Authenticity is a Big buzzword these days and what I’ve been seeing is most people don’t really get what it means. They are using it and at the same time trying to fit in by doing what other people are doing and left feeling disconnected to themselves. I know because this happened to me. It’s [...]

I’ll bet that nearly every Conscious Diva looks for and attracts the most authentic people. Don’t we all want the real deal, the honest girl who doesn’t hold back her true nature, a woman who stands in the power of who she really is? The definition of the word authentic includes being genuine, real, and [...]

“A lover simply is love. He or she has become that.” ~Rumi I was at brunch the other day with a good friend. She was telling me about her blind date the evening before. “It was okay, whatever,” she says with a faint sigh. “It was like talking to a stranger for two hours.” I [...]

Are you familiar with the musical Les Miserables? Growing up just outside New York City, I must have seen it on-stage at least a dozen times. As a teenager, the character I most identified with was Eponine whose identity of deep aloneness was captured in her soul-wrenching solo “On My Own.” For kicks, I sometimes [...]

This is the Year of the Dragon. I’m rather partial to dragons myself. Because I teach preschool ballet, I’ve seen some pretty mean-looking dragons in my time. Three-year-olds have terrifyingly fantastic imaginations, so the dragons in our studio are fairly frightening creatures. They are enormous and ugly – and I mean shiver-in-your-satin-slippers-ugly. And boy, are they [...]
