With Gratitude Optimism Is Sustainable – Michael J. Fox

Every one of us has had those days when it can feel so difficult, if not impossible, to stay optimistic, to stay hopeful, and motivated. Loving your life, your relationships, your business, or even your home, can still on occasion feel overwhelming or limiting, making running away seem like a really great idea. In hearing Michael J Fox speak of…

A Weekend Away

For the first time in years, I went away for the weekend. I had completely lost sight of the gift that leaving home for a short while is. HAVE YOU? For me, it is so easy to get caught up in schedules, routines, and the workload of running a business, and adding onto that, supporting its and my own growth,…

Logic And/Or Creativity?

In expanding my reach and supporting those who grow from my work, I have just completed a 6-part webinar series on Mindfulness. That is followed by a 6-part webinar series on Emotional Intelligence which includes a bonus webinar on Vulnerability. To complete this grouping, I am now recording a 12-part series on States of Being. Consequently, these packages won’t be…

A Future Mindset

At times we can go through our day simply struggling to get to the end of it so we can sleep, stop, breathe, or simply sit. Welcome to humanity! Those days happen to each of us. The difference is that some of us live there as a way of being, while others of us go there on rare occasions when…

It’s All In Your Mind

YOU BET IT IS! In listening to a podcast the other day, one of the distinctions that was made about Business Coaches was that some deal with the very pragmatic (theoretically, solely pragmatic) issues of finances, creating business plans, etc. while others deal with mindset. It caused me to do a short meditation on what it is that I do.…

Different Lives – Different Experiences

Do you ever forget that there is so much more to you than simply your career and your family? Your family can be a blessing that makes life so worth living. Hopefully, your career calls you to continuously become so much more of who you are meant to be. Nonetheless, the many additional aspects of you may include your love…

A Life of Purpose and Awe

Life is one of those adventures that calls us repeatedly to remember who we are, what we are doing, and why. I know I am not the only one on the planet who has an endless number of tasks that need to be done. So much so that we can forget what we were doing when we momentarily stop. Still,…

Your Choice!

Last Wednesday I was blessed to speak to almost 400 women at an annual conference. Leadership: Purpose, Passion, & Power was the title of my talk. Staring out at this huge room with packed circular tables everywhere, I started with “What if I told you every one of us is called to leadership?” and then “What if I told you…

What’s Your Impact?

After speaking with someone about my work as a teacher, I mentioned that for every physician I taught the method of integrative health I developed, there were probably 1,000 or more patients he or she impacted over their career. I impacted one, he or she impacted thousands. Think of that….  Having taught innumerable physicians, nurses, social workers, physical therapists, occupational…

State of Being

For many of us, there is a belief (or illusion) that when we are truly present our mood, energy, and focus is dependent upon, or greatly impacted by, the many interruptions, individuals, and circumstances that come our way on a moment-to-moment basis. I am here to say that is not at all the truth.  We are so powerful that every…
