How can coaching help? How do I help?
I've been asked this question a lot.

I get asked a lot,
“What do you mean when you say that we see different realities, different worlds?”;

Well, there’s a psychological expla...

Unlike many others,
I’m not a “you can manifest reality” kind of guy.
Oh, no.
Don’t even get me started about that.
But there is one thing you DO create all the time, consciously and unconsciously, and that is ...

The most important elections of your life happen inside your head.
Every. Single. Moment.
I’m not saying that the elections for president/prime minister are not important. But the more important question, perhaps the most ...

What if there was a way for you to make it easier for your loved ones to forgive you?

So - I ...

The most important day in the Jewish tradition is both beautiful and terrible.
It is also a great example of why I chose a spiritual path over a religious path -
and why I can never relate to any religious narrative (Je...

Every now and then, I feel like my heart is bleeding.
It’s usually because I get in touch with the deeper layers of my core wounds and the existential pain - the pain that comes with being alive.
Some days are like this.

560 fires. At the same time.
California is burning.
Over 1,000,000 acres have already burned in 1 week.
How big is that?
It’s like ⅕ of the grand canyon burning on fire.
It’s like the entire island of Maui, Hawaii, burn...

Pain and suffering are a serious issue.
But sometimes the best way to learn - and to remember - how to deal with it all,

Life is full of challenging times.
That, in and of itself, is out of our control.
It’s an inevitable part of living; it’s part of the deal.

Oh, relationships…
(romantic and other)
They can be both the best and the hardest, can't they?
If you just said yes-

If you said no…
especially if the ‘no’ was about it being the ha...

“Once you have recognized that there are other realities,
