Death, we've all experienced it.

It comes in many forms, the loss of a loved one, the death of a marriage, a home, a family, a four legged friend or job. 

My family and I suffered a tragic loss over the Summer, my husband of eighteen years was killed in a motorcycle accident, and with him was the death of who I thought I was and what my future would hold.

I share with you, my heart filled with compassion and understanding as you may be learning to navigate through your own transitions, some abrupt in nature, some more gradual.

Life is filled with many cycles of death, some more difficult than others.   

Today I want to send you feelings of peace and trust and a reminder that you are not alone, you are seen and understood, loved by a source much greater than your own understanding - and it is supporting you on your soul's journey and purpose for this life.

A childhood filled with both physical and emotional abuse, sexual assaults and finally a near death experience where I lost every ounce of blood in my body and then some, woke me up enough to understand life was about more than I had been struggling with.

It took a near death experience to help me recognize that there is more to our existence and I hadn't been using my rightful power, although admittedly it took years before I would truly understand how to use it.

Hello Friend, 

I have been really studying emotional eating and managing the tendency to use food to numb out and not feel so much, so I created this weeks podcast to share with you in hopes to be of service.

As an empath we feel everything on such a deep level and the sugar cravings and overeating can sometimes be one of our coping mechanisms to help us numb those feelings out and not have to deal with them.

You know the feeling, the donut screaming your name on the break room table. The Ben and Jerry's calling you from the freezer. The warm chocolate chip cookies your daughter just baked, beckoning from the kitchen counter. The nachos eating away at your willpower as you binge on Netflix. Here they are again-the cravings!

We all have them, but do you know why, and what to do about them? Cravings have both physical and emotional components. The most common foods we crave are sugar, carbs, salt, chocolate and my fave cheese! 

So let's chat about some helpful tips to...
