Light Makers, I finally did it. Made a podcast. This was creatively edgy for me. Because it’s… just me… sitting in my podcast closet (it really is a closet), waxing philosophical for about an hour. There was a distinctly different feel about this creative venture like feeling EXPOSED. But, deep breath and a great back beat, thanks to my friends DJ Drez + Marti Nikko, and here we go!

The LIGHT WORK series will unfold over six episodes. These are girlfriend-style sermons on serving the world while staying sane, cosmic connectedness over tech addiction, self compassion and more fulfilling friendships. Poetry. Hilarity. Peeks into the personal. The podcast—and my upcoming LIGHTER year-long “Soul support” program—is intimate with plenty of esoteric talk.
How can you feel more lit up, closer to what matters without losing your edge? Tune in for poetic and often hilarious straight-talk on self-realization.
EPISODE #1: Friends, Lovers, and Therapy
AVAILABLE NOW
I asked about a zillion people what they wanted more of in their lives. The #1 craving, by far: more fulfilling FRIENDSHIPS. We’re connection starved, we know this. Let me give you a peek into my own circle. In this first episode of LIGHT WORK, I use my own friends as how-to examples for creating radical support and sweetness in your life.
Listen to Episode #1 on iTunes, Spotify, or Stitcher.
EPISODE #2: The Upside of Suffering… sort of
AVAILABLE NOW
No tip-toeing in this episode. I deep dive into the unfathomable, beautiful lessons we may learn from pain… without falling for the New Age speak that would have us gloss over real suffering. Also in this ep: how to keep moving your life forward, when the day-to-day takes everything out of you.
Listen to Episode #2 on iTunes, Spotify, or Stitcher.
EPISODE #3: The service of joy, especially in these times
AVAILABLE NOW
I’ve talked to rabbis, priests, monks, and people I consider to be high esoteric practitioners. I’ve figured out a few things about joy: where it comes from; how to follow it; and how to live in joy without feeling like you’re betraying your (or anyone else’s pain). Tune in.

Love your podcasts with a side of journaling? Yeah, me too.
I’ve got an inquiry exercise for you. It’s meant to be a warm up for my program LIGHTER, but even if you’re not doing LIGHTER, you should give it a go.
The questions are based on the 8 life areas: Deeper Devotion (to self and Spirit), Fulfilling Friendships, Right Relationship with Technology, Time Harmony, Sacred Activism, Conscious Consumption, Nutrition Awareness, and Quality Sleep. All the things that so many of us are craving, so very deeply.
Do what feels Lighter… and less of everything else. Download Tracking the Light here.
I want to go deep into this conversation about creating Fulfilling Friendships. I’ve got lots to say about engaged listening, self respect, breaking up (when necessary), and celebrating our friend-loves. I’ve also got plenty of opinions and practices for self-compassion, deep spiritual devotion, healthier relationships with our damn phones, and better quality sleep. So… LIGHTER, a year-long soul support program. This is 12 months of heart-mind nourishment. 12 months of intentionality. 12 months of connection and taking loving action—for yourself, your kin, humanity, and Mother Earth. Plus a few surprises.
At the core, LIGHTER is about drawing in more sacred, more sanity… and less of everything else. My fervent prayer is that by the end of the year we’ll have gotten the fuck off our phones to:
… be in Deeper Devotion with Self and with Spirit;
… have more Fulfilling Friendships; and
… celebrate ourselves for practicing the new load-lightening habits that we’ve wanted to cultivate for, everrr.
It starts in May 2018. Everything about it lives HERE, with more info being added as we get closer. My people, you are heartbreakingly beautiful. Go do right by Love. Do the Light Work.
I’ve talked to rabbis, and priests, and monks, and people who I consider to be high esoteric practitioners. I’ve figured out a few things about joy… and I’ve woven them into this week’s episode of LIGHT WORK.
I’ve struggled for a long time with wondering if pain and suffering were essential to growth. Are they essential to me being a more expanded, clear minded, loving, joyous, sexy human being? Do I have to hurt to get there? Well, I fucking hope not… but I haven’t figured out a way around suffering yet.
You see, there is suffering in the sensitivity. It hurts to feel. And we’re raised to strive—to desensitize—and it’s killing us. I think the strength is in opening. That opening to feel is where resiliency is born.

Popularity isn’t always true power. Money isn’t always success. Experience does not guarantee wisdom. Question it all. And do not doubt the wisdom of your rage.
There are still some basic good manners that should prevail no matter our generation, station, or affiliation. Here’s what it might mean to be classy, kind, and considerate whenever you are able (and we are almost always able).
The LIGHT WORK series will unfold over six episodes. These are girlfriend-style sermons on serving the world while staying sane, cosmic connectedness over tech addiction, self compassion and more fulfilling friendships. Poetry. Hilarity. Peeks into the personal.
Update for my peoples: Clarity on my new thing. It has a name. And you may want to make some space for it.
…to the dark, the spacious, the sweet, the jaded, the women who live as certain as light rays,
who renovate broken boardrooms and policies with justified anger and overwhelming Love —
Love of inclusion, of ecology, of bone solid Truth — Love of Love.
