I'm just back from a great event for women entrepreneurs called Savor the Success. It will continue tomorrow, but I'm completely filled up. I met terrific women, heard great speakers and practically floated home afterward. I'll be sharing quotes and thoughts I...
At my most recent Remarkable Women's Network event in Irvington, NY at the Eileen Fisher LAB store, Sheila Longhi, an independent rep for Silpada Designs, and I had a chance to chat between small group breakout sessions. Since both of us have the role of host at...
Mercury may be in retrograde, but my client calls this week have been nothing short of stunning. This afternoon Sarah Youngblood of Youngblood Interiors started our conversation by saying that there's been a shift in her. (Music to my ears!) She didn't even need to...
I rejected the first cover proof of my book Soul Proprietor because the red in the New Edition area was too dark and the type on Lindsey's name bled into the background. My wonderful book designer Kim Barron made the necessary adjustments; we sent it back for...
Kim DeYoung and I drove down to Bronxville last week to attend an event where our mutual friend Mary van der Wiel was speaking on branding. During the ride, Kim excitedly told me about her upcoming tele-seminar series called Think It, Create It, Sell It, which I...
Back when I was a member of the New England Chapter of the National Speakers Association, I heard a talk from a prominent editor at Fast Company Magazine. At the end of his talk, as was the practice in appreciating all of our guest speakers, the group rose to its...
Roz Chast spoke at Bedford Middle School in Westport last night describing her arrival there after going the wrong way on Long Lost Road, as she hilariously renamed Long Lots Road. My friend Cookie and I attended together as we are both fans and slight...
Twenty intrepid Artsy Girls found their way to an inspired evening hosted by Malene B (bottom row, center) last night. Malene invited our group for its quarterly dinner party after being a cherished member for eight years. Fifteen of us drove through the puddles...

I don't come across someone fearless every week, so these Fearless Friday posts are special. When Sandy Weiner (seated, right) called me excitedly to tell me her news, I remembered back to our past Mastermind Sessions and her putting out this 'reach' goal. But I'll...
This morning I finished reading Gretchen Rubin's best-selling book The Happiness Project recently recommended by a new friend, Cathline Marshall. I thoroughly enjoyed it, nodding at the pieces I have already undertaken, jotting down some new ones to test-drive. At...
After seeing the piece I wrote earlier this week about the AUTHOR license plate, Olga Adler sent me an image of her marketing equivalent. I filed it in my Blog Images collection and may have thought of it again, but got a helpful reminder from Olga today with the...
I had a double-header Friday morning spending time with remarkable women. Barbara Weltman and I met for coffee at the Starbucks in Greenwich, a midway point between our home offices. We get together a few times a year to compare notes, catch up and share what's...
I had the good fortune to use the organizing services of Emily Vetrosky of Organized Interiors by Emily last week. I gave Emily my wish list, then left to run a meeting. When I got back I was happy to see the results of her efforts. One area of concern is the...
