Mythological and Disney Rant Part II: Healing My Good Girl Bad Girl Split

This post takes the discussion of the Gorgon-Athena split to a new level, continuing from part I from last week to discuss a personal healing of my two sides. 


Two weeks ago I had the pleasure of hearing "Gazing Within", a soung healing composition by Jim Oliver recorded with my energy teacher Kenji Kumar energizing the studio.

I use my voice and harp for healing so I know the best way to take it in. Lay down and get comfy and just stay open like a child.

As I listened I suddenly had two im...

Spotlight: Pamela Chen, author of Introductions to Magical Creatures: Mermaids, Unicorns and Fairies

Today we interview a special friend of mine! My Magical Buddy Pamela Chen-- she's a spiritual teacher, intuitive healer and now published author. WooHOO!
Sofia: What are magical/mystical creatures?

Pam: These are the creatures that you hear in legends and stories. Creatures that no one can prove with physical evidence even though some of you may have encountered them before and know that they do exist! 

Most of these creatures have a different vibrational energy then us humans and that is w...

Mythological & Disney Rant Part I: On the Good Girl---Bad Girl Split

Two weeks ago I had the pleasure to hear women's mysteries expert Nuit Moore discuss the myth of Medusa.

Her retelling of the relationship between Athena and the snake headed Gorgon opened my eyes to a very sinister and common division every modern woman is carrying around inside of her. This is part one.

In the next post next Wednesday, I'm also going to talk about how this myth relates to my healing journey and the Little Mermaid. Please sign up for the email list to avoid missing out.

Special Event: Magic at the Women's Visionary Congress 2013

Image owned by WVCThis weekend I flew to California for the first time to attend the Women's Visionary Congress. I can't imagine a better reason to visit the West Coast for the first time.
I recorded a short video about my experience there.
To be honest I didn't know what to expect from my travels, I found a lot more than I bargained for in a wonderful way-- amazing people, profound ideas, and deep sense of understanding of some problems I had been sorting through lately.


I'm truly feeling bles...

Process: The Commitment it Takes to Write & Make Your Dreams Come True

It takes courage to write. It takes courage to express a deeper dream.

It's more comfortable to be confused than focused. It's more comfortable to be lazy than driven.

Or if you are driven, it's more comfortable to overwhelm yourself with everything you "need" to get done than to objectively evaluate and pare down with confidence.

It's more comfortable to go it alone than to make a real commitment by investing in support.

Because maybe it would really freak you out to be successful. That might ch...

Process: Going on a Media Diet

In the last post Self Sabotage New Moon I vowed to take a weekend off from passive entertainment including the internet, social media, reading, listening to recorded voice or radio, and watching TV.

This proved to be a very difficult endeavor. But I am glad I did it all the same. 

First I will describe the benefits of the media diet and second I will admit all the ways in which I cheated.


So there is something about taking a couple days off of social media and all that.  

Life has more...

Are You Receiving the Juice? Pic by Sofia Wren

Trying to make your dreams come true? Are you getting frustrated, making vision boards, visualizing your success, using affirmations and seeing nada?

Well maybe you are skipping a step.

The following post rings true for me lately.

I will probably spend my entire life sorting out this one lesson --- learning to receive. 

It's very important as a creative, sensitive entrepreneur. I always want more inspiration, more intuitive pings, more money and...
