4 Ways To Help A Friend In Crisis

I just said goodbye to my parents. They drove completely unexpectedly 9 hours straight down to my home to be with me in my time of need. They stayed a full week, took care of my children and I with love, humor, devotion and loyalty.   I love my parents so much. They are a shining example of what a strong, 45+ year marriage can be and a beacon of light in a very troubling time in my own life.     A strong long term marriage is something I’m so appreciative that my parents can model for my own […]

One of the best tools in my toolbelt…

  On Monday I had a wonderful guest give some great tips on reducing anxiety and taking charge over anxiety. I struggled with extreme anxiety as a child and a young adult, and feeling like I have loosened the grips of anxiety over my life makes me feel so free. But recently, as I was preparing for my role in filming The Grounded and traveling down to interview two moon walking astronauts… well, I was pretty nervous. I’ll admit it, very very very nervous.   Trouble sleeping, knot in my stomach, insecure about everything from what I look like to

How To Get The Best of Yeast

Yeast overgrowth is absolutely no fun. And it can really get worse in the warmer months as yeast love nothing more then moist, hot, sticky skin/mucosa to flourish on. I remember seeing a sweet older female patient that was absolutely miserable with Candida growth all over her skin… and it was particularly bad underneath her breasts where they touched her upper abdomen. Being that it was a particularly hot summer, she was hot and itchy and in her own personal hell! I was a bit more conventional back then, so I’m especially thinking of her as I type up this
