Does a harsh inner critic constantly tell you what you could have done better or should have done differently? Has it pummeled you into believing you need to wait until you can 'get it right' while telling you it's never good enough? A practice of compassion and self-forgiveness can tame that critic and give you a greater chance at living a fulfilling, luscious life. To connect with Kamala for a s...

Thomas Merton wrote "I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end…"   In these uncertain times, we may feel fearful or frustrated or even lost. We may feel despair or bitterness. Rather than stay in those dark places, may we bow our hearts in faith, knowing we're not alone. Remembering that "this, too, shall pass."

What would you do if you knew you were set free from all your old limiting beliefs, all the old rules you've lived by - even though they kept you shackled and small?  What if you were able to trust the inner voice that has been telling you that you're meant for more? What if the crazy times we're living in presented you with an opportunity to make changes you didn't think were possible - and you t...

Have you sought out "the facts," only to find so many conflicting reports, your head is spinning? Or finding your primary sources of info are actually far more biased than you realized?

Many women were raised to be good girls, nice and polite. Expressing anger was not acceptable and it was stuffed down, often leading to depression. In this episode, Kamala shares about a recent bout of anger she experienced and the gifts and lessons it provided. Have you experienced pent up anger? Could it be bearing lessons for you?

"Don't it always seem to go, you don't know what you've got til it's gone." We women, especially women in their late 50's to mid-60's, are entering a time when our looks are changing, seemingly overnight - and we may not be quite prepared. These changes can feel like a loss and we may need to grieve that loss. But all is not completely lost - and we can love and appreciate the looks, the body, we...

How do we manage to rise up and find meaning In this crazy, difficult, and tumultuous world? Originally written in another time of upheaval, the Paradoxical Commandments offer ways to become the changes we wish to see. Simple, yet challenging, these commandments call us to live as our higher selves. Which ones are calling to you?

The last several months have shown us that we humans really don't have the control over life that we'd thought we had. We may be the master of our fate, until a tiny virus comes along and changes everything. Suddenly, we're no longer in charge; our anger, frustration, and fear are likely to flare up, creating other waves revealing our lack of control. A key to finding serenity? Taking this world a...

In this episode, Kamala speaks with Dr. Rhoberta Shaler, author of sixteen books, and host of the podcast, Save Your Sanity: Help for Toxic Relationships.

Fathers are a little girl's first love. For better or worse, they mold how their daughters see themselves, their confidence and abilities. In this episode, Kamala shares about her experiences with her father - from adoration to bitterness, a dysfunctional push-pull: desire for Daddy's approval, while resenting his constant disapproval. And a hurtful decision to prove him right - to everyone's detr...

If you were raised to be a good girl, you probably heard "everybody makes mistakes" but your experience was that you were supposed to be practically perfect! You didn't have leeway to make messes or just experiment and see what happens. Even as an adult, you may so dread making public mistakes that you hold back from trying new things. But, you can't move mountains if you aren't willing to flub up...

"Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional." Recently, we've witnessed a murder of a black man at the hands of a person who was sworn to protect and serve. We are shocked and outraged. Bottled up anger, fear, frustration and pain have been uncorked, and we are suffering. In this episode, Kamala brings through a transmission to soothe that suffering, while allowing for the fire in the belly to keep...

Do you struggle with self-love and self-appreciation? Many women do! Often this stems from childhood wounds - not feeling you'd been really seen, heard, or valued. An aspect of that small child is still alive in you, still craving love and attention, still craving the recognition that she's real, that she matters. What if you could give that part of you more of the love she so desperately wanted -...

What woman doesn't want to be thought of as being beautiful in some way? For Baby Boomer women, steeped in a culture of women's value being equated with her beauty, and movies of beautiful Disney princesses (and evil stepmothers), aging and fading looks can hit us hard. We may "know better" but part of our identity may be tied up with having been considered young and pretty. Superficial though it...

What if Snow White's "evil" stepmother was just a perimenopausal woman grieving her fading beauty? Society puts a heavy emphasis on beauty for women. So, naturally, how we look becomes a part of our identity. As we age, and we're no longer "young and pretty," it can be a blow to our ego, a loss of how we've seen ourselves. It's a first world problem, for sure, but can be tough for many women. We c...

Mother's Day may trigger some deep emotions about your relationship with your mother. Many of us experienced some wounding with our mothers - from over-involvement to too little. History reveals that this wounding has gone on for generations - women. Today, we have more choices and ability to heal for ourselves and our entire lineage.

As the Shelter in Place orders are lifted or loosened, how will you emerge? Has the time spent at home increased your awareness of an inner voice inviting you to live differently, to live more fully? Maybe move some old mountains that have been in your way?
