Ask Auntie Artichoke "Finding the Heart of the Story in the Journey of Life"
Welcome to "Ask Auntie Artichoke" online audio and video shows. The honorary title of “Auntie” is given in many cultures to the wise women who guide and mentor others in life. “Aunties and Uncles” are sources of encouragement, support and unconditional love.
Why The Artichoke?
The symbol of the artichoke has great meaning in my teaching and writing. As I work with families, I frequently find only the outer edges are exposed and can be prickly, hard to open and sometimes bitter. They are closed to new ideas or methods. Many families prefer the known over the unknown, even when the old patterns and skills are not serving them well.
But, as you expose the artichoke and people to warmth, caring, and time, gradually the leaves begin to open and expose the real treasure—the heart.
My training is as a parent educator, family coach, and personal historian. I have written more than 20 books, hundreds of articles and am blessed to have had opportunities to speak internationally on family issues, including care giving. I am a life-long learner and connector. My favorite volunteer activity is writing end-of-life stories for Hospice.
I have confidence in your ability to succeed. Grab a cup of tea, put your feet up, and join me as I accompany and support you in your life's journey.
The Success Attitude
Each show includes vital information to help you create new thoughts and ideas about yourself and your life.
These are concepts that will help you empower yourself and create more success for yourself. Included will be a variety of exercises, poems, quotes and ideas for you.
My shows will include experiences from my personal and professional life from my past life, my present life and my future.
Born to be a leader, I was bullied in high school and it took 18 years to turn my life around. As a single mother with two youngsters I embarked on a wondrous journey of personal development incuding buying a haunted house and then getting 'called' to a higher mission than myself of teaching about self esteem.

Being In Total Connection with Herself
Thank you and welcome to a place to share life experiences that lead to healing, awakening and spiritual enlightenment.
I have been a contracted freelance sign language interpreter since 1996. Working with Deaf and Hard of Hearing people has been a wonderful blessing for me. I was so into my career, however, that I didn’t recognize that I was out of balance. In 2001 I was diagnosed with a fast spreading deadly form of cancer. This experience helped me to realize that there is much more to healing than just healing the body. To me, getting cancer was a blessing because it started me on a journey of learning about the human body and psyche.
I recently published my first book called Embrace the BITCH Within. BITCH is an acronym for Being In Total Connection with Herself. It is my journey of finding myself with a life threatening illness to healing, discovery and awakening.
I am currently workking on two more books that are in the process of being published. They are; The Way of the Modern Mystic and Runda 3: Healing Through the Three Levels of Consciousness.
As a Show Host for the WIN I hope to bring you stories, tools, insights, love for who you REALLY ARE, and joy from within.
