Google+emailTwitterFacebookLinkedin When I first felt the angry, desperate and sad yearnings inside me for more nourishment, I was in a dark place. At home with a new baby. Spending my days preparing food, cleaning up food, cleaning up the house, washing dishes, preparing more food, cleaning up more food, changing diapers, doing laundry, putting the babe down for a nap, cleaning up the kitchen, …

Google+emailTwitterFacebookLinkedin I have opened registration for the Juicy Woman Revolution full-day retreat on July 16th in Toronto, Canada. My intention is that every woman who comes walks away having been filled to the brim with self-love, in a body that she feels connected to and adoring of, and having experienced what it feels like to be fully expressed and fully herself. And most importantly, she’s going …

Google+emailTwitterFacebookLinkedin I know a lot about my overwhelm. My anxiety. My too much. I am in a constant flux of where my too much is, what to drop, what to take on, what my needs are right now and what I need to do today to love and honour myself. (And when you start to live in your body more than in your brain, you …

Google+emailTwitterFacebookLinkedin I have been thinking about the concept of feeling alive…as in, how do we know we are alive? And for some reason, my brain instantly goes to this scene from “Thelma and Louise”. I think of it often because when I first watched the movie, it gave me chills. For those who don’t know this movie… wait a second! What the….. IF YOU HAVEN’T SEEN THIS MOVIE then WHAT ARE …

Google+emailTwitterFacebookLinkedinSometimes it’s during the day. Usually it’s at night. And I do it when I need to. Needing to feels like there’s something in my body that needs to be expressed. Allowed. Just felt. I can tell when I need to because I feel this hard, stuck, heavy feeling in my body. And I know it is something shouting “Hey! I’m here! Can you hear me? Listen to …

Google+emailTwitterFacebookLinkedin I am not a domesticated animal. I am a wild animal that should not be allowed in nice clean houses. (Good thing I don’t have one of those…) Here’s the line that keeps repeating itself when I am cleaning up some mess on the table. For the fifth time. Grocery shopping. Cleaning toilets. (Actually, that one is a joke because I don’t clean). Doing drop-off …
Continue readingGoogle+emailTwitterFacebookLinkedinHere it is; my first audio recording. Just changing it up. Sometimes my mouth works faster than my brain so I thought this might be a good medium to try. I’m building up to video. (And to the movies, obviously.) I chose guilt as my topic. Because every woman has it. Every woman feels it. And it is such a party-pooper. After many conversations with …
Continue readingGoogle+emailTwitterFacebookLinkedin I have a version of myself that I don’t like. This Sophie shows up in times of crisis. High stress. Challenges. Fear. She is not the Sophie I want to be. The Sophie that I know I am. I start living in her when I’ve forgotten to nurture the Sophie I want to be. Do you ever feel like there is another YOU fighting …
Continue readingGoogle+emailTwitterFacebookLinkedin I know how it feels to be depleted. To be exhausted. To feel used up. To be pissed off because you, like most women, spend every day running at full speed; solving problems, working, tending to other people’s needs, proving yourself at the office, managing relationships, doing errands. You are giving your all at work, probably even if you hate it. You are …

Google+emailTwitterFacebookLinkedinI want the “impossible”. I want to be madly in love with my husband, even when we have been married, like, FOREVER. I want to have juicy, messy, screaming, mind-altering sex. I want to spend six months on a sailboat with my family. I want to spend a year in another country, with another language. I want to travel the world. I want to jump …
