There is something that rings true to the idea of connecting back to simple values of working with our hands, and embracing a hard earned work ethic. We fervently hold on to our roots and relish a culture of yore, fearful of what might be in the unknown future. And it’s true in some ways that progress is […]

Step away from your present fear. What do you feel when you choose to ignore the stress and thrum in your body? Are you in the amazing race to beat your middle class conditions? Do you want more than minimum wage? Your mission, if you choose to accept it: Take a deep breath. Compare your day to […]

Sometimes I flip flop between the belief that we live in a passion economy and a speed economy. Another way to think about passion economy is impact. Are we making a great enough difference? Speed economy is about growth and bottom line. Are we working fast enough to exceed market expectations? Your mission, if you choose […]

Impact happens en masse, not just by one individual and for one winner. Yet sometimes it takes one decision maker, one influencer, to create change. So how do we balance the individual and the collective? Your mission, if you choose to accept it: Remember, while impact should happen for the large community, you can be a […]

When we abuse our most precious resource of time, it’s no wonder human beings push back. If I work 24/7 to meet a product or project or service deadline, what am I saving? If I compromise valuable time to fulfill others’ needs, what do I get in return? If you haven’t asked, what’s time worth to you? […]

Yesterday I read a post on social media that one of my dearest soul mates is going into hospice. She has been on the cancer-journey for some time now. A mother just barely 50, she has two beautiful school-aged children and a loving husband who is fiercely standing by her side. This is not a unique […]

Are you incapable of seeing or understanding the big picture? Do you fret over your now, past and future? Do you have a hard time believing that life will hand you a fair shake, so you protect yourself and shield your family from any input that may disturb your balance? Sometimes we forget why we […]
#RPCL Log Date May 11, 2017: #BeingHuman #BurnBright
When we speak from a place of belief, where we live and breathe those words we speak, we burn bright. I have a few clients like that. Both men and women, they are amazing at setting ideas on fire and motivating others to set things in motion. Sure, some folks burn brighter than others, but it’s not […]

Recently I got a scolding email. It was sort of strange, as it was from a complete stranger, and it reminded me how easy it is to communicate via email without any sense of how the message may be received. We call it being direct, but sometimes it’s just plain raw information that hasn’t been […]
#RPCL Log Date May 6, 2017: #BeingHuman #CollectiveSuccess
These are tough times for most of us living paycheck to paycheck. And while I’m not driven by money, I have been extremely fortunate to have a supportive community who is truly invested in my well being as much as I have been in theirs. That said, my husband and I still ran out of […]
