(Re)Defining Your View on Artificial Intelligence
You're likely hearing a LOT about the "threat" of Artificial Intelligence taking our jobs. The FEAR of "The Unknown" and questioning "what's next" can affect our mental health...
To SHIFT from apprehension to understanding, hope, and inspiration, I attended the "AI-Powered Women Conference" at MIT. A favorite panel, hosted by media journalist Lisa Pierpont, engaged experts in a very human and heart-centered discussion - (including my friend, Carolyn Little, a Transformational Healing Guide, ...

Better Than Botox?
As we age, we might be tempted to keep our faces "youthful." I regret starting Botox injections in my late 20s, but thankfully STOPPED in my early 40s. I do NOT want to:
- Have a NEUROTOXIN injected into my face
- Spend all that money
- Have a frozen face
So I've opted for a natural approach . . . The results are subtle - narrowed face, brightened skin, relaxed neck . . . (but best of all, ZERO botox ;)
While several things have worked in conjunction... there's ONE PRACTICE (I've done dail...

The Let Them Theory - by Mel Robbins
"You've wasted so many years being so consumed with other people, their feelings, their thoughts, and what they're doing.
So let this book be your wake-up call:
You are in charge. This realization is not a condemnation, it's a liberation."
-Mel Robbins
When Oprah interviewed author Mel Robbins, and proclaimed that her book, The Let Them Theory is "BY FAR, one of the BEST self-help books" she ever read, I:
- Purchased it immediately
- Read it within a week - (up 'til 2am several nigh...
Girl Scout Cookies - Yay 🎉 or Nay? 👎
It may have taken 35 years, but the FDA (finally) banned Red Dye #3. This has me thinking about what's possible for Girl Scout Cookies - which my daughter's Daisy troop is encouraging them to sell. Of course I had mixed feelings:
- Concern - that Girl Scouts are promoting ultra processed food
- Craving - (cookies are regrettably my favorite vice)
- Support - of my daughter's learning through an entrepreneurial experience
With these contradicting emotions, I posted London's Cookie Sales Page ...
Clear Your Digestive System
If your digestive system is sluggish, you may want to look deeper . . . [Disclaimer: This is not medical advice, and you’re encouraged to consult your medical care team if needed.]
I just finished a [doctor prescribed] medical diet.
I could not eat food for TWENTY days!
Instead, I drank a liquid “Elemental Diet” and herbal tea. Forgoing food felt extreme - but thankfully was worth it. Most importantly - clearing internal symptoms:
- Bloat
- Inflammation
- Fatigue
- Brain fog
- Inability...
