My work with Johanna took me places I never imagined I’d go and much faster than I ever thought possible. With her insight and compassion, she helped me learn how to love myself deeply. As a result, I have let go of unhealthy patterns with my ex-husband and have attracted my life partner, just as I intended and a full two months before the "deadline" I'd set for myself! Our work together has been life-altering in a powerful, transformative and empowering way. I am now ready to live the life of my dreams!
I’ve been thinking about archetypes in relationships a lot lately, mostly because I’ve been witnessing some interesting dynamics play out with friends and clients.

This recipe is ridiculously easy and inexpensive, but looks impressive.
I call it Shrimp and Spinach a la Vodka
Ingredients:
1 box of pasta (I like penne or bowtie)
8-12 oz of spinach (you can substitute asparagus or another veggie)
1 lb shrimp, de-veined and raw (you can substitute cubed chicken or tofu if you don’t like shrimp)
1 jar of Italian pink vodka sauce (I like Newman’s Own)
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt, pepper and minced garlic to taste
Basil and/or parmesan cheese for garnish
Cook pasta according to directions.
As the pasta cooks, warm olive oil in a saute pan and add the shrimp. Cook for 2-3 minutes* on med-high, then add vodka sauce and spinach. Cook until the sauce is hot, spinach is slightly wilted and shrimp is cooked through (about 5-6 minutes).
Drain pasta and place in in a large bowl, adding sauce mixture on top. Toss and serve. Garnish as desired.
*chicken needs to be cooked longer, at least 6-8 minutes (depending on size) before adding sauce
Yummy and impressive! For best results, use large or extra large shrimp.
It’s no secret that times are tough. I just heard that we’re heading toward continued slow times, but no double dip recession. I’m not sure that’s all such reassuring news; I think the average person is still experiencing life as financially austere. Continue reading »
I’ve just landed in Hawai’i after a week long drive from Massachusetts to California. My husband and I each drove our cars and shipped them to Hawaii from Oakland. It was a trip we’d planned for months, and then totally threw the plan book out the window as we moved closer to the end of the year. Continue reading »
There are many reasons we get into relationships, and the real reason is almost never what we think it is. Instead, we feel a sexual attraction, we find that we have some things in common with the object of of our attraction, and we end up in a relationship. Continue reading »
