Your Mother’s Leadership
I learned a big lesson a few years ago that small irritations become greater and greater losses of power.
During the initial Zoom boom years, I used to get angsty with clients teaching or talking over Zoom.
I recall a new disorder emerging becoming part of our lexicon: Zoom fatigue.
On a call with my mentor. she was curious when I made an off-hand remark about being tired.
Mentor: What do you mean?
Me: You know, Zoom after Zoom, talking, teaching, is tiring.
Mentor: Ok, gotcha. (pause) For clarity, you're telling me that looking through a screen, which is in fact a light box, so talking into the light box at an image of a human is tiring?"
Me: (long pause because I knew I was busted) Well, now that i'm thinking about it, no (I had to be completely honest with what came next out of my mouth). It's actually all the mental gymnastics about appearing a certain way or to look a certain way and caring what other people think. That's what's tiring!
Mentor: Where? Your thoughts are tiring because you feel them in your body
Me: Yea, as I think about my next Zoom meeting, I can feel a swirly sensation in my head and shallow breath and I can actually feel some discomfort in my right scapula. And I know this to be the first symptom of an impending headache, which I've been having more of lately.
Mentor: (Long pause, head nodding)
Me: (re-evaluating my self-diagnosis, wondering how I'd fallen for it while laughing out loud)
Since then, 2021, I've retrained my body to use my 'ZF' symptoms to be a reminder to create calm and presence. Now I rarely have any ZF symptoms.
Qi leaks are redirected!
Your symptoms—whether in your body, business, or relationships—aren’t problems to fix; they’re pathways back to your deeper intelligence.
I get this comment often: "Hey, Mary, you're so peaceful".
That's not by nature, that's by design.
I teach time-tested practices from over 2,000 years of Chinese medicine, the cyclical wisdom of nature, and a lifetime of listening to what most people ignore.
This isn’t about pushing through. It’s about learning how to show up and lead from your internal clarity—your connection to nature, spirit, and your own damn senses (modern vernacular: your nervous system).
No fluff. No bypassing. Just real, embodied change.
You don’t need another surface solution.
You need a relationship with what’s already inside you.
Let’s work from that place.
NEW EVENTS: May 2025
-> A 9-month journey starting in May 2025 rooted in the ancient rhythms of Celtic and Chinese medicine—where your symptoms become a map, your senses a compass, and your connection to spirit your most reliable guide.
Through transformational conversation and practical ritual, you’ll sharpen your instinct, reclaim clarity, and return to the truth of what really matters. Due to location, registration limited to 9.
This is your Mother's leadership.
-> I'm teaming up with The Clinic NP for an in-person 4 hour women's workshop on stress, hormones in peri/menopause years in Washington DC on Friday, May 2. Due to location, registration limited to 18 women.
Curious about any of these? Let’s talk!
