In case you haven’t heard, gratitude is a thing.

All of the cool kids are talking about it.

There are journals, podcasts, books, and gurus just for gratitude.

There is even a whole science behind gratitude, (Name). Did you know that?

Here’s what researchers have found: it’s more than just a feel...

Do you ever get the feeling that you really need to do something and there is a bit of urgency to it?

For example, the feeling says “I should pull off the highway now to grab gas.” Then, after you fill up and get back on the highway, you realize there has been a car accident and that could have bee...

Usually my mailbox at home is filled with  junk mail, coupon books and random magazines I may or may not still pay for. But recently, a special handwritten envelope made its way into my mailbox. When I picked it out of the pile of mail, I could practically feel joy emanating from it.

Do you ever feel like your life resembles that game at the fair?

The one where just when you hit all the creatures down, they keep popping back up. Until, inevitably, they pop up at a rate faster than you can whack them down, the timer runs out and you lose!

Let’s be honest, just when you get eve...

Do you ever have those moments where you forget who you are or how far you’ve come? You forget how much you’ve achieved and how much you’ve accomplished. And you convince yourself that you’ve lost your magic touch and it’s only a matter of time before you lose everything you’ve worked for. Eeek!

Let’s not let Pinterest-perfect holidays steal our joy.

You know what, I’m tired of the picture-perfect, have-it-all-together image of Christmas, LIFE that social media promotes. So…

I deleted Pinterest.

Scrolling through the beautiful, staged professiona...

Just checking in to see how our Thanksgiving experiment went…

Did you second guess yourself and your self-worth because of a social media post or because of somebody’s comment that might have been unkind?

Or did you unplug and connect to the things that real...

To all of my clients, non-clients, followers, non-followers, friends, colleagues and fellow women: 

I hear you loud and clear. The pressure is mounting. Your team is smaller, the expectations are greater, and the challenges feel daunting. It’s easy to feel like you’re about to collapse under the we...

We all know today’s fast-paced, high-pressure world of business requires some pretty thick skin. Results and performance are the primary focus with cost cutting the omnipotent threat to morale and job security. But, what if a leader could bring more than expertise and profit acumen to the game?

Let’s face it, there are plenty of ordinary people saying and doing rather ordinary things and finding great fame and fortune as a result. We see them all day long on social media. Influencers trying to influence, with little to no star power.

The neatly dressed man held a familiar sign at the bottom of the Tucson airport escalator. “Canyon Ranch” was my cue that he would drive me to the coveted resort. As my bags arrived, he loaded them into the black Mercedes Sprinter van, gathered a few more arriving guests, and we made our way.  We we...
