Before I left Australia, I spoke at a beautiful festival in Mullumbimby. It’s not often in my job I get to spend three whole days speaking and running workshops with no shoes on, being reminded to take a moment of deep listening (silence) on the hour, every hour, and to…
Control is a reoccurring theme in my life. Whether that’s a 6 year battle with an eating disorder, being a work-a-holic, being the one that needs to carry everything or even trying to regulate the overwhelming desire to have a panic attack if friends or roommates leave my house out…
There have been times in my life where I’ve been on the brink of actually declaring to myself, and to life, that I want to stay in my dysfunction. I’ve felt safe, and comfortable and I genuinely enjoyed breaking down my potential both subtly through tiny, seemingly insignificant choices, and…
During my tour through Spain and the U.K. I’ve had the pleasure of working with, and meeting, some exceptional individuals. People on the precipice of effectuating some of the biggest paradigms shifts the world has ever seen. I used to be look at sideways when I told people that connection…

Oi, you. Yeah, you. Did you know that you’re writing the story of humanity, right NOW? Did you know the future of existence lays in your hands, and your mind, and your heart? Did you know that with every action, you’re putting pen to paper and writing the history of…
I sat in a presentation a couple of weeks ago, listening to a leading psychologist. His opening premise was “there is no truth, only perception.” He stated it definitively – as if it were truth (oh the irony). I put up my hand and said; “I feel, although perception plays…
