Beauty or Deeds?

Monday, September 29th, 2008

Paul Newman died at the age of 83. He was still an incredible handsome man. But as I was reading what people were saying about him and what the media were portraying about him and his legacy, I just couldn’t help wondering about the concept of beauty and how different it is being valued for […]

Loving Yourself is true Freedom

Friday, September 19th, 2008

I have to finish this blog entry within 20 minutes, before I start my day, and I still did not manage to write one single sentence that I like. Each time I write a sentence, I immediately hit the ‘delete’ key, as it does not sound ‘right’.
I’ve been too busy yesterday and couldn’t find the […]

We Don’t Need Another Hero

Saturday, September 6th, 2008

The other day I was listening to the radio and one line caught my attention: “We don’t need another hero.”
Pictures from old movies flashed in front of me.
The mythological hero - tall and handsome, powerful and wise, always resourceful and with a sense of humor. Those were the heroes we were searching to lead us […]

Madonna – Who’s that Girl?

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

Two days ago I went to see Madonna in the Arena in Amsterdam. Madonna has long been one of my favorite Feminine Leadership role models. People ask me how come I see her as a role model for women when she is using so much Male energy and building so much on her sex image.
Well, […]

Beauty Queens, Barbie’s and Vice-Presidents

And on the other side of the political map – choosing Sara Palin as the VP for the Republicans has launched a huge attack on her with the title of “You are NOT Hillary”.
I am a die-hard supporter of Hillary Clinton. I certainly agree that Sara Palin is NOT Hillary. More than that, I certainly […]

The Flower of Honesty

Monday, February 4th, 2008

The following might read like a love story, however for me its a wonderful fable about the power of honesty and how much when we are in our power we can allow ourself to be honest.
In ancient China, around the year 250BCE, a certain prince of the region of Thing-Zda was about to be crowned […]

The Black Swan in Life

Wednesday, December 26th, 2007

It’s Christmas time and the New-Year is just around the corner, which is a good time to have a look at what we have done this year. Where have we grown, what has changed in what we do? What new ideas did we have and what concepts have we let go of?
It is said that […]

Margaret Sanger – Women’s Freedom to Control their Life

Friday, September 14th, 2007

Freedom is our ability to choose what we wish for. How can we be free if we have limited information? This is the power of education. It gives us the knowledge that allows us freedom to choose our ways. When we are ignorant we are limited and do not have the choice. WE are not […]

Durga - Leadership by Creating Clarity

Tuesday, September 11th, 2007

I was sitting for my morning meditation today and somehow just couldn’t fall into the space of detachment and peace that normally fall on me when meditating. My mind was running like a herd of wild horses.
Summer is over, which means that our working season is starting. That means hundred and one projects to be […]

Listening - The Art of Women Leadership

Wednesday, September 5th, 2007

One of the strongest skills in women’s leadership is the ability to listen.
Women are normally used to listen more than speak. Actually we have to re-learn the art of expressing ourselves by speaking out what we have to say.
However, we still need to remember that women leadership is at its strongest when we listen to […]
