I’m enjoying the desert sun today now that I’ve landed in Tucson, Arizona after a fun-filled (and butt numbing) long road trip with my mom from Minneapolis, Minnesota.  

Above is a picture of us at the Petrified Forest and Painted Desert National Park. WOW! What a stunning display of nature.

I’m also getting ready for my trip to LA tomorrow, where I’ll be all week for an event I’m eager to be part of, “The Millions Within”.   

You’ll be able to feel the expansion and pick up on some kernels when I broadcast live from LA on Friday forthe “Leaders’ Call To Adventure” telesummit, and the “Secrets Of The Wealthy Goddess Revealed” complimentary teleseminar. Join us.

In the meantime, I have been in deep reflection after receiving a very intense backlash response to my last message titled, “Less Work, More Play”.

WOAH!  I was told my thinking was delusional, that I made working hard “evil”, and that my beliefs were egoic (just to highlight a few). 

One of the greatest universal fears (so you’re not alone) that I hear repeatedly regarding stepping into your truth and your authentic self is being attacked. 

I used to have this fear, too.  So much so that I held back who I truly was in order to avoid any pain of rejection or attack.

But as the years have passed and my purpose has aligned, I recognized that the pain of holding back is far greater than being all that I am. Yes, even with the risk of relationships being rocked, attacks on character, challenges on my beliefs and rejection of my unique expression. 

Now I feel a deep abiding trust that is less shaken by outward opinion.

Don’t get me wrong, I definitely felt triggered. 

Yet I was able to recognize the gifts in this latest “attack” and give thanks for the way it’s helping me settle more deeply into my role as a leader.

• Yes, I stir things up!
• Yes, I challenge the status quo!
• Yes, I dismantle what isn’t working!
• Yes, I push buttons! 

I’m here to help create radical change. There’s still too much crisis and suffering on our planet.

So until we restore balance and ensure that all beings are nourished in all ways, I’ll be here, persisting in the visions and possibilities that I know we can move into together.

Below is one of my favorite quotes, “Here’s To The Crazy Ones”, which has provided me inspiration & courage.

Stay true to you and stay tuned for more of my “delusional thinking“. (Hee hee) 

“Here’s to the crazy ones.

The misfits. The rebels.

The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes – the ones who see things differently.

They’re not fond of rules and they have no respect for the status quo.

You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them.

About the only thing that you can’t do is ignore them. 

Because they change things.”
