Yoo Hoo Turning Toward the Light
Sometimes I feel like a lighthouse. Lights on. Shining bright. Beaming. Lights off. Lights on. Shining bright. Beaming. Lights off. Cue in foghorn here. When the light is on, I feel in the flow. Clear. Confident. High on life. Full on Shaman Girl shiny. And then I...
Itty Bitty Choices That Matter
My eyes glaze over briefly while my pen suspends in the air. I’m filling out school forms for Shaman Boy and need to decide which email address to use for the school directory that is sent out to all the parents. I have three emails and each have a decidedly different...
From Hostess Hohos to Healthy Eating
Remember that adorable kid Mikey from the Life cereal commercial in the late 70s/early 80s? (I know, I’m dating myself here.) Shot opens with two brothers debating over whether to eat a cereal that is supposedly good for you. They decide to pawn it off on their little...
Welcome to the Tribe
Tears spring to my eyes when I picture my friends who whole-heartedly relate to juggling and dancing through life... who make me laugh and nod “Oh yes! Been there!" as I embark on launching Shaman Girl... who give me an outlet for moaning and tell me “It’s okay” and...
Can’t Wait to Read Shaman Girl?
"I can't wait to read your book!" Aww, gee whiz, folks! And trust me, I can't wait either. But there's this little hiccup called the writing process and apparently I'm about to embark on the editing phase. So hang in there. In the meantime, here's a teeny bit of...

Pond Scum Smoothie Recipe
Ever drink Pond Scum? Nope? Me neither. Well, not actual pond scum, but a green superfood that looked suspiciously like pond scum. I would literally gag. At the thought. And the taste. See? Pond scum I tell you. Fast forward a decade, and I now drink pond scum with...
Shaman Girl: Huh? Who? What? Why?
“What is Shaman Girl? And why is it important to make it part of my life?,” asked my friend Mo. Ah, right to the heart of the matter. Shaman Girls dance between worlds. Between the everyday and the extraordinary. The messy and the magic. The WTF? and the OMG! The...
Who Wants to be Normal Anyway?
I am giving it up, girlfriends. My desire to be normal that is. But trust me, my old frenemy Norma isn’t going without a fight. Who’s Norma? Norma has powers and abilities that I do not. She can hang out at a mall all day and not be totally over stimulated and fried...
Confessions of a Shaman Girl
Ready for a confession? Some of you already know my secret identity and have heard rumors that I’m writing a book called, yep, Shaman Girl. As soon as Shaman Boy’s back to school, my bottom is back in front of my computer making the final edits on the book. It’s funny...
