About a week ago I was invited to an event to "celebrate" Breast Cancer Awareness Month (also known as BCAM). And I immediately broke into a cold sweat. This happens from time to time - typically whenever someone asks me about BCAM or to support or g ...

Is this getting in the way of what you really want?

Hey there, Friend. Do you often find yourself saying or thinking "I don't have enough time to..." or "I can't" (even when you want to say "yes")? I find that most of my clients have this issue (and frankly, many of my family and friends do too). Here ...

Happy Wednesday, Friend. Welcome to the Course Correction Newsletter! This past weekend was full of baseball for me and my family (both my boys play and the Fall season has begun). And while watching games all weekend long, I got to thinking about h ...

Hey there, Friend. By now, you've seen that I write articles for YourTango. It’s a way to get my writing in front of more people. YourTango regularly asks for articles on particular topics - what they call "hot topics" (which, much of the time, are ...

Fake it till you make it is bad advice

Hey there, Friend. Today, I'm dispelling the myth that you can build confidence by faking it. Once upon a time I believed this myth. I acted as though I knew what I was doing and felt completely comfortable in my own skin. Even though I didn't. And g ...

You Can't Have it All

Hey there, Friend. I'm noticing a bit of a disturbing trend in my coaching practice (and in our culture) lately. Despite the fact that many of us talk about how we can't "have it all", I'm finding more and more in my coaching business that people are ...

Do you want to be successful in life? Of course you do (as do we all)! But what does success mean to you? How do you define it for yourself? And have you given it a lot of thought? You should. Because how you define success for yourself is the foun ...

Are you having one of those days?

July 19th, 2017 at 6:10 am CDT

Friend, do you ever have one of those days? You know what I mean. You either wake up feeling off or in a foul mood. Or you wake up fine, but something (unexpected and unwanted) occurs. And what started as a normal, or even good, day becomes one of th ...

Do you know the secret to having a career and life you love?

Happy Thursday, Friend! Most of my clients struggle mightily with how to juggle their careers and their personal life. And it's not just parents that struggle. In this fast-paced world filled with technology, it's easy to get a bit lost. To work hard ...
