    In keeping up with my journey and my positive blog theme (April 1 ! The A-Z challenge is right around the corner!) I felt this loved+blessed® subscription box was just what I was looking for. While I love my Ipsy and Graze boxes, I really wanted to try something that…

  • Conscious Uncoupling : Unraveling – Step Four

    March 25, 2016August 25, 2016 Book Reviews, Personal

    The divorce is still in limbo. We are still waiting for the judge to give us a court date. To say it’s dragging is an understatement. I also wish I had some good news for you guys. It would appear that we’ve hit a bit of a snag…

    I’ve never really been a fan of makeup.  *shocking* Wait, let me rephrase that. I’ve always been a fan of makeup, I just never really liked to take the time to put it on, even though it made me look better. I spent my life perfecting the simple…

    In my post about the lost of my life-long friend , Stephanie, I mentioned how I wanted to pay it forward somehow. Sort of a way for her kindness legacy to live on. One of the things that was such a constant in my life was the steady flow…

    Yes, it’s February.  Yes, my title says January. *frown face* I’m a little behind. The last few weeks have been a struggle for me. I am still trying to handle the loss of my life-long best friend and going through the emotions of divorce; which hasn’t been easy. I…

“She was a gypsy, as soon as you unravelled the many layers to her wild spirit she was on her next quest to discover her magic. She was relentless like that, the woman didn't need no body but an open road, a pen and a couple of sunsets.”

Magical Thinking vs. Strategic Action: The Libby B Magical Thinking vs. Strategic Action: The Libby Boycott

Witches, we know the power of intention. We know that energy flows where attention goes. But we also know that effective magic requires understanding the systems we're working within.

The book community is calling to boycott Libby over AI content. I understand the impulse—I share the concern. But this is a moment for strategic witchcraft, not reactionary hexes.

Here's the uncomfortable truth: Boycotting Libby curses libraries, not AI publishers.

Libraries are already under siege—budget cuts, book bans, political attacks. They get funding based on usage statistics. When we stop using Libby, we're literally handing ammunition to people who want libraries defunded and closed.
Every digital checkout is a data point proving libraries matter. It's a protection spell for institutions that serve our communities.

The Real Target:
Publishers who create AI content without disclosure
Platforms that don't require transparency
Systems that devalue human creativity
Legislators who won't protect creator rights

Intentional Action Over Impulsive Reaction:
Instead of boycotting, I'm:
📧 Contacting OverDrive demanding clear AI labeling
🏛️ Attending my library board meeting (Feb 15—it's on my calendar)
🌙 Joining Friends of the Library to amplify community voice
💰 Supporting authors directly through purchases & reviews
📚 CONTINUING to use Libby—228 audiobooks last year proved digital access matters
Libby also serves disabled witches, rural practitioners, people without transportation, anyone needing access outside library hours. A boycott doesn't just hurt a corporation—it harms our most vulnerable community members.

Our outer actions should reflect our inner values. I value libraries as sacred community spaces. I value accessibility. I value strategic action over performative gestures.
I can use Libby AND fight for transparency. I can support libraries AND advocate for authors. The universe isn't either/or—it's both/and.
What intentional action will you take? Drop it in the comments. Let's manifest real change together.

I’m Not Deleting or Discontinuing Use of the GoodR I’m Not Deleting or Discontinuing Use of the GoodReads App and Here’s Why

There's a lot of talk lately about deleting GoodReads. I get it. The frustration is real, and the reasons are valid. Yes, it's owned by Amazon. Yes, Jeff Bezos is a billionaire whose wealth and influence raise legitimate concerns. Yes, he supports the current administration—an administration that's cutting funding to public libraries, the very institutions that democratize access to books and literacy. Yes, all of this is deeply problematic....

The E-Reader Research Rabbit Hole That Led Me on t The E-Reader Research Rabbit Hole That Led Me on the Path to Digital Minimalism

How my quest for the perfect reading device became an unexpected lesson in choosing less. Just two weeks ago, I published my commitment to going analog in 2026 - screen-free mornings, physical books, one analog day per week, and an Analog Bag (what I have always called a House  Bag) filled with journals and coloring books. I wrote about reclaiming presence, about stepping away from the constant digital noise, about remembering what it feels like to engage with the world through touch and paper and real, tangible things....

The Magic of Going Analog: My 2026 Intention for S The Magic of Going Analog: My 2026 Intention for Slower Living

The notification pings started before my eyes fully opened. Email alerts, social media updates, text messages, all demanding immediate attention before I had even taken my first conscious breath of the day. My phone had become an extension of my hand, a digital umbilical cord tethering me to a world that never stopped moving. As someone who has built a career in digital business management and spends hours crafting content across multiple platforms, I realized I had become a stranger to stillness. The irony was not lost on me that while creating content about magical living and intentional wellness, I was living anything but a magical or intentional life....

The GLP-1 Affordability Crisis: How to Access Sema The GLP-1 Affordability Crisis: How to Access Semaglutide Without Breaking the Bank

You stand in the pharmacy, prescription in hand, ready to finally start your weight loss journey with semaglutide. The pharmacist types into the computer, and your heart races with anticipation. Then comes the number: $1,300 per month without insurance for Ozempic and Wegovy. Your stomach drops. The medication that could change your life suddenly feels impossibly out of reach, reserved only for those who can afford to pay what amounts to a second rent payment every single month....

The Semaglutide Success Guide: Small Changes That The Semaglutide Success Guide: Small Changes That Make a Big Difference

You took your first injection with such hope. Finally, a medication that could actually help you lose weight and keep it off. The first week was encouraging. Your appetite decreased, the constant food thoughts quieted, and you felt optimistic about the journey ahead. Then came week two, and with it, the nausea. The bloating. That uncomfortable fullness that lingered for hours after even small meals. You found yourself wondering if feeling this miserable was worth the weight loss, or if maybe this medication just wasn't going to work for you after all....
