Return to Happy

This past September I left my marriage.  The choice was neither hasty nor easy.  My husband is a remarkable man and I love him deeply.  Yet, I believe being authentically happy within the context of our marriage was not possible for either of us.

Since moving out of our apartment in July, I have slept in 33 different places across four different states.  This nomadic lifestyle was not planned; it just sort of happened that way.

It probably goes without saying that these past months overflowed with intense and opposing emotions, deeply insightful connections, and hit-me-over-the-head realizations.  Never could I have envisioned the sheer quantity and massive value of the lessons that awaited me.  And I have no doubt the gifts will keep on coming my way as I continue to step forward.

During the 33-stop odyssey, my husband and our dog moved out-of-state.  I recently returned to the living space we once shared.  Talk about surreal.  It took a few weeks of staring blankly at the half-stripped walls before any speck of normalcy entered my world.

While recognizing there is plenty of healing left to be done, I feel equipped to begin creating the next phase of my life.  Under the premise that sharing with others is fundamental to creating experience, I want to share my intentions with you.

Looking toward tomorrow while embodying these passions today, I am:

My mission remains the same: To support women to be authentically happy through creating work they love.

As I gained clarity around these intentions while allowing the experiences from the past months to absorb, something magical began to surface.  I promise to disclose what I am creating as the creation occurs, but for now, the general idea is this...

Over the next five months, I am compiling a team and creating a project with global reach that aligns my passion-based intentions with my mission.  Many of the current key players and structures reside on the West Coast.

Never being one to turn down another odyssey, I am packing my car and driving to Santa Monica, CA this week, where I plan to live at least until we launch this never-done-before venture.  And hopefully I will be able to share my journey west with you in real-time, via videos and blogging.

To my much-loved private clients - our work together these past few months has been a key source of strength and inspiration.  And fear not - our partnership will not be adversely affected.  To the contrary, as you might have guessed, you should prepare to kick it up another notch.  You are doing such amazing things, being such amazing creatures of creation, and there is no way in hell I am letting you do anything but continue moving forward!!  :)
