We are never really starting over, are we? Our do-over or new beginning stems from a rich history. I see this as I trim my spider plants that always birth baby plants. When I trim them off (the babies) and give them a soak (the roots are there), they grow bigger and better than they […]
Everyone needs a surface. This is the space that opens up creativity. When surfaces are cluttered and stacks of paper abound, pots and pans rule, unfinished projects are side by side and many opened containers of makeup, toothpaste, soap and Q-tips create a landscape, well, Genius is shut off. The mind can only hold so […]
Your space can be flexible like a rubber band that conforms to the shape it surrounds. Your space surrounds you and all of your changes. It expands and contracts with the changes you make. Are you facing an empty nest, shrinking staff, expansion of your nest and office, new opportunity, retirement? If you are losing […]
On May 27, 2011, I launched this blog with a writing on Genius. I find myself in August of 2016, writing and teaching about Genius. Welcome back to my blog! I will be fine-tuning the graphics to be consistent with my web site in the next few weeks. For now, I am republishing the first […]

There is a lot of encouragement to “get the […]
Last week I was entering my grocery store and realized that I was feeling pushed out of the space. A plethora of displays for Halloween with multitudes of candy and goblins were in my way as I maneuvered my cart towards the vegetables. I realized something. Each holiday season, as I frequent the hubs that […]
We move so much more than things when we move. We move experiences, we move love, we move our life. Monopoly games, Chutes and Ladders, photos, dishes, posters, art. We move. When we move our bodies, it is the same. We move our life. We carry our life. Our life becomes mobile. There is more. […]
You know when you bake a cake and it looks like it’s done but it’s really not? Because right below the crisp top, it’s gooey. You discover this when you give it a little nudge with your finger. Now, the rest of it is okay even the part at the bottom that sits against the […]
