  • Double Dragon

    The Double Dragon is an appropriate symbol for the topic of covert aggression and empowerment - two heads coming out of one body.

    For in truth, the dragons exist one within the other, as both aggression and empowerment exist within each person.

    Relational aggression isn't so much about a specific person, a "bitch" we love to hate, as much as a state of mind; a set of choices we all can make.

    The possibility for their manifestation exists in every person. Some people do play the role of aggressor as opposed to target, but to become an aggressor is only a choice away for each one of us.

    Be willing then, to see yourself, if only in potential, in both roles - aggressor and target. Doing so will give you insight and understanding, and with that, true empowerment.

I really liked how the whole evening felt. It was neat to be a part of this multigenerational family. I, the oldest; Dionna, the ... Read More

“The Disease to Please”
In talking with a reporter the other day she mentioned that women are often handicapped by the "disease to please," a term I had never heard before. All too readily, I understood what she was talking about, though: the woman who gives, gives, gives until there's nothing left for ... Read More
