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 […]

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 […]

Your mission, if you choose to accept it: Don’t make the same mistakes. If anything, at least try and make new ones. It’s a sign you are willing to grow, risk and conquer fear.

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 […]
#RPCL Log Date May 5, 2017: #BeingHuman #InTheFaceofAdversity
In the face of adversity, we sometimes turn into our ugly selves. When we evolve as human beings, we eventually learn from the acts done unto us, and we start to understand how our acts may impact others. We develop empathy. As regressed human beings, we only think of our personal strife, with no regard for how our […]

Dream big. Why not? Sure there are barriers. There always are. And, just like that tree you are about to ski into if you stare it down, the barrier becomes a real thing if you focus on it. Your mission, if you choose to accept it: Turn your barriers into stretch goals. You can start […]
