A few years ago, it was my turn to fix Thanksgiving dinner for the family. We had 15 people coming, so we’d cleaned the house, set the table and put out snacks for appetizers. There was just one little detail I forgot: to allow enough time for the turkey to thaw before putting it in…
My copies of Let Your Spirit Guides Speak came this morning, which makes this one of those days that authors live for. Opening the box of author copies, holding the book in your hand for the first time—and hoping you don’t see a typo when you open to a random page—there’s always that question: What…
I’m SO happy about the timing of this book. The world around us keeps getting noisier and more complex…which means you’re probably craving a quiet voice of wisdom and reason.

I’m a big fan of this website because it has “channels” for all different religious and spiritual beliefs. That means you can read multiple perspectives and find blogs that support and challenge you. I love the fact that it respects all different…
In the past few days, I’m guessing millions of people around the world have thought about the ways they’ve been impacted by author and speaker Wayne Dyer, who passed on over the weekend at the age of 75.
