I now realize that a broken back, failed surgery, and Stage IV cancer are three of the greatest things that ever happened to me. Three of the most positive, transformative things that ever happened to me. They helped me become a vastly better person than I ever was, and I am eternally grateful for that.

I feel vulnerable every day to the grace of God as expressed in every living thing.

Each day, I would feel new wisdom and new intuition and I would follow that. Most everything I was doing was coming from that voice in my heart, which was affirmed by the ancient texts.

I actually think it's courageous to be vulnerable, and it's not something to be avoided.

I was at a point in my life that was really between life or death, and I sort of intuitively and instinctively knew, I have to listen.

I feel positive when I feel vulnerable, because it's another reminder that it's not all about me and about my ego.

What inspires me is the power of human potential... the human potential to evolve in our lives, and for profound healing. It's always been there but it's become somewhat obscure to us given the stressful, fast-paced modern culture in which we live. I'm also inspired by how miraculous some of the simplest and most natural aspects of life can be the greatest sources of healing and transformation.
