The Skill and Power of Effective Communication

After speaking with a client yesterday, so much of what has been talked about regarding moving forward with Covid became that much more real and pragmatic.  Initially her company was to go back to the office setting this month; now it has been moved until next month, shortly after Labor Day. Rumors exist of perhaps everyone goes in 2 days…

Pack Plenty of Humor and Plenty of Faith – You’ll Need Both

I have written before about how important it is to know your values, in life and in your business. Only by being able to identify what you believe, what your guideposts in life are, can you most fully live the truth of who you are. Transparency, integrity, and commitment come naturally, if not easily, when we are in touch with…

I’m currently completing a project that has called me to look at myself and how I deal or don’t deal with confusion and disappointment, and nonetheless, appreciation. After receiving a few rave reviews about…

The Gift of Being You

I was able to attend one of my favorite all-time networking meetings twice this week, even if virtually. It is such a delight with wildly outrageous personalities who nonetheless are bent on working in, or, supporting non-profit organizations. Their business ambitions joined with values, integrity, and a desire to support those less fortunate is a common theme. I leave feeling…

Integrity withYourself

In speaking with two prospective clients today, I was reminded once again that what we know is irrelevant. What we believe and what we practice is what has the greatest impact on our lives.

Between friends it needs to be impeccable. Even…

Responding To You

I was reading a few things on Facebook this morning and one thought came to mind; how overwhelmingly busy we all can be when we are trying to “do it all.” “Be it all.” And/or “Know it all.” We can’t, we aren’t, and it is impossible… Acknowledge that when your presence, your personality, and/or your energy field, say’s “I AM”…

Is It a Week of Hope or Expectation?

These past few days I have worked with three different clients, all highly accomplished (think lawyer etc.) and yet one theme has permeated every single call…… “I know I know but I am so scared, lacking in confidence, filled with self-doubt, etc. etc. etc.” Please help me see what to do.” Slightly different, yet all the same message...  My heart…
