse is a problem is because it’s a denial of who we truly … More Flying Free – Let’s talk about Spirituality – Especially after Narcissistic Abuse
