Selves of Future Past

June 29, 2014 by Liz 2 Comments

Choosing the Path of Ease

February 10, 2013 by Liz 3 Comments

If you’ve read much of my blog, you know I embody just a bit of drama. My life lessons loom large, my sorrows great, my joy overwhelming – at least in my own mind. I’ve had a fair amount of training in learning from suffering – growing up with an abusive, mentally ill father, being […]

Why Work With Me?

Because I'm on your side. Because I can often see the beautiful truth about you, even when you can't. Because I understand what it's like to wonder if I will ever get over 'my issues' - and how it feels to believe a job was eroding my soul. Read My Story...
