Mercury Rising.
Mercury—winged messenger of the heavens, escort to the underworld—also rules writing, music, money and anything that flows. Naturally, this wily archetype is gender fluid, too, a conduit for all that goes-between…communication, exchange and magic.
Certainly Mercury governs the Flow state!
My ode to their genius is a new capsule to support your silken speed.
During our 8 weeks together working one-to-one I’ll support you in…
+Initiating a new creative project or giving new wings to an old one
+Moving into Flow through your physiology
+Establishing an effervescent new Spring routine
+Making leaps and bounds with ease, swiftly, but without force
If you’ve wanted to work together but were daunted by the price, this is the time! I’m having some sort of Crazy Eddie moment and plan to make this offer until the end of March…because I’m swept up in Mercury’s thrilling flight and I want you to be too.
DM if you’re curious to know more…

Controlled Random
I’m smitten with Rick Rubin’s new book The Creative Act, A way of Being. You? And I loved his recent interview with Dr. Andrew Huberman, during which they discussed the soothing effect of unpredictable movement within a predictable container.
That meant watching fish dart in an aquarium for Huberman, and professional wrestling for Rubin.
I’m curious to hear more examples of this de-stressing phenomenon. For me, there is nothing like the random yet relaxing act of watching our dog Rue attack her toys—a cross between Huberman and Rubin's preferences.
Kind Words
After our time together a new friend, whom I met during one of my FIFTY free calls this winter, revised her routine, made time to return to her poetry, and signed up for drum lessons after six years of procrastination. I love it!
Our conversation helped “in creating these small habits that compound to an overall better sense of self. I really appreciate how enlightened I felt. I don't think I've had someone question me to think so deeply about myself…It was another level of self-awareness. Thank you.” —Marlin
