Two-Part Workshop: Surviving Technology – Creating Spiritual and Energetic Safety
Who thought surviving technology would be a cultural crisis? In the early days of this thing that we call the World Wide Web, I was deep into my most committed and intense period of mental, emotional, spiritual, and energetic awareness and development. To be fully transparent, I couldn't do much outside of my work at the Urban League: meditation, Reiki, meals, and sleep. I remember booting up my first white MacBook.

You Can’t Change Anyone — You Can Only Make Them Think
We can't change anyone who doesn't want or isn't ready to change. While I was still doing drugs and drinking alcohol, many people wanted me to change. They needed me to change.
When I got sober in 1989, I often heard a woman named Claire share, "I didn't see the light. My ass was dragging, and I felt the heat"! This was me.

"When I used to consume alcohol and drugs, everything in my life was messy. My bedroom was messy. My refrigerator was messy. My bathroom was messy. My laundry was messy. My car was messy. My relationships were messy. My legal situation was messy. My finances were messy. My friendships were messy. My mind was messy. My body was messy. If I got involved, it would be messy."
