Maybe you're curious about why people go to psychics, or what happens in readings. Sometimes readings are useful, But readings can also most definitely be wrong. It's good to know how to stay out of unnecessary codependence. I've read for people, as well as had readings myself. Some of the readings I got were totally off base, but a few were useful. Maybe this clip can be useful if...

When you hear of "personal development", what comes to mind? What does the term even mean? The self-help industry is huge but no one has clearly identified what happens with adults on their path of adult development.

What does a "conscious" and "sustainable" business mean? To many people, it brings to mind a sense of everyone being paid less, meditating every day, recycling office supplies and using green energy.

What if your biggest growth in awareness  of your purpose lies ahead of you and not behind you? The challenges facing the human species are large and complex. They demand that people hold a higher energetic and consciousness stamina. This means the ability to sit with paradoxes and nuance, rather than reaching for simplistic solutions.  The natural rate of evolution of the human race, including ou...

One of the biggest themes  in our culture that is obsessed with self-sufficiency and independence is this idea of "you are enough".  But there's a dark side to this type of thinking. It invalidates the reality that humans evolved to be in a village or community with other people. We were never meant to be totally self sufficient. It's not the most fulfilling way to relate to li...

Most people know that personal boundaries are important when engaging with other people.  Yet many people struggle with how to do boundaries well.

This is much more personal than what I usually share. But it's what's been on my mind as far as what is truly needed in the world. I see this pattern happening in many spiritual and personal development circles ("Everyone should be more high-vibe like me and then problems would resolve themselves"), and it keeps people from being able to impact the world in a more meaningful way... The world needs...

Everyone's been "ghosted" at some point. It's when someone you're in a relationship with suddenly disengages from you, and you don't know why. They don't return your phone calls or your messages. It's as if you suddenly cease to exist to them. The worst thing is not knowing why. It can be traumatic. Join me in this conversation with "Rosemary", who has devoted an entire podcast to this social phen...

A lot of the helping professions can be put into 4 basic quadrants. Most people are aware of 3 but there is 1 that is often missing that can add value if you're feeling stuck. And this one missing quadrant used to be more readily accessible in previous eras in man's history. It may be why many people feel lost today. ***** Next Spark Your Feminine Presence group: https://adelewang.lpages...

Many women find themselves attracting men they end up mothering. Whether it's on the dating scene or in more committed relationships, this dance can leave women feeling resentful, exhausted and frustrated.

By far the number one challenge my clients face in relationships is this dance between the fear of being too independent and too dependent on others. Whether someone is hyper- independent and feeling lonely or codependent and needing constant support from other people, these issues are actually opposite sides of the same coin, the dance between independence and codependence.  It also results in ei...
