Here, There & Everywhere
I know I haven’t shown up here regularly in a while. Don’t be jealous, dear blog, but it’s at least in part because I’ve started a Substack. Actually, it’s me and my Muses, no matter the platform, so you’re not missing out. I’m loving the way it feels over on Substack. It’s like when I…

Letting Go of Compartmentalizing
One thing I’ve learned during my five-plus decades on Earth is that we human beings like to make things way more complicated than they need to be. This is especially true in regard to our biggest goals and dreams. Six years into building my dream career, I’m slowing down and relaxing into my entrepreneur life,…

Starcat’s Favorites: Wellness Upgrades
I’m on a new leg of my health journey. I haven’t talked about this much online up until now, but I’ve lost 26 pounds over the last three months. I’d been steadily gaining a bunch of weight throughout perimenopause, though I hadn’t really changed my diet much. My amazing doctor retired a couple of years…

Starcat’s Favorites: A Rollercoaster Ride
No, not a literal rollercoaster, although I do enjoy those. What I’m referring to is that I’ve been having quite the adventure this month! It was my birthday, and I had fun celebrating with family and friends. Some wonderful witchy folks also gathered with me for our 7th annual ritual for Yemaya’s Feast Day. Then…

Starcat’s Favorites: Yoga Practice
As I write this, the calendar has officially switched to Spring, and the Sun is in Aries. This is our sassy Aries-born catten (still a kitten but almost a cat), Milton LoveCat. We’re having that weather that makes you wish it was warm out – but it isn’t, truly, not for me, anyway. But I…

Starcat’s Favorites: My Library
I started a project earlier this winter that is truly just for me: organizing and cataloguing our home library. It’s turned out to be a perfect way to help me deal with the grieving process, by keeping my mind busy. Plus, I find playing with my books to be a lot of fun. My catalogue…

Life Through the Lens of Pleasure
Here’s a question for you: How often do you do things just for your own personal pleasure? Do you even know what those things would be? I’m in a coaching program where our theme this month is embracing pleasure. Even though I’m at a point in my life where my kids are grown, my partners…

In Which I Surrender…
My 2022 Word of the Year is RECEIVE, but over the course of this year my inner work has morphed into a theme of SURRENDER. I’m moving from the head to the heart, in terms of which part of me gets to lead the way. I’ve been tapping more deeply into my intuition and the…

Receiving Success
As I prepare for the beginning of a new calendar year, two words have emerged as themes for me for 2022. The first one that showed up was SUCCESS. In many ways, though, I’ve already achieved the success that I’ve been visualizing and working toward over the past several years. My business, which is my…

Starcat’s Favorites: Upleveling
How is it that the entire month of October is, well, over? Did it fly by for you like it did for me? I’m sure part of it is that I was away for a week. BlackLion and I finally got to go on our much-awaited vacation to Cozumel Island, Mexico! It was amazing. We…
