“New Year, New You” … ugh, that expression drives me nuts, In fact, all the hype around the New Year makes me absolutely crazy, to be perfectly honest.

It’s like we pretend we have this arbitrary switch that we are suppose to turn on that is going to change everything.

And, then we wonder why we end up failing before we’ve even really get s...

Do you realize that the biggest fear, aside from death and public speaking (yes, that actually ranks higher than death for many people … I’ll come back to that in another blog post) is being judged (and being criticized)?

Well, I have news for you … you’re always being judged.

And …

It doesn’t matter.

Yep, that’s right, it doesn’t m...

I’m not logical.

In fact, some would even call me bat-shit crazy.

I don’t make logical decisions. Often times they seem radical, out there, or even ridiculous.

I am not linear.

I am here to “bend time” and take dynamic, quantum leaps.

To be a tree-shaker, a table-flipper, a rebel, and a light warrior. To distort the very constraint...

As I mentioned in a previous post, I took an unplanned, and much needed, sabbatical this summer. What started out as a 9-day excursion to the mountains, and some time with some beloved friends, turned into going completely “dark” for more than two months.

And, when I say “dark” … I mean fully unplugged. Off social media, out of the mainstream e...

I needed to go off-the-grid, to go offline, to go quiet and get still, to go dark for a bit.

I was feeling old, familiar signs of frustration, fatigue, burnout … the kind I haven’t felt since my corporate days.

You see, I had recently taken on a new venture, a partnership … or, more of a collaboration, really. And, while at first, the decis...

I am a huge baseball fan. I’m talking crazy, obsessed, nut-type of fan. In fact, when the Chicago Cubs finally won the World Series in 2016, I lost my freakin’ mind … seriously, it was both scary and comical at the same time. I get lost in the sport, emotionally, and totally invested.

You see, baseball is in my blood.

No really, it is deep ...

I don’t know about you, but I love the feeling of things coming down to the wire. You know, that adrenaline rush of trying to bring something in at the 11th hour … that feeling of energy that builds up as you think about how much time you have left. 

There is something about that buildup that opens up huge creative portals for me. Perhaps for y...

Aside from my time, I view my relationships and my network as one of the most valued and treasured aspects of my life, and of my business. I believe in creating the space and demonstrating the grace to cultivate and nurture real relationships.

Simply being linked on social media, or being on someone’s email list, doesn’t automatically establish...

This past weekend, I indulged a little and made myself some waffles (they were only the good protein ones from the freezer section … but, still waffles, nonetheless). As I was beginning to butter my waffles after they popped up from my little toaster, I found myself amused at the way I was buttering them.

I was being very particular that butter...
