Sometimes I get so frustrated with head talk. Sure, our inner voice can be powerful and motivational. But… it can also be extremely destructive. If we compare what we have to what we think we should have, we may feel we don’t measure up and start to believe we don’t deserve it. And it spirals […]

#RPCL Log Date April 16, 2017: #BeingHuman #OpenPerspective
How are you with conviction? Are you someone who has extreme beliefs based on past failures? As humans, we can learn from mistakes. AND we can evolve to the point where the same trials might turn into something bigger and better with one minor pivot. It’s not always ALL or NOTHING. Your mission, if […]

Teaming up with folks on projects or in life can be exhilarating at the start. So what happens when the honeymoon is over? I know it can be really hard to move on when something disappoints us. It’s almost like that one minor thing that happened is THE ONLY thing we can see. Your mission, […]
#RPCL Log Date April 13, 2017: #BeingHuman #SeriouslyJustBreathe
Stress is a killer. Both figuratively and literally. Just google it and you’ll find dozens of articles like this one. Money is the number one cause. And I can totally relate. Your mission, if you choose to accept it: Just breathe. If we are fortunate enough to have our (personal and family) health and wellness, […]

How do you incorporate humor and laughing into your life? I know when I’m really bummed about something, I turn to comedy shows to escape. My spouse makes me laugh out loud, a lot. It helps when I am not always happy with him! What about kindness? Do you feel appreciated? Do you give to […]

Sometimes I get so mad at myself for second guessing something. And yet it’s like second nature. It can happen in a matter of seconds. It’s a pattern of seconds. I was telling a client that we (yes women) are really good at that. And my business partner later reminded me it is because society tells us […]

Some days I read the news and feel dread. And the only way to embrace hope is to laugh. Your mission, if you choose to accept it: Find the humor in the dark and dreary. So you are having a bad day and the ether is not helping. Shut it down and turn to someone who […]
#RPCL Log Date April 9, 2017: #BeingHuman #SleepItOff
You may have heard the expression, sleep it off. Mostly referring to someone who may have had a little too much to drink. The same goes with anger, irritation and impatience. What are those triggers that cause you to reach a boiling point? Your mission, if you choose to accept it: Sleep it off. If you can’t figure out what’s […]
#RPCL Log Date April 8, 2017: #BeingHuman #TakeCareToLearn
We never stop learning. And something about not knowing still triggers us. So much so, we stop listening when we sense we should have all the answers in our job. This happens all of the time. To very smart people, by the way. All human beings hear what they want to hear. So if we […]
#RPCL Log Date April 7, 2017: #BeingHuman #SlowDown
We like speed. And a lot of the time, money drives speed. We shorten timelines so we can get more for less. We try to beat the competitor by offering faster delivery. We plan so far ahead, we try to predict fashion a year and a half away, not just 12 months anymore. Speed can […]
