Emerging Futures Blog

Last week, I got a note from someone who was profoundly awakened by the process of putting her attention at the base of her spine…what I’ve created as the ‘White Feather’ meditation (for lack of any other recognized language). It keeps drifting in and out of my awareness, so I’m beginning to pay attention and have decided to share it here. We spend so much ... Continue Reading >>

I continue to have ‘stuff’ (technical term!) roll around inside me re these notions of emerging expressions of leadership by women. Notions of recognizing that ‘leadership’ is not an action - it's a result.

Unlike book signings or readings, these are opportunities created ... Continue Reading >>

As we engaged, it became clear to me that we will come to know each other much better. I see it in all of them – this immense desire to live fully and engage meaningfully. As I listen to them speak, behind their words I hear a ... Continue Reading >>

I’m feeling agitated today. I’ve come to learn over the years that this state of agitation – of body and mind – is often the precursor to some new insight…to some startling change in how I experience myself and subsequently, how I move through my world.
