Revolutionary Education for Life Transformation, or how to move, parent three children and make magic happen simultaneously...

Picture "What will you do with your one wild and precious life?" Mary Oliver's words have followed me around many a rapid strewn river bend, and this week I feel like I am closer than ever to an answer...

Tomorrow is the full launch of my new website (s), ecourses, books and kits...everything I've been creating for the past year is moving out into the open in one gigantic flow.  Which feels big, and fabulously right.  

And, as with any wave, many other things are caught up in the swell.

1.  I'm moving from my home of four years, it's official.  Our landlord is selling and we can't (yet) afford to buy in this neighborhood.

As I write this now, boxes line my living room, the house is in chaos, the garden calls to me for tending and in another month our family will be settled into our apartment, a whole new way of being on us for a year while we save some money and prepare for the future.

2.  All the kids are in for the summer, which in my teaching days meant that I would transition from working mom to at home mom.  Not so when my work is year round, my office the living room. How to mostly not lose it when times get tough... I'm a natural stress case.  It's genetic, a little type A mixed with some other pathologies too route to name.  But if there's one thing I've learned in the past four years it's how to resist the anxiety and depression that comes along with being overwhelmed.

And, yes, I'm kind of overwhelmed.

So I let it go.

My house is a mess, my kids are playing on those screened devices that I normally limit like soda and candy, the yard is only mine for a few more weeks.  Some emails aren't being answered, some appointments are rescheduled.  We are eating pizza, again, tonight.  And right now, I feel pretty great about it all.

The Moon Divas Certification, Self-Care and Transition Support, Ceremonies for Communities, and several kits and ebooks are all up in the shop.  The courses aren't email integrated yet, meaning you get a set of download links instead of a pretty weekly email, but they are up and functional.  And pretty amazing.  I would want to take all of these classes, the true test for any work I create.

Tomorrow there will be new additions and promotions, and even though I haven't completed everything exactly as I thought in the timeline I had, I'm really proud of this work, for what it is in the moment.

Once the moving dust settles I have all kinds of exciting plans to spill, including teaching opportunities, upcoming live classes, some business propositions for the faithful MD and Vestal U audiences (that's you!) and, of course, continual inspiration and community creation.

We'll celebrate, together.  Because what is is pretty great if you let go of your expectations.

With love in the flow--
