I ran away on Valentine's Day
On February 13th, 2016 I accepted a date. He wanted to take me Salsa dancing, and apparently he said he was a "trained professional".. so I thought, "heck, why not?!" Sounds like fun and hopefully it's a better date than the last one I had. I appreciated that he was the total gentleman that evening. He waited for me outside the salsa nightclub till I arrived and held my hand as we walked down the stairs to the bar. I'm not sure if I looked uncomfortable because, I was. Heels

Your Pain is Your Purpose
I vividly remember the first time I heard this sentence. I was alone, probably 20 years old sitting as far back in the audience as I could in the Brava Theater Center on 24th Street. I had taken BART home from downtown and it was such a pretty day I decided to get out in the middle of the mission and explore. I can't remember where I was coming from... but I'll never forget where I ended up. As I turned left on 24th Street, I remember the sun hitting my face and all the brigh

An Unconditional Love
No one tells you that having a pet changes your life. But it does. After 13+ years of being by my side, it’s clear that out of all the loves I’ve ever had, absolutely none will ever compare to the unconditional love I feel for Charlie. It's true. How strange is it that love can be so profound, even when you can’t speak the same language or hear back those little words that mean everything ... I L O V E Y O U I do. I love him. So much. Too much. It’s sad that time flies so q

Mental Health For All
Mental Health For All is the theme for this year's October 10, 2020 Mental Health Day which makes perfect sense given the impact that Covid-19 has had on every single one of us. We've all been hit really hard with this unexpected, scary and painful blow. Given the uncertainty and fear this pandemic has caused, many of us have been left to feel afraid, worried, stressed and overwhelmed. Some of you reading this right now might be suffering from lack of sleep, anxiety and perha

If It's Not a Hell Yes, It's a No.
When I was 23, I briefly dated a man and he taught me a lesson I'll never forget. He was a few years older. He was successful. He was tall, kind and attractive. He was inspirational, motivational and he had quotes memorized. He was what I thought "perfect" might be like. He was considerate. He opened the car and restaurant door and before I could pull out my wallet when the check came, he had informed the waiter it was 'already paid" at the front. How is this even real? This

Jealousy... or is it Envy?
I have a client. Let's call her "Mary". And in case you're wondering, "go for it V, tell 'em what kinda woman I am. Maybe I'm not alone, just change my name so I don't die of embarrassment!" I deeply admire Mary. She's the epitome of what most would consider, a "successful" woman. She's very educated. Has a stable, well paying job doing what she loves. She's married and has a 3 year old little boy. She lives in a pretty home with 2 cats. She can afford to pay a nanny to help

5 Ways I Surrender to Spirit
Being spiritual doesn't mean I howl at the moon, or that I dance in circles around a fire-pit in the nude, although given Covid, getting out to dance does sound fun right about now. I do however believe that there is something greater, bigger and stronger in this universe than what we can see p h y s i c a l l y. When life gets really hard, we tend to reach for help, and sometimes once we've exhausted our physical resources, we call to something "out there" to give a helping

Beyond Depression Lies Love
Clink! I tossed what looked like the most perfect penny, up and over the crowd. Down it went to the bottom of the gorgeous Fontana di Trevi. I'll never forget it. It felt firm in-between my fingers before I tossed it into the unknown, into the universe. "Wait... had I wished for the right thing?" I paused. Of course I had. It's all I ever wanted. Nothing else came close. Before my solo trip to Italy in 2012, I was anything but happy. My college professors, colleagues, family

3 ways to give to yourself
Most women tend to be givers. That's not an opinion. It's a fact. Even though we are so caring, giving and loving, we tend to leave ourselves last on the "give list". Don't we deserve our energy, time, devotion, care and love as well? But when do you give to the woman staring back at you in your reflection? When do you give to YOURSELF? It's funny to think that even though we are so caring, giving and loving, we tend to leave ourselves last on the "give list". Don't we deserv
