As I was driving home from my dance class this morning I was behind a car with the bumper sticker which read:
Behind every Successful Woman is Herself. And let me add: behind EVERY woman (no matter her perceived status) is HERSELF.

As a self- employed entrepreneur and writer every waking moment is a confrontation and conversation with myself. Inside of myself are many different voices, each vying to be the main voice, the boss. If on nay certain day the boss is task-oriented there is no limit to what I can accomplish. If the voice that wins out is the sloth well it’s all down hill from there. When I study the lives of super successful people I am always awed by their drive and ambition. Sometimes I tap into some of that but I have to say there is not a huge well of that in me. The trick to success, as I see it, is to tap into what you do have in abundance and use that to propel you forward towards whatever goals seem interesting and fulfilling to you. To thine own self be true and all that.

If you are drawn to being an entrepreneur, a business owner,  what a path of challenge that is! If you are more the visionary and lees the implementer,  it can seem that nothing ever gets done! Learn your strengths and delegate everything else is the most  important distinction to make or you’ll find yourself going slowly and surely stark-raving mad. I can vouch for that myself.

Check out the amazing entrepreneurs I have interviewed on my talk show, Priestess Entrepreneur: Kitchen Table Conversations.
Each and every one of those women is an inspiration and boldly courageous. Check out an interview (they are all available online by clicking on the link in the blogposts and on the GUESTS page). See you there at http://PriestessTV.com

I was watching Jim Hensen’s The Dark Crystal the other day and I was taken by the core message of unity. When one of the fearful, bullying Skeskies bled or died, so did one of the gentle, wise Mystics. Just because one group was nasty and the other loving did not
alter or change the basic connection of all things and all beings. I think this is a particularly challenging concept for us to accept what general mentality of separation, fear, and competition for resources. Sharing is nice, right?  Sure, until we feel threatened or vulnerable and then the human tendency seems to be to retreat into our separate corners, which frankly, does not work all that well.

I was outside Whole Foods yesterday where there were 2 dogs tied up and waiting for their persons. Somehow the leash got bound and was tangled around one of their legs. They both were freaking out. I walked over and got the one’s led untangled. When I came out of the store they both were sitting peacefully, now calm and relaxed. I nodded to them and the one thanked me with a nod and a chirpy bark. I said “You’re quite welcome”, grateful for those who have helped to untangle me. Every time you are offered an opportunity to untangle some mess, no matter how small, you are adding to the healing of all of us. In the Jewish tradition we call it Tikkun Olam, repairing the world. No repair goes unnoticed. Every stitch of mending is needed. Every single stitch.

This week on Priestess Entrepreneur: Kitchen Table Conversations I interview Kate Heartsong,  visionary author and channel of the unifying principle of Oneness. In her new book Deeply We Are One Kate addresses this most challenging concept of Oneness in a way that is meaningful and simple to grasp.

You can hear our uplifting and inspiring chat on Comcast Channel 22 tonight (Thursday) at 6 p.m. and Saturday at 11a.m.
