When You’re Trapped in a Dream of Love

Here’s a great letter from Amy…

“First of all I would like to thank you for doing what you do…finding you and receiving your e-mails, and reading this blog in the last few months has felt like I have an older, much wiser sister standing in my corner telling me just what I need to hear whenever I need to hear it…pretty darn cool!! :~)

Next, after reading this this morning I had to write and ask you a question about something I am going through…but first, a little background…I am 37 (38 in May, sigh.) I was married at 24 for 7 years, no children. He cheated. I was in a long term relationship with the father of my daughter for 6 years. We were due to get married in June More…

Are You a Princess Trapped in a Dungeon of No Love

Sometimes, we’re so deep inside a prison of habit and experience and fear and what we’ve been told and taught, we can’t see the “forest for the trees” – or in Mia’s case – the “dungeon for the chemistry”:

“Rori, I am in a glitch…I was married 25 yrs most bad to an evil man but the father of my kids. I stayed for them not me.

The Amazing Man Who Cannot Love You Right

Here’s a letter from Allison – who’s hung up on a man who not only is acting like a “friend with benefits” – he’s got more POWER in the “relationship” than Allison because of their “doctor/patient” relationship:

“Rori, I need help right away!

I’ve been dating the man of my dreams who I am totally in love with for almost a year. I did give Matt an “I love you,” about 2 weeks ago, then he told me he’s not a good guy to love, etc… He won’t quit dating other girls till, “there’s no doubt in my mind that I’m in love…” He hasn’t been dating other girls much, except for a couple first dates… a glass of wine with 2 different girls More…

Whip It – Be Your Own Hero

Okay – I’m ga-ga over the moon for this film. I want Drew Barrymore to direct every single film out there – (especially the last “Twilight” ) – and can’t imagine why she’s not being offered every script there is…

What’s so great?

For me – acting – so complex, subtle, and all-of-a-piece that I KNOW it was Drew making it that way. She cast Daniel Stern, known for bug-eyed over-the-top work, and got a measured, natural, deep performance from him matching Marcia Gay Harden’s best work ever that put her in the Meryl Streep league for me.

And – the sisterhood aspect, and the love interest where Ellen Page shows you how it’s done.

A client of mine got the strength and moxy she needed More…
