This time of year I love to watch all the news shows and programs that reflect on the “year in review” or the “best of…” Now sure, maybe not the most uplifting years to reflect back on these past two, but always valuable to look back and take note nonetheless. So that is exactly what […]

One of the great things about the work that I do is that I get to have conversations with people all the time. Conversations that reveal so much about how our mindset can both trap and free us. It made me realize that SO many people out there are stuck feeling like they can't get […]

So much has happened this past year and it's really got me holding on to many memories from my childhood. As we prance along into this holiday season, I started making a list of all the things that I want to do to make me feel more connected to the Christmas of my childhood. Listen […]

We tend to think of EVERYTHING as A or B. On or Off. Black or White. All or Nothing. But what about c, d, e, f, and g? We must continue to question ourselves and consider other options. I can't just get excited about coming up with one new option and then not continue to […]
