The Good Energy Project Mission:
Spread as much
good energy as possible
AROUND THE WORLD
find, use, and spread their OWN good energy.
The
Good Energy Project
Vision:
That all humans are:
- Living and working in their zone of genius* by understanding and using their superpowers
- Feeling good about themselves and their ability to create a fulfilling life aligned to who they are
- Feeling less fear and more love – 1st for themselves, then life, and their fellow humans
- Learning how to live THEIR best lives, AND How to let others live THEIR OWN best life
- Feeling confident in who they are and in their ability to make enough $$ to support themselves and their families
- Feeling more connected to themselves and the world around them in a way that makes them more compassionate and empathetic
The
Good Energy Project
is Here Because:
our world is at an interesting crossroads, and we need to support one another as we navigate the most rapid changes in history in such a short period of time, and continuing to accelerate.
We feel energy from others and project our own energy out – ALL.THE.TIME.
We can all think of people we’ve known who have good energy and you feel up around them, and those who have negative energy, when we often feel down around them.
The good news – is that YOU are the ONLY one who controls your energy. NOBODY else.
If we can use more of our time each day to feel and share OUR good energy out in the world, we create a ripple effect.
About Me:
and someone who knows firsthand what it feels like to have life flip upside down in an instant.
The Short Version:
When my 20-year relationship ended just 10 weeks before the world shut down for COVID, I found myself alone Googling:
“How to not F up your kids in a divorce.”
What followed was a wild, disorienting ride through grief, learning to co-parent, ADHD realizations, trying to figure out what what “I” want now for the rest of my life – when it had been ‘We’ for so long; continuing my search for purpose and work that actually fit with who I am; navigating dating, dating apps, and new relationships in midlife. trying to stay upbeat and positive so my kids wouldn’t be so traumatized by what seemed like a sinking ship in our immediate and global lives.
Along the way, I learned I wanted to help other mid-lifers in transition, including single moms with ADHD, ride the transition roller coasters with their hands in the air — not white-knuckled — and rise from the ashes like a damn phoenix.
We are not on this planet to suffer. I’ve learned life is meant to be LIVED and enjoyed! It’s a choice – YOUR choice.
Let’s go find your good energy and have some fun!
The Full Story:
My parents were happily married for 37 years, until my dad passed at 65. I knew nothing about divorce — and looking around, I didn’t see any examples of single moms who were thriving.
What I saw – on TV and in real life – was stress, survival mode, and a lot of resentment. I knew I didn’t want that to be my story.
So I made a decision:
If I couldn’t find an example to follow, I’d become my own example.
I would choose my own adventure. I would be my own hero.
Then came COVID — and with it, a quiet I didn’t ask for, or know what to do with after not being alone for 20 years, especially as an extrovert.
Half the time I was completely alone, without my kids. So I read. I listened. I studied. I tried to understand ADHD, divorce, co-parenting, solo parenting, middle-age dating, and how to build a career that didn’t stress me out and drain the complete F-ing life out of me.
One book hit me hard: “The 5 Regrets of the Dying”. I started asking:
- What kind of life would I want to look back on from my deathbed?
- What would I regret if I didn’t change?
- What kind of mother, woman, and human did I WANT to be?
I realized I didn’t want to stay stuck in anger or resentment. I didn’t want to model bitterness to my kids.
So, I focused on what I could control: my thoughts, my energy, and my intention to create something better.
No, my story didn’t go the way I thought it would.
But once I accepted my reality — what is, not what should have been — I could start writing the next chapter. On my terms.
I wanted to show my kids what resilience looks like:
- How to find silver linings in hard moments.
- How to lead with kindness, even when it’s hard.
- How to stay curious, hopeful, and real.
(And no — we don’t nail it every day. But those are the targets.)
Now, several years into this journey, I’m proud of the humans we’re all becoming — me, my kids, and yes, even my ex (sometimes 😉). We’re learning to let things go. To laugh more. To appreciate and be grateful for everything we do have, because the universe gives us more of what we what we focus on and are grateful for.
Why I Started the
Good Energy Project
Especially those of us navigating the ups and downs of midlife, and particularly single moms with ADHD,
because that intersection is a lot and one I know well.
Looking around I also couldn’t ignore the fact that our country is undergoing some significant growing pains that come with change that is never-ceasing in life.
There is a lot of fear underneath those growing pains. Of the unknowns that come with something new and different, of losing control, and deep down a fear of being unworthy and alone.
Convincing people to change their minds about issues that have been so strongly programmed through impressive, insidious marketing would not be helpful.
But if we can look at each decision, thought, and action (ours and others) and ask -
is this 'really' spreading GOOD ENERGY or NEGATIVE ENERGY?
In our heart & soul,
we know the difference.
Fear may lead us to paths that spread negative energy, but if we shine light on the fear and just feel it for 90 seconds, it will leave you alone.
Instead of focusing on fear and the differences among us, I want to encourage people to focus on creating and spreading Good Energy in their day-to-day lives and in striving toward larger goals they have for themselves. And in the process learn how things in their life improve and their wishes, prayers, manifestations come to life.
Before this chapter of my life, I spent two decades as a consultant helping federal and state government clients solve complex problems and navigate the changes in large organizations when a major shift happens.
My job was to help clients figure out:
- Where they are now,
- Where they want to go, and
- Creating a map for how to get there — clearly, collaboratively, and strategically
In 2024, I left my consulting career to pursue a calling to help women (and men) in a similar way, but helping them in transition periods of life to define their own story, reclaim their power, and design a life that actually fits them along with a map for how to get there.
I earned my coaching certification from an ICF-accredited organization, building on decades of mentoring and coaching clients, colleagues, and friends.
None of us will ever
have all of the answers.
we prioritize and create a life that fills our good energy bucket –
so much that it spills over and spreads good energy to those around us.
