Embrace the Wisdom Within
You know your truth lives deep within your Being.
Yet in a world filled with distractions, itโs not always easy to stand firm in your Inner Knowing, in your own profound truth that lives deep within your Essence.
Something needs to transform for you to tap into your Wisdom and choose to live it, embody it, be an example of it.
Your journey is not just a path; it's a sacred exploration of self-discovery, where the inner realms of wisdom are unlocked, and the Quintessential Self is revealed.
Move beyond the accumulation of knowledge and integrate wisdom gained from your life experiences.
This is empowering. This is what the Quintessential Woman strives to attain.
Concrete to Grass: How Green Spaces Unlock Our Inner Magic
When did we stop appreciating the expansiveness of parks and other areas of green spaces?
Iโve been asked a lot lately: what are my dreams? What is it I want to experience?
So many things ping pong around in my head.
I just read this headline and remembered one Iโve held for a long while:
As developers pave over Charlotte, a local farm gets $1.4M boost to grow dramatically
It reminded me of a desire: to be able to buy LAND with no buildings on it to save it from being paved over. We need the trees. We need empty expansive spaces to run and feel delight and freedom. We just need to not have more buildings with climate controlled environments and no sunshine.
Whenever I take my grandson outside, especially to a park, he runs and runs and runs. Sometimes heโll turn back and wait for me to catch up โ and when Iโm close enough, he starts up again.
And I find myself wondering: when did we stop appreciating the expansiveness of these spaces? WHY do we have to monetize them with a store...
Unlocking Your Quintessential Self: The Path to Authentic Power
Mary Jane.
Not the shoes, but the woman who owned the small business where Iโd been hired to help in an assistant role.
Mary Jane liked things done one way, and one way only.
Her way or it was wrong.
Never mind that the result is the same. She was a sock, shoe, sock, shoe sort of person. Those that are sock, sock, shoe, shoe โ well, thatโs just wrong.
The entire conference table was set up for a project. She showed me how to do it (her way).
It didnโt work in my brain; in fact, I found it illogical.
So I did it my way.
As a micro manager, she came in to hoverโฆ and I got busted! I had to switch back to her way.
But then I switched back.
This environment was oppressive.
Itโs an environment I did not and do not thrive in.
This experience was at a time in my life when I was pushing my way out of my cocoon โ and Mary Jane kept shoving me back in to cook a bit longer to her liking. Trouble was I was ready to emergeโฆ And I was finding myself in the wrong room!

Decisions That Define Us: 5 Keys to Aligned Choices
I didnโt know it, but the decision I made would change my life.
I saw the announcement about an event in a state I loved and I didnโt hesitate or give it a second thought. I said yes, clicked through and invested.
No second thoughts. No excuses. No what ifs or yeah buts.ย
This is the ease of making choices from a place of Knowing.ย
The event was like Going Home. It was so right I found myself wondering why I had diverged from this path? Yet I didnโt even ask myself this question in this manner. It was still cloudy, but my contentment was familiar and I relished it.
The result of the decision ultimately created a very real struggle โ and many questions surfaced:
What does this mean (to me)?
What do I DO about it?
If I do go back, (change my mind) what will people think?
I honored this struggle and gave myself 3 months (!) before I could actually accept it inside my body.ย
Here are five tips for making any decisions, particularly difficult ones;

Turn Your Bloopers Into Your Greatest Blessings
In a traditional job when we make a mistake, you know what will happen. Wrists slapped, maybe called out in front of others around a boardroom table, perhaps even fired. (When I worked for a huge international company for a department President, he loved to send me to the principals office: the HR dude. And that was after he yelled at me. It was a joke, and the two of us (HR guy) would just sit and talkโฆ At least I wasnโt decorating a desk for those moments.)ย
ย
But with comedy the error is proudly showcased and shown over and over again. They are known as โbloopers.โ
ย
Wow. What a reframe.
ย
What if you took your small or massive errors and failures and reframed them?Youโll always find the blessings when you take time to look for them inside the โfailure.โ
ย
What if you take the lessons and leverage them in a unique, powerful, unconventional way?

Years ago I attended a Young Living convention and we could buy a bottle of Lavender/Peppermint essential oil. It is and was not...
An Embodied Jewish Priestess is a Quintessential Woman
I met a Quintessential Woman last week. She is an embodied Jewish Priestess who exudes joy, grace, mirth. She lives and breathes her faith without pretentiousness. Her faith is her life; her life is her faith. She carries out her best practices without any show or need for attention. In fact, if I didnโt know what she was doing softly in the background, it would not be obvious she was doing anything. I believe most people didnโt even notice her actions.ย
ย
I even heard her daughter ask her โmama, would you bless me?โ
ย
I didnโt even have time to ask her what that meant? Is it a daily practice for a Jewish Mama Priestess to bless her children?
ย
How utterly delightful. And holy.ย
ย
The world needs more women like this.ย
ย
There were other women there who were the exact opposite โ forcing their faith on the group as a whole. At the very least it was inappropriate. At the most โฆ. well, I have lots of words. Whatโs yours?
ย
Being in her energy and then experiencing the โotherโ ...

Iโm sure youโve heard that expression.
Some breakdowns are massive. Obvious. Ridiculously painful. And usually feel never-ending.ย
Some, however, are almost unrecognizable. If we are not tuned in, in fact, we may miss it altogether and โjustโ chalk it up to a bad day.
Some breakdowns feel like youโre standing in the middle of the room looking at your life as it is piled around you โ a heap of junk thatโs all broken apart and ugly.
Some breakdowns feel like ugh, I am too lazy to give a damn about anything today.
Whichever breakdown it is, it can be comforting to know your breakthrough is soooo close! You canโt push, pull, prod your way there faster. You have to go through the tunnel first.ย
Did you know that as the butterfly struggles to break free from the cocoon, that if you helped and opened it up just a bit for her, she would die? Her struggle is part of her breakthrough.
The same holds true for you.
Someone can lovingly hold space for your struggle, can reassure you that yo...
