Moving Beyond A Myth

“The myth of normal is a cloak that disguises the immense diversity and complexity of the human experience, obscuring the truth that we are all vulnerable and flawed, yet capable of extraordinary resilience and growth.”                                                  …

A Special Weekend

This weekend was a special weekend with family. My marvelous kid sister mentioned it has been many years since the siblings have all gotten together other than for funerals or major events so we should all drive or fly in for a gathering at her place at Rohoboth Beach, Delaware. Four out of five of us did. One, the “baby,” insisted…

The Gift Of Making A Decision

I’ve written frequently about mindset and here I go again. Coming at it from the strangest of directions – gardening. It’s that time of year again when mulching needs to be considered and then executed. Do I buy the standard mix of soft and hard woods, to be spread amongst my plants and shrubs etc., and then replace it every…

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,…

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.…

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…

Are You Listening or Hearing?

Today I had an experience that I had long forgotten about. Years ago, my private practice was primarily with individual patients but on occasion I would work with couples at their request. Today brought back so many memories when I saw a couple in my office. I repeated in the beginning, as I always did, “I don’t see good guys…
