If This Were True, Every Assistant to a Billionaire Would Be One

“You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” — Jim Rohn This is one of those quotes that gets tossed around like spiritual confetti. Usually followed by: “Surround yourself with ambitious, successful, high-performing people.” And every time I hear it, my nervous system quietly says: Absolutely not. Because here’s […]

Over 100 Marriages Started With This Tree

In a quiet forest in northern Germany stands a 500-year-old oak tree with its own mailing address—and for more than a century, people have believed it possesses the power to help lonely hearts find love. The tree is called the Bräutigamseiche, or Bridegroom’s Oak, and every day letters arrive from people searching for connection, romance, […]

Macrodose Love: Come Home to Oneness

Most of us don’t love poorly. We love… carefully. A little vulnerability. A measured truth. Just enough to feel something—not enough to risk everything. In another world, this has a name: microdosing. A subtle shift. A little more open. But not transformed. It’s a nudge. Not a breakthrough. And suddenly… the metaphor is almost too […]

The Blessings of a F*cked Up Family

Recently, at a wedding, surrounded by laughter, champagne, and the quiet choreography of family dynamics… I found myself noticing something. Not the flowers. Not the vows. Not even the dance floor drama. But the families. Because when you gather enough relatives in one place, a pattern quietly reveals itself: Almost every family has a “black […]

You’re Not Lost. You’re in Liminal Space.

Lately, I’ve been noticing that so many of my brilliant, accomplished, wise friends are unexpectedly watching their worlds upended. Their businesses are dissolving. Their identities are unraveling. The old “what worked” isn’t working anymore. And the question humming just beneath their brave smiles is: “What’s next?” If this is you… come sit by me for […]

Before You Can Be Love… Do This

There are moments on this path of “being love” when love feels… nowhere to be found. Not in your heart. Not in your thoughts. And definitely not in the way you’re speaking to yourself. You’re irritated. Contracted. Maybe even ashamed. And the idea of “just choose love” feels like spiritual nonsense. So here’s a different […]

Love in Homeopathic Doses (The Pink Kiss Experiment 💋)

Do you remember “a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down?” Lately, I’ve been practicing my own version of emotional medicine. On the days when I feel annoyed, irritated, or flat-out disgusted with someone (or something)—you know, when I’m deep in my inner “I don’t want to and you can’t make me” stance—I gently […]

The Improbability of Love — And Yet It Happens

The other day I started wondering about something. Is love… actually improbable? If you think about it statistically, the whole thing is kind of ridiculous. There are over eight billion people on this planet. Somehow two of them — often from completely different backgrounds, cities, families, and personal quirks — cross paths at just the […]

Love, Cats, Cookies… and One Big Question

When I think of the word love, my first thought is usually about a feeling. That warm, fuzzy, cozy feeling I have for someone — like my Bri. Or Banana. Or Max. (the cats!) Then there are the feelings attached to how much I love chocolate chip cookies with nuts… preferably with a side of […]

After 20 Years Teaching Love… Here’s What I See Now

For many years, my work revolved around helping people find love and keep love. Books, workshops, conversations, countless introductions — all in service of helping people discover the magic of a soulmate relationship and then build something lasting together. And I still believe deeply in that journey. But lately I’ve been reflecting on something the […]
