Double Whammy

July 31, 2020 by Linda A Marshall 6 Comments

My Roller Coaster Week Today is July 31 … eight days since my daughter’s gynecological appointment and we still don’t have resolution. Her gynecologist noted an issue during her 2019 appointment. Because I was in the waiting room, I only heard a casual mention of it on the way home. Nicole said the doctor was […]

Silenced

July 15, 2020 by Linda A Marshall 22 Comments

Almost six months ago (January 21), I wrote “It’s a Process” about the synchronicities that led to my becoming aware of generations of trauma in my family of origin … how I came to see that I’ve been chosen to be an agent of healing for our family. I naively felt honored and enthusiastic about […]

Wisdom to Guide Me in Times Like These

May 31, 2020 by Linda A Marshall 4 Comments

It has been awhile since I have written here. Something in me senses that our pandemic is here to teach us an important lesson if we are open to learning it. And so, I have been spending time with thought leaders who have greater wisdom than I possess. I do that through reading and podcasts. […]

It’s a Process

January 21, 2020 by Linda A Marshall 14 Comments

Where do I begin? In my last post I admitted That November & December were difficult months emotionally That I was seeking guidance to move past a stuck spot … an immature place within me weighing me down That I was on the lookout for receiving wisdom and guidance from the Divine in other ways […]

Heart-felt Connections

January 1, 2020 by Linda A Marshall 24 Comments

What I have been increasingly aware of as 2019 drew to a close, is how little genuine connection I experience, especially during holidays.
