Building Trust and Respect in a Relationship
How do you build a relationship with a wild horse? The same way we build trust and respect in relationships. No ropes. Free will. It works every time — with horses, with cats, with romantic relationships, and with friendship and business relationships. I’m not talking about “open” romantic relationships; I’m not talking about letting people […]
Let Go and Trust After You Try Your Hardest
Once you’ve done all you can, let your desire go and trust. You’ll be amazed by what happens next. Awoke this morning about 645 and felt so grateful for the cool air coming through the windows. Still in bed, looking out my window at that half-light of night’s dark and morning’s light; I heard an […]
Personal Transformation a Wild Read Away with Martha Beck’s Diana, Herself
Personal transformation through going wild? Yes! Yes! Yes! (And if those three words remind you of Meg Ryan’s wildly enthusiastic fake orgasm from “When Harry Met Sally” — then — great! our minds run in the same rom-com neural pathway. But I digress.) What I’m yelling Yes! about is Martha Beck‘s newest book, and first […]
Hurting? Scared? Worn Out? Move Toward Joy Now!
For anyone hurting or scared or feeling worn out this morning: finding a way to move toward joy. I was writing in my journal earlier while having my coffee. I paused, looked up and out the window which, when I had sat down 10 minutes earlier, had been a sky of just overcast — an […]

Despite being a hard worker and capable assistant, I was floundering personally and professionally. The only dream I had for myself was vague — to go to Paris. But that seemed […]
Free Coaching from Life Coach MC Coolidge
I’ve rarely felt “called” in my life to DO something. I’ve felt myself pulled toward certain places frequently, and have certainly felt enormously drawn to writing. But never a particular “calling” to take a certain action in a specific way at a certain time. But over the past few days I’ve felt a “calling” — […]
Are you ready to hear the song your bird-mate is singing?
We’ve had lovely nights these past couple of months; deliciously cool, and with the windows open, I’ve been transported by the night sounds that often go unheard in Florida thanks to the endless thrumming of air conditioners. I’ve heard raccoons rummaging, motorcycles revving at a distance, the low murmur of a couple taking a midnight […]
Life Coach Helped Me Save My Own Butt
Working with a life coach saved my butt on a couple of occasions. Before becoming a coach myself, I hired a life coach on two separate occasions, years apart, to help me achieve specific goals, and I was astounded at how quickly I was able to effect meaningful change in my life with the help […]
Want to Feel More Alive? Fan the Fire of Authenticity
When I was living and working in Paris for a short time, back in the 90s, my favorite museum was the Musée de Rodin … August Rodin, the French sculptor. As a wanna-be writer, I was intrigued by Rodin’s belief that, before an artist can create art, he “must be ready to be consumed by […]
