Personal Growth Partnership – This is possibly what others may prefer to call coaching. I only make the distinction because I view coaching as a slightly different approach and I’m just that technical sometimes. Coaching feels less “joined with” and more like an endeavor with someone standing on the sidelines (I’d say some “coaches” are personal growth partners but that’s me.). As a highly intuitive soul, I merge pretty thoroughly spiritually with the people I encounter and it truly becomes a personal growth partnership because I’m changed too. And it’s deeply personal. In such a partnership, growth occurs in every area of life so the distinction as to the areas of life I would “coach” is useless here. This is about growth at the core, spreading into every field of expression one life is and can be. This program of personal growth partnership is under construction. In the meantime, if this is enough to arouse your interest, get in touch at yellowdressproductioninc@yahoo.com. My rates are reasonable and flexible as are the modes of communication.
What is “personal growth?” Personal growth is a process of …
growing away from reactionary living and into an abiding awareness,
growing from deeply felt, soulful fields cultivated in love and authenticity,
growing into more personal expressions of self,
infusing every role in such a way as to rid them of their sense of burdensome duty,
growing in personal inspiration and sinking roots deeply into powerfully felt, articulated truths.
Personal growth is a process of …
distinguishing what your will is beyond compulsion,
beyond anxiety,
beyond restrictive, false impressions
and of strengthening the true self in order to establish a flowing, dynamic and visionary richness of living.
Writing Services – In spite of the blog-style, my capacity to write actual articles does exist. I’m currently writing a book I plan to complete by the end of the year so my services are limited but get in touch if you have an interest in my contribution to your own world of expression. I obviously focus on personal growth, the ups and downs of religious confusion and the exodus out of Christianity, the demands of parenting, sexuality, spirituality, the dynamics of the highly felt life, love and love’s conspiracies as well as the sorrows we all go through at times. Poetry, too. I’m happy to contribute to other blogs with appropriate references as well as any other medium focused on any of these subjects. I also currently work with Kate Holgate of Alliance for Success (If you’re interested in booking any of her public speakers, you can contact me or her wonderful organization.). Get in touch: yellowdressproductionsinc@yahoo.com
Shamanic and Energy Healing – I’m currently trained in soul retrievals and integration as well as ancestral line clearing and shapeshifting. This encompasses the capacity to train others in the same practices (with the beginning prerequisite of spirit journeying and introduction to one’s power animals). The shamanic path is one I take as a deeply personal and extremely private experience. So, there are few references to it beyond the occasional mention. But I am more than willing to work with any woman who can take the time and work through the processes of growth involved in what can be a very demanding journey.
A note to skeptics: Me too. I am still a skeptical “believer” but these healing modes continue to mock my skepticism and flow through me with almost gleeful efficacy and life-altering wonder. Reiki is so effective it still shocks me. I do not pretend to have all the answers and am still learning much. I stepped into shamanic work out of sheer desperation in an attempt to find a way to manage my unasked-for ability to know things ahead of time, prevalent in my life since the age of 10. Precognitive skill is not the ego-wonder some believe it to be. My contact with Maryphyllis Horn saved my sanity. Knowing major global disasters are going to occur and cannot be prevented is not a picnic. Shamanic work is a must in my life.
Pointillism – I don’t like to call myself an artist because I’m anal about the definition, the meaning, the training, the “forgetting” of training and the emergence of the intuitive work. But many insist that’s what I am. I do dots. They flow through me and out the fingers onto watercolor paper. Or wood. Or walls. Or, if I’m in class, on the closest piece of paper I can find. My website is still under construction and may be nixed for the blog that currently has a few of my very humble pieces on them: The Accidental Pointillist. Trees. I’m in love with trees and flowers and these are the things that generally spill from my hands. If you’d like to order a print or commission me for one (This means you commission me to do what I do, I don’t do prescribed pieces.), I can be reached here: yellowdressproductionsinc@yahoo.com
Public Speaking – rarely…but maybe more in 10 years…

What qualifies me? I don’t have the letters after my name yet, but I’m working on it. (Psychology) In the meantime, I do have the history and level of self-cultivation to assist people from all walks of life and every level of education.
For whatever reason, life wired me to be intensely concerned with personhood and authenticity, with self-development and integrity of purpose. I was concerned with what makes people real vs. fake, mislead vs. aware from a very young age (pre-teens), writing poetry, keeping journals of my own volition, reading books well beyond my age and trying to help people (when I really just needed to be free to be a child!) struggling with self. Part of this was due to an unconscious force in my soul conspiring to bring me to deeper levels of authenticity and out of reactionary living. My websites and my writing reveal my level of comprehension. Get in touch, we can arrange a conversation and you can decide. I even have a trial-offer. It’s all good…



[...] So, while the words of Tom Petty and Michael W. Campbell in the song “Refugee” are true to an extent, they are not always true and it’s exactly that process of healing and growth that Religion’s Refugees seeks to address. This is a learning venture, not the work of an anthropologist or officially recognized expert (but I’m working on it). My life has given me a unique perspective not typical of most. The efforts I’ve made to understand the processes of growth and recovery from toxic religious influences afford me an effective edge in outreach and personal growth partnership. [...]
