The Unbearable Heaviness of Editing
This is the 9th blog post in my screenwriting series, it all started here Day 20 - I printed out the screenplay yesterday. I took a picture and texted it to my sister and a couple of friends. It felt pretty cool. Scary – but cool. They all asked to read it. I told them I needed time. I wasn’t ready for feedback yet. As a writer, I’ve come to know my own quirky, creative process and the incredible vulnerability I feel about my craft. I’ve had to... Read More
Edward Burns Reads My Blog :-)
This is the 6th blog post in my screenwriting series, it all started here Day 16 – I got a tweet from one of my favorite writer/director/filmmakers, Edward Burns yesterday. It made my day. I had just been whining about how maybe I shouldn’t have gotten back onto Twitter and Facebook (I took a 3 month Social Media Sabbatical) because sometimes it just sucks the energy right out of me. And then I get this note from Ed. Or Burnsie. What should I call him now... Read More

What Are You Afraid Of?
I’m back from my travels to and from Vancouver. It was exhausting and so much fun! I absolutely *love* working with T. Harv Eker and all of the incredible people at Peak Potentials Training.

And speaking of fear, guess what I did while I was in Vancouver? Here’s a hint: I took a... Read More
Step Into Your Greatness
It’s easy to believe all of your critical voices and never attempt anything risky or scary in your life. It’s easy to play small. It’s easy to abandon your dreams when you hear “Who do you think you are?” It takes more effort to step beyond your comfort zone and attempt to fulfill the whispers of greatness. I believe that those whispers are glimpses of what is possible. They are your Soul or your Inner Wisdom or the Universe showing you what can be, if you really want... Read More
You’ve Got to Have B.A.L.L.S.
Last week I was having coffee with a new acquaintance, “Jen” who just happens to be one of the most successful business women I’ve ever met. I was sharing one of my crazy manifesting stories when Jen leaned into me, as if she was about to share some juicy bit of gossip and said; “Sandy, you have got such big balls.” Ahhhhhh! I fell backward, mouth wide open and began to laugh hysterically. “What are you talking about?!” The rest of the day, I couldn’t stop thinking... Read More
Expand Your Comfort Zone
Since my last blog came out about having B.A.L.L.S. I’ve been bombarded with comments, questions and lots of fun presents. (including my friend Laura who brought me “chocolate balls” from her travels!) YUMMMMMM! One of the questions was “What does it feel like to “expand your comfort zone” when you’re practicing B.A.L.L.S.?“ - which got me to thinking about the summer of 2006. I was writing in my journal on a plane headed to Vancouver... Read More

Comparison-itis Epidemic
Watch out! There’s another virus sweeping the world right now, have you caught it? Protect yourself now. Comparison-itis Reaches Epidemic I got an email yesterday from one of my Fabulous Formula clients that said she was starting to question a big project she’s been putting together. She wrote to me: “….all of these other people that I’ve been following are doing stuff that sounds similar…..I’m confused and a bit nervous….I... Read More
