D- thank you for your thoughtful questions.

Italy can teach America {us, Americani} to slow down. Rome wasn't built in a day, as they say. What's the hurry? Practice, patience and perseverance. Wisdom from our elders. Italy can teach America to spend more time at the table: eating good food, being in conversation, enjoying the most basic essence of our everyday life- a way to nourish ourselves body, mind & spirit.

My form of genius is how I see the world - aesthetic arrest is what I hope I can offer.

3 books that rocked my world:
- The Soul of Rumi by Coleman Barks. Soothed my soul. Saved my life.
- Reflections on the Art of Living edited by Diane Olsen. Essays from Joseph Campbell's Esalen teachings. 1987 PBS series led me here...
- The Sacred Path of the Warrior- Chogyam Trungpa. Chapter Four: fearlessness. Mirror, mirror....

My bank account balance keeps me up at night {or up early in the morning is more like it!} Can I cover the bills?! Tough times for a time.
Dreams and inspiration awaken me from my slumber. Sacred hour where the magic unfolds.

I wish to grant one {any ONE and every ONE} the chance to truly know their greatness and beauty.

Bonus Q:
Ideas come from everyday experiences. What I read, where I travel, who I meet. 3 am early morning musings. Sacred Sunday writing. Gifts of grace generously offered. Creative collaboration.

Ok, here's the thing, I really relate to Danielle and I'm often living my purpose, but then fear gets in the way and I sometimes go back to not living my purpose... how do you sustain your life purpose, when you worry or you feel fearful etc???? This is the question of the ages................
Also, how to manage all the different careers and stuff in your life?
