What Is The Motivation?

I spoke with a client today about following her dream. Her dream of creating a new business that is motivated by a true passion not only to offer an amazing, unique and valuable product to the world, but also to create an unusual life. A life inspired by her true heart, her soul's longing. As she tells me her dreams, her eyes tear, her heart opens, her life unfolds.

Then she stops. She tells me she fears stepping into this new space, this unknown, and she would rather cling to her corporate job with her 401k, her imagined securities, and the knowing of where to go everyday. This is her quandry - to live a passionate life, or to choose a complacent one.

I ask her to tell me more about her corporate job where she works as a part of a global tech team supporting computer systems for a Fortune 100 company. She tells me how she can take 1/2 days on Fridays and her face lights up. She tells me how she sneaks out for starbucks with her colleagues on Wednesdays after lunch and again, an ignited spark. Then she talks about her long hours, time away from her son, her knowing that this isn't her life...and I mirror to her that the only time she sparked in our conversation was when she spoke of her ESCAPES.

Why is it so many are motivated by comfortable when passion is what inspires the soul? In 20 years in practice, I can say it is one of the most common dilemma's I find. I can also say without wavering that when an individual chooses passion over money as their inspiration, money flows and passion creates a whole new level of existence.

May you find passion in every day.

Blessings,

Know Your Water

I love this site so I'm posting it as it has links to show what your district shows for water contamination...and what it doesn't. Put in your zip and see what it shows!

An Easier Recipe for Sesame Milk

From my September Newsletter (click here)

*********************** I got a little feedback that my overnight recipe for sesame milk took too long and people wanted another option. Well, you know me an options, I LOVE THEM! Ingredient List: 1) 1/2 cup sesame paste/tahini (you can buy this in jars at a health food store, BUY GLASS JARS, the metal ones can in my experience taste metallic) 2) 1 tablespoon water AND 4 cups water 3) 1 tablespoon agave nectar if you choose 4) 1 teaspoon salt if you choose Wisk the tblsn of water into the paste until it starts to get hard to stir. Then add all other ingredient and blend in a blender or food processor. You can make this as thin or as thick as you wish and I use this in recipes now instead of cream and it's delicious! My friend Sarah even makes it on the go! ENJOY

Happy News...FINALLY!

I used to want to create a site for happy news. Instead of all of the horrifying news stories that were blasted at us every day I wanted a site where we could read about how people were kind to each other, what good inventions and ideas were being manifested around the world and how famous people/politicians were also often making GOOD decisions.

I did one day, it took the entire day to find even 5 stories on the web that were valid. It was exhausting.

I asked Spirit and was told it was being taken care of. I let it go and held it in my heart.

I'm so glad others had similiar mindset's. The power of being a part of a global community in this amazing time! HAPPY NEWS! SWEET!
