The fierce look in this animals eyes, I have seen in some of my clients when they KNOW what they want. When you spend time circling the problem instead of choosing a solution (whether it’s ideal or not) you will never get out of your own way. Truly, the only way out is through… You …
If you allow it, the world will tell you what path you should take and why. It begins early and often until at some point you will say to yourself… Hey, what’s my purpose, what am I meant to do, who am I meant to be? It is at that point, you get to do …
Remember your first job? I bet it involved a lot of watching and listening. Sitting in training sessions hearing teammates explain the ins and outs of getting things done. And then… You’re unleashed on the workplace. And you (like me) wished you had taken better notes…;) The BEST way to learn something new is to …
You might say, yeah sure, if I shift what I’m thinking, then I’ll see things differently. True. But that isn’t how real shifts happen. You can sit and think all day…and nothing changes.

Joseph Campbell is well known for writing about the hero’s journey and how it relates to everyday life. His model has been used by authors, speakers, in corporate programs, as part of defining a spiritual path and more for inspiration and to motivate the achievement of a goal or result. Most notably, many movies follow …
I can’t imagine how incredibly restorative time alone for Marilyn would have been. As an international celebrity, you would expect her batteries to be drained, constantly. But what if you aren’t an international celebrity? Doesn’t matter. We ALL need time to refill, refuel and recharge! Being alone, even for 5-10 minutes a day to soak …
It’s an interesting question to ponder. When we fear something might happen, we lose sight of the fact that we can… Hope that something else can happen. Now I know that this isn’t a thought we can reach for immediately. Fear tends to put us in a dark place that allows in few, if any, …
I’m sure you’re as busy as ever now that the world is opening up again. And yet I wonder if that’s pent up energy or business as usual for you. Either way, may I invite you to look deeper at what’s happening in your life, your world and ask a “simple” question… Where’s the gift …
