Do you see a healer? Not a medical-Western-doctor type healer but an energy healer? Someone who does things you can’t explain but gives you answers that don’t need to be explained? Finding these people to interact with your energy, your spirit, your…
I have never in 48 years taken a trip with no other purpose than connecting with myself. Yes, I have gone to classes and spent nights away from my family. I've had plenty of work trips that took me across the pond for a few nights. And, I even spe…
This morning, I had a BAD morning. Last night, I had a BAD night. Here’s the situation, I am single parenting this week…and next week, as Alex is in London for a conference and then will do another week of meetings with companies. It’s a good thin…
When do you connect with your child? When is easiest? When is it hardest? How do you connect with them? First and foremost, the hardest time for me to connect with Teal is when she is hurting or extremely frustrated. Normally this is when her,…
In my class with Maureen Burford, we are currently working on our 2nd chakra. This is what Ellen Tadd refers to as the Identity Chakra. This chakra focuses on many things but the area I want to discuss today is balance. In her books, Ellen describes…
In a recent conversation with my mom (we were recording an episode for the podcast), she reminded me of the importance of 5 things. Years ago, I would wake up each morning and write 5 things that I was grateful for in a notebook next to my bed…
I am currently in a class with Maureen Burford from Creative Lives called Foundations 1. We meet each Tuesday via Zoom to discuss the assigned chapters in two books by Ellen Tadd: The Wisdom of the Chakras and A Framework for Wise Education. This is…
As a special needs mama...this says it all. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-g4UWvcZn5U I hope you can find the joy, love, tears, and inspiration that I found in this video. Neither of us is better than the other. We each get to be exactly who …
In my episode with Lenora Edwards, an online speech therapist, she used the word powerful to describe a child with special needs. She added to her word, however...and it was the extra commentary that made all the difference. We all become more powe…
On my podcast, For Our Special Kids, at the end of each episode, I used to ask the question, “What is one word that you would use to describe a child with special needs?” The word “hope” never came up. Looking back, I am actually shocked it didn’t …
So, I got this message today during a bioenergy healing session with Jody Goddard. “The vigilant must not wait!” What the…? While I know what vigilant means, I actually looked it up to see if there was another meaning that I was missing. The Goog…
Do we need to feel guilt towards our spirit team when we fall off the spiritual wagon? I’ve fallen off the wagon. Yes, I’ve said it. I fell off the wagon and it drove away. I’m also happy to say I found the wagon and I climbed back on. We’ve all …
So, I very rarely turn off my computer. I know it is a terrible habit. Please don’t lecture me about hackers and all that! It really comes down to time management. I normally get done with a project about 10 seconds before I’m committed to be ins…
How can the law of attraction help you be a better parent? What you think about is created. Buddha, Socrates, Emerson, Thoreau…they all wrote about it. This is not a new concept. Vibrationally, what we put out into the world, comes back to us. Peri…
This morning was rough. Really rough. I had a few last-minute work things to finish before waking Teal up for school. They took longer than expected resulting in me being 10 minutes behind schedule. As you know as a “getting a kid to school” mom/d…
Here is a peek at our bookshelf. What are you reading? How to Read the Akashic Records: Accessing the Archive of the Soul and Its Journey by Linda Howe The Artist's Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity by Julia Cameron The Book of H…
I have been listening to some of the older episodes because I realized I didn't take enough notes for myself and Teal. :-) In the Human Design episode, Kaydee mentioned that when Teal and I aren't happy with something, we get frustrated. We don't re…
Hello 4OSK! I hope you are doing well. I just got back from a 2-night vacation with, get this, JUST MY HUSBAND. This has not happened since Teal was born (6+ years) and I am proud to report that we talked about dreams, hopes, plans, love, goals, bl…
Glad to be home After a 33-hour traveling extravaganza (aka nightmare), we have returned from Europe and are getting back into the groove of life here in Lake Tahoe. Note...Teal was a flipping rockstar the entire 3 weeks we were away...well, minus…
Do you ever feel like you're kind of drowning...but slowly? It's been a weird few weeks. Mercury in retrograde, COVID, dangerous and weird flooding, European unrest, monkeypox, a bear market, and let's not forget things like laundry, folding clothe…
Hello and Welcome to For Our Special Kids! I wanted to personally thank you for joining this community and supporting Teal and me. Hopefully, you can tell on the podcast that I am the luckiest mama around. Teal is pure joy and magic. This journe…
Not even sure where to begin. I feel like there is so much to share and so many places to begin that I simply can’t begin. So, I will start from where I am being called to start. The fan! NOTE: After typing this all, I reread it. You all are go…
Hello…anyone out there? Well, it’s been forever. And, truthfully, life just got in the way…AND, my ego got in the way (more on that later). I started 3 different blogs before all hell broke loose in my household. Sickness took over…guests came a…
“Remember to feel your feet.” “Bring your lips together.” “Put your head down.” “Take a deep breath…relax.” “Stand up strong.” Let me tell you what happened…our daughter isn’t walking yet (key word “yet”), and wears Magic Dancing Boots for ~4 h…
