The Rich Witch

I don’t know if failure is the right word, but as I sit here in Denver again, settling into the space I’ll be occupying for the next three weeks, I recognize the mushiness that comes with unclaimed identity. I realize I have, and had to, de-crystalize who and what and where I was before this adventure.  It was time to leave Arizona. Anyone who knows me well has heard it on my lips again and again, but there was always one more mission, one more reason to stay. I think I also had to truly fall in love with the desert, which I did over the last 6-8 years I was there, and I’m incredibly grateful for that.  This year, though, 2025, I was done. Every time I considered doing something I used to enjoy in Arizona, I felt nothing. No spark, no curiosity, no joy. The desert had given me everything it could. It was time to go to Colorado. I’ve thought of Colorado off and on for 18 years. The first time I remember was in 2007 when Fort Collins was named one of the best places to live for ...

  How to know if you’ll manifest something:  “You go first.” This is my favorite manifestation advice of all time. You go first means, when you’re wanting to create something, live in something, conjure something, it is up to you to go first to make it happen. When you are merely sitting back and waiting to be rescued, waiting to be done for by the Universe without having put any energy forward yourself, you’re living in victim or wounded child energy. The reason this works is…you’ve likely heard you attract what you are. That can seem daunting when you feel totally separate from, and in some cases, the opposite of, what you want to attract. Another way to think of it is like this: What have you cultivated in your field? What have you done over and over again so that it is part of who you are, it is part of why people seek you out, it is woven into how you feel, it is what you are known for?  When you are seeking consistency and you have been living in chaos, your field i...

I know I’m going to look back at this time that is flying by and wish I had recorded some of what is going on, so here I go, honoring my future self. I love a good chronology, so here goes…     8/14 - Finished stay in Woodland Park, drove into Denver to meet Lauren and her dog Milo who I’ll be watching in just under a week. Also had an in-person interview scheduled with Bet365, but emailed to try to reschedule (for the second time) because I had Deena with me and could not bring myself to leave her in my car or in the parking garage while doing the interview. They canceled the interview and are “moving on with other candidates.” I didn’t know where I was going to stay this night. I knew I wouldn’t know where I was going to stay this night, but as the scheduled appointments were met and I was left with open space, I started to feel it more. The literal homelessness and wanting to stay conservative with my money as my next infusion is unforeseen.  I sat under a tree in one ...
