Being Fully Me

Taking a slight detour from discussing the themes of my book "Sacred Fire: Memoir of A Marriage" I draw the curtain back on my writing process in this episode. Some of the questions I address include: Do I write everyday? What time do I write? Have I had to deal with writer's block? Are there writing rituals I engage in before a writing session?

Sacred Fire: Memoir of A Marriage

This episode focuses on a spiritual practice that has become a guiding light in my marriage. As cliched as it is now seen, gratitude is a sacred and enduring practice in my life and nowhere does it rescue me more than in my relationships.

What does it mean to love yourself? We hear the words "self-love" all the time. What does that look like? How do we know to do that? In this episode I unpack the four pillars that are necessary to love oneself. I also share a simple first step in loving yourself. It's so simple you can begin right now.

In this episode, I address the challenges that can surface in a long-term relationship when a couple grow in different directions. If there is enough love and respect in the marriage, but there are differences in how each partner views life, how do you stay committed and find mutuality?
