When growing up, I always thought the July 4^th fireworks were in celebration of my birthday, even though it’s the day before. Being an “almost July 4^th baby," I have always had a strong affinity for Thomas Jefferson's love of gardening and archiecture and declaring independence. But while my mother raised me to be an independent woman, neither of us really knew what that meant. It has taken me almost 43 years to discover the true meaning.

If you discovered you had a natural talent that energizes you, while simultaneously inspiring and empowering other people, you’d embrace it, right? What if your friends and family considered it “odd,” or even “evil?"  I, quite accidentally, discovered that I am a natural astrologer. A little over a year ago, a woman I then worked with offered to look at my astrological chart. I knew next to nothing about astrology, other than I was an “Aquarius” because I was born on February 4. 

It All Started…

My students and clients want a plan. "What would you love to do in this moment?" I ask them.  I know what some want to do in that moment. They want to find a career coach with a plan.
