This event is limited to 12 guests who are interested in engaging in conversations with me about "Caring About You Without Losing Me" - my most recent language for my work. The material we will be talking about offers guidance for partners, parents, caregivers, and friends. That about covers us all!


Complete event information can be found in these beautiful flyers created by Downtown Books in Lexington, VA.


I hope you may be able to join me at Downtown Books, Lexington, VA on Wednesday, February 8th, 7-8:30pm. Please let Paige Williams, the store owner, know you will be coming. We'll save a seat for you.


 



What might happen if we listened better to each other? Just listened and let the person who is speaking know we hear them?

The day has come! Earlier in the Spring I did an interview for The Love Fix Podcast with Sherry Gaba and Carla Romo. The interview was released today! What a great time we had talking together! Sherry and Carla really know their stuff and are super interested in codependency.


Here are the links to our show. There are plenty of wonderful shows on The Love Fix Podcast for you to enjoy and learn from, too.

I hope you will take a listen and join us in our exploration of codependency recovery!




Recently I was speaking with someone about the importance of reminding our self of why we set a boundary, why we took a stand, why we made a particular decision - especially when we have carefully centered and thoughtfully made those decisions.


We loose track of the good work we are doing on our own behalf as our focus is drawn outside of our self. Remembering, reminding our self can anchor us when we are feeling pulled off our own moorings.

And then I thought about the word: re-mind and added the hyphenation to emphasize the work we are doing. We are re-minding our self. We are intentionally catching our thoughts which may be forgetting our own needs and feelings. We are re-setting self by re-minding self. We are anchoring back in self.

What helps you to re-mind your self?
