Hi everyone. My name is Christina and I’m a “getting it right” addict. I’ve written far fewer newsletters this past year because the drafts didn’t feel good enough to share with you. I’ve been putting off the re-launch of my Walking With Your Divine Self website for almost a year. I’ve let a few (okay, […]
A friend and I recently chatted about the difference between peacekeepers and peacemakers. It’s an important distinction. Peacekeepers are those who maintain the status quo. The image of United Nations forces in blue, wearing body armor and holding rifles, comes to mind. There’s an irony there. They’ll use force if they have to, just to […]
I recently thought about something I’d been taught a long time ago: when writing a news story, always incorporate the Five W’s – Who, What, When, Where, and Why. (I’d add an H, but more about that later.) Take a moment to tune into the essential, deep and true part of yourself, and then ask […]

New clients always ask “How long is this going to take?” When I reply, “I don’t have a clue, but you do,” they get a little freaked out. So, I remind them about each of our roles in creating a life and career they love. My role is to ask them questions to uncover their […]
This long post, and the long story in it, was a long time in the making. It started with an interest that turned into a curiosity that turned into a passion. I’ve always been fascinated with horses. I’m not sure why. I’ve only ridden a horse twice, and both experiences were the typical “put the […]
A few days ago, my mother celebrated the 55th anniversary of her arrival here in the U.S. As did so many others, she left Europe to find a better life for herself At the age of 19, unable to speak English and with no money to speak of, she arrived by ship in New York […]
