Have you ever had a doughnut before anything else? When I was a kid I’m positive that I could’ve done that every day of the week, but not anymore. Last week, in the middle of a conversation with someone about how important is to start your day off on a positive note – it hit…
If I would have gotten pregnant on my last day in the corporate world, I’d probably be in labor or have a newborn. I know. That sounds really weird. That’s what I woke up to this morning. I also woke up for my first full week as a 50 year-old. Maybe that has something to…
At a conference recently, this happy, more-seasoned lady named Dottie walked up to my table and was curious about the books that I was selling. To the best of my ability, I answered her questions and asked if she wanted to sign up for my newsletter. Thereby giving me permission to send her updates on…
It’s one thing to experience personal success. It’s quite another to be working with someone as a coach and to see them have breakthroughs. It’s mind-blowing and humbling, all at the same time.

Of course you’re going to say “yes.” Why wouldn’t you? Maybe you’ve got a bum wheel or suffer from I’d-rather-have-the-parade-come-to-me syndrome. Other than that, I can’t think of a good reason not to be in a parade. Especially, if you’re an extrovert like me. This is a great way to meet new people and maybe…
When this journey started, we didn’t really know the impact that could be had. Now we see breakthroughs happening where they never would have been expected. There have been people that have changed their lives and livelihood. There are people that have committed themselves again to their calling. Then there are those that are struggling…
