Beringe Priorities for Success and Fun

I know I'm supposed to post on Mondays but now it is Tuesday, and it’s okay I’m posting today.  I forgive myself for not being a robot. I am human, and that’s okay. Besides, it takes me one to two hours to craft a blog so that it's meaningful to you and me. Content is king, and if I can't produce king, then it's a waste of both of our time.

So there was no way I had time to reach out to you yesterday because I had to prioritize to get a project completed. I had a deadline. Do you feel like that at all when you have to focus on one thing at the exclusion of everything else? You can’t multitask because the project is stretching you to the outer cores of your being.

Sipping On My Coffee

I’m a woman. I’ve raised children. I’ve been a therapist. I’ve been assertive as well as passive. I've played many roles, and the result is wholeness.  And in my business, I’m doing the same thing. My company is in my home, but I can run it anywhere because we can Skype, Zoom and telephone calls. You can come to my Yurt and tell your story. The storytelling process can be done anywhere if you have a listener. I am a listener.

I am sipping on my coffee in my kitchen. Bone broth chicken soup is cooking on my stove top for my girlfriend who was in the hospital with diverticulitis. Her doctors recommended that she have some broth for the next few days. Kim texted me Read More

I got an email from my ex-husband

last week with his flight information. He’s booked a flight to Chicago in mid-march because it’s Mom’s birthday. She is turning 85 years old. I won’t go into the particulars, but Paul and I made sure when we got divorced we would retain our status as family members because we loved each of our families and didn’t want that to go away. It’s something my current husband, Grant, had to agree to when we got married. Paul’s partner has a difficult time accepting this, so family gatherings in Seattle don’t include me or don’t include her. It’s sad for me because Paul and I worked hard to have this interconnection but much as I’d love Paul’s partner to accept me, she does not so I move on.

Dare To Come In Contact With The Hero In Your Heart

We connect to the hero in our heart when we tell our stories that conquer our fears and anxiety. Anxiety stops the heart from remembering, and stress keeps us in panic mode. We forget who we are.

The inner voice in our heart is where all the support resides.

Close your eyes. Put your hand on your heart, and remember a time that you conquered fear, panic, grief or anxiety. Close your eyes, put your hand on your heart and feel the first story that comes up. I’ll do it too and that way we can compare stories.

Here’s my story:

“It was a very dark time for me, growing up. I did not feel supported or loved. I was a sensitive child, so I felt everything. I felt peoples’ fear. I felt peoples' anger. In my home, I did not feel love. I d Read More
