Today's Thought (Liz & Ariel of Mishka Productions)

"More than eight years ago, I packed up my apartment, put everything in storage and headed towards mom's, Ariel Wolfe, house in Scottsdale. For most of my adult life I had been working as an actress either in the theatre or television. Work was getting scarce in Los Angeles, I was taking a two-month hiatus, my mother warned me about an impending earthquake, and I was tired and what better way to be taken care of for a couple of months but by a Jewish mother...especially mine! Completely exhausted and underweight I collapsed for the first three weeks and then so did the rest of Los Angeles after a devastating earthquake. I guess mom was right..."

A Mother's Point of View
By Ariel Wolfe

Well-- there I was with my life neatly structured and my psychotherapy practice allowing me to support myself, yet have lots of private time for my own spiritual practices and life. Now you KNOW that the MINUTE you think things are perfect and manageable, the Great Spirit shakes his belly, turns your world upside down, and says "okay Great Spiritual therapist, let's see how you handle this one"!
ELISABETH (Liz Dawn), my youngest daughter, CAME HOME! (I must admit she did so at my urging about an impending earthquake in Los Angeles).

My office became her bedroom, my computer and phones her lifeline to her L.A. world, and my shoulder a place to vent. (What good Jewish mother could resist this drama?).

The story of how Mishka Prodcutions evolved was told in our last newsletter and so I won't repeat in here.

My intention when this business became a business, was to assist in getting it started and organized and the just let Liz fly with it. Somewhere along the way that intention went down the tubes. It was obvious to both of us that we each had a niche to fill and that spirit intended for us both to be fully involved.

In an upcoming event, Celebrate Your Life, she calls forth a luminary line-up of leading visionary conference speakers: Dr. Deepak Chopra, Caroline Myss, Dr. Wayne Dyer, James Van Praagh, Dr. Joan Borysenko, Neale Donald Walsch, Debbie Ford, Dr. Meg Blackburn, Lynn Andrews, SARK, Dr. Brian Weiss, Alan Cohen, Dr. Eve Wood, Dr. Joe Dispenza, Gregg Braden, Marianne Williamson, Dannion Brinkley, Gary Zukac, Alberto Villoldo, Cheryl Richardson, Joan Borysenko, Debbie Ford,  Dr. Steven Farmer, and more.

Join me as I speak with both Liz and her mom, Ariel, telling a humanistic story about how Liz with mom's inspiration turned a personal vision quest into a sacred rite of passage touching and benefiting many humans through the production company she manifests as, Mishka Productions.
