Six years ago, at the age of 46, I began studying internal martial arts. My maternal grandmother also practiced taiji sword. She learned these from her father.
I never imagined I’d train in these same arts. Feels good to stand at the frontier of something she also deeply loved.

Happy international women’s day! In celebration, I am donating to organizations helping to protect and care for Mother Earth. (I chose Sierra Club and National Parks Conservation Association!).

True leadership comes not from domination and control, but from attunement to natural rhythms, deep respect for interconnectedness,
and embracing a more humble, spacious approach to guiding ourselves and others.
