Once upon a time I needed a life change

Once upon a time, I needed a life change. My life felt the same for years.I felt stuck. I needed this fresh energy.

Then I got a really good feeling about coming to Japan.

AND HERE’S A CRAZY FACT:

The month I got the idea to go to Japan was the same month my fiance moved there.

I never had the dream before. No particular love for anime or desire to spend a lot of time there.

But once I got the idea and felt the urge, I was committed.

I had no real reason to go…

Just that it fel...

Today I’m feeling extra grateful for this cute man.

Today I’m feeling extra grateful for this cute man.

We emptied our apartment, we ate dinner on a cardboard box, we unraveled just like our lives, we had various miscommunications while traveling, and we are still here.

We are together, making our way slowly back to the USA.

And we are in love.

What about you? What tops your gratitude list today?

My mantras as I move from Japan to the USA (again!!)

My mantras as I move from Japan to the USA (again!!)

They are how I managed to finish writing the outline for five chapters of a book in my fantasy series, Blood Witch yesterday.

While moving! This is epic.

I have moved internationally 2 other times this pandemic (yeah my life is cray) Anyway, this is the first time I speed full steam ahead with my writing during move out week!!

The other times I had to pause or slow down.

But these mantras help a LOT to get stuff done no matt...

Scary things can be an exciting adventure

So many people take a long time on this one.

Fear is debilitating. It works in funny ways.

It slows you down. It makes you doubt yourself.

Keep going.

I know it is possible.

I beat the fear to:
-travel all over the world by myself
-publish a very honest and brave memoir
-get on stage and sing despite stage fright
-start my own business and say goodbye to a 9 to 5

The way I got through my anxiety is by investing in the support I need.

I got coaches, courses, counselors, teach...

I never want to forget the biggest thing I have learned in Japan.

I never want to forget the biggest thing I have learned in Japan.

It is essential as a sensitive writer, creator, and entrepreneur.

SPACE.

When I got to Japan July 2018, everyone I knew in my real life and online was asleep, while I was awake and active.

Gradually, I stopped reaching for my phone.

I wasn’t as interested in the content that used to flood my nervous system with constant updates. I stopped feeling pressured to respond to emails or post online because no one would see anything I ...

Normie Life vs. Mermaid Life

Hey YOU –You are Powerful. You are Complete. You are a Work of Art. There is no one exactly like you.

Have you really been letting yourself Dream? What is limiting you?

-Trying to be perfect
-Feeling like it’s all on you
-Hiding a part of yourself
-Feeling like no one gets you
-Not doing what matters to your soul

It’s time to burn those limits to the ground and start living life like a psychic mermaid witch.

-Be happy just being you.
-Know the Universe has your back.
-Be in a fl...

I don’t know if you know this about me…

I don’t know if you know this about me…
But I can get very intense.
Maybe you can relate to having two sides, like a mermaid is half human and half fish.

There are two sides to me, too.

-Ponderous me that cares a lot about doing a great job at everything and sorting it all out the right way. Phew, it is hard work.

-Easy-going me that is all, “no worries, it will work out. The universe has my back. It will all be fab. Let’s just relax and be happy and in flow.

“Lately, I have been feeling t...

Wow if I only knew it was that easy

I wrote the post below last June when I was on the verge of leaving Japan, with no idea what the future would bring.

“Sometimes when the moment is right, I decide things. I won’t know how, but I will decide something will be created, sometimes by a certain day. And when it magically happens, I smile.

It’s happened many times already.

Recently I saw this cute Pikachu in a second hand shop with a witch hat on it. It cost about $5. It’s perfect for me.

It is too big to put in a sui...

This belief could change your life

THIS BELIEF COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE.

Dramatic?
Perhaps.

But in my most successful clients, I’ve seen them adopt this one major belief: I belong here.

The reason why this shift is so powerful is because the crazy-cool but unique people that I work with often feel really different.

Being different is actually your super power because it makes you stand out as anything you want to be: a creator, a writer, an entrepreneur, an artist, etc.

No one is like you, so you stand out. But sometimes s...
