Perspective

On occasion I have someone ask: “What does a coach do?” “Is it like therapy?”  The answer is always “yes and no.”  Therapy, as described, is the use of psychological methods, particularly when based on regular personal interaction, to help a person change behavior, increase happiness, and overcome problems.”  Coaching, as described, is a professional relationship that helps people produce…

My Brother-in-Law Died

My beautiful sister who has spent the past 30 years alongside her husband has lost him, and the world has lost a man of amazing humor, goodness, and grace. Listening to the many, many, people Mike has supported over the years as they “walked with Bill” brought tears to the eyes of all of us in attendance at his Celebration…

Change As a Gift Calling You Forward

Periodically, we are called to update, or re-envision, our lives and/or our businesses. Sometimes it’s the result of an outside situation. Death of a loved one, a major illness, loss of a company, or something else traumatic in nature. Sometimes, however, it is simply because we are being called, yet again, to shift, grow, and change.

A Smorgasbord Week

This is one of those weeks where life is a smorgasbord of activities. Some have been incredibly sad, some wonderfully exciting, others simply demanding so much time and creativity, and thankfully also those moments that are pure bliss. It is so easy to become ungrounded, reactionary, and angry in the midst of such emotional turmoil and seemingly conflicting emotions. Haven’t…

The Faces of Change

Living Your Purpose or Fear

I received this quote today from a friend, Machen MacDonald, who I respect immensely: “Success is about making your purpose greater than your fear.” I wanted to share it with you because it has certainly given me something to think about.  In the past I’ve spoken about Mindfulness plenty, being able to know what you are feeling at any given…

The Gifts of Transition

As a much-needed adventure, I decided that it was time to play tourist and go back home to Boston to see the sites, take a “Duck Tour'' (actually ride a vehicle that tours through Boston downtown streets showing major historical points of interest which then goes in the water and glides up the Charles River.) I then took an excursion…

Clarity, Passion, and the Call

You know those moments when you feel most powerful? Most focused? Most certain of where you are going and why? Don’t you just love those moments?  I have been wanting to do a 10-month group coaching program for Bold Visionary Women Leaders who are in transition even if perhaps they are frightened, uncertain, or confused about exactly what that looks…
