A client had been waiting to tell her husband she wanted a divorce. They had no problems but she was bored and no longer felt the love. We talked for a year then I didn’t hear from her until tonight. She said we’d ended our last call discussing how to make hot and sour soup and I’d given her a link to the recipe from my website. She’d spent the last year perfecting her hot and sour soup and getting unexpectedly jazzed about cooking. And her husband? They’re fine. She didn’t necessarily need a divorce. She just needed a change of focus, she just needed to reignite a passion to reconnect with her soul. From that connected place, everything she looked at appeared differently and she realized she was living heaven on earth.
