Why I still make choices I know aren’t good for me

Food Addiction and Procrastination I just got back from a trip to South Carolina. It was so nice to get away with my friend, enjoy the sunshine, time away, and a change of scenery. We went to the Myrtle Beach area. And I hate to say it, but I didn’t make the best choices when […]

Confidence isn’t a personality trait – it’s a state

Confidence is a state of mind and physiology matters too. Over the past couple of weeks, we’ve been exploring something important. First, how real change happens below the surface of the conscious mind.Then, how stress lives not just in our schedule, but in our nervous system. Today, I want to talk about something many people […]

Stress isn’t just in your schedule – It’s in your nervous system

There was a season in my life when stress felt like a constant companion. It was the year I left my corporate position to start my coaching and training business (2013). On paper, it looked exciting. I had been counting down for over 4 years (1,100 days!). I had an app on my phone telling […]

Why change can feel so hard

This weekend, our home was lively and full of energy because we invited 3 of the grandkids for a sleepover. There was that kind of joyful chaos that fills a house with life. There was a dance party in the new basement with blankets and pillows everywhere. We bought cookies, ice cream, and had pancakes […]

Give to Gain: The Power of Sustainable Giving

Do you have demon hunters in your midst?

Facing our inner demons (and finding peace anyway) This weekend, all four of my grandkids slept over at our house. As you can imagine it was quite lively! At one point, I walked into our new family room and found them watching K-Pop Demon Hunters. If you are not familiar, it’s a movie with high-energy music, […]

The Place Between Retreat and Real Life

Life doesn’t often move in neat, predictable chapters. Sometimes it feels more like stepping from one season into another without much warning — caregiver, speaker, leader, daughter, teacher — all within a matter of days. I actually love my life this way. It’s an adventure. And sometimes it’s exhausting if I haven’t filled my cup. […]

Connection and Growth

You know the best thing about my job? Meeting with people. It’s what I like most about coaching, training, and podcasting and even when I worked in my corporate job . . . I loved going to meetings. So many people laugh at that. I’ve heard clients, and people on social media, complain about having […]

How to Manage a Micromanager

Free advice on how to manage a micromanager I am baffled by micromanagers because it just doesn’t make sense as to why they need to be breathing down the necks of the people who do good work for them. As it turns out, this perspective is only ½ of the story. Oftentimes, micromanagers are getting […]

Squeeze out your sponge daily

EQ at Work One of the first leadership conferences I organized at work, was in 2001, and we had a full day booked with 5 speakers. The audience was about 500 corporate leaders across Technology, Legal, Finance & Human Resources departments. I remember the keynote speaker was talking about emotional resilience and said something like this: Think […]
