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 […]

A recent episode had the crew of Discovery trying to find a way to travel through the galactic barrier and into another galaxy for an important First Contact mission. It’s not as simple as just flying through. There’s a lot of […]
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 […]
