I'm often the guinea pig of my own coaching. I had a task I'd been putting off and putting off for at least 10 days--creating a warm letter to send to clients, friends and colleagues about the upcoming holistic cruise I'm participating in. I knew I had the...
I had the privilege of being the opening presenter at the Make.Art.Work series back in January. My topic, my specialty, was goal-setting. I got to be with the artists enrolled in the sessions held in Fairfield, New Haven and Hartford. I challenged them to come up...
I invited Lilli, an organizational expert, to address the women of my Mastermind Intensive yesterday. She focused her talk on Evernote, an online application which 50 million people, other than me, have found useful. Count me in now--50,000,001--since her demo and...
I've just begun listening to My Beloved World by Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor and am already enthralled. I wanted to share a quote from the preface that I believe will engage you and make you want to read this volume as well: The idea of my becoming a...
I've had accountability partners, aka goal buddies, for years. It's what keeps me on track on a daily basis. I also have a Mastermind group that I've been part of for a couple of decades. That's a monthly accountability structure for the bigger things I want to...
Much of my journey as a Soul Proprietor has been directed by signs from the Universe that I'm going in the right direction. I believe in The Secret, the Law of Attraction and Earl Nightingale's Strangest Secret. Each of these doctrines points to becoming what you...
When you get a great idea, how do YOU begin executing? It's been a long time coming, but I realize that I do have a process that may seem cumbersome to the onlooker, but it works for me as I distill down from the lightbulb moment to 'opening day.' I'd like to share...
There are so many things I love about working with my Mastermind Intensive women business owners. We met all day last Friday, and the excitement in the room was electric. We've been together for 4 months now. Since each meeting starts off with goals met, the...
I joined La Leche League in my last month of pregnancy with my first child. I knew that I wanted to breastfeed my baby and needed to learn how. That was the premise of the meetings--to place yourself amongst other breastfeeding women to learn and observe the in's...
My move to NYC has vaguely resembled my first birth experience. Before my eldest was born, I threw myself into a study of pregnancy, the birth process and breastfeeding via reading, enrolling in Lamaze classes and attending La Leche League meetings. I was...
My father, who was in retail for most of his career, wrote a book called the Savvy Shopper. He had been a department store executive and knew the ins and outs of how to get the best price on anything. My siblings and I still rib each other when asking how much...
I called Katie Settel today to ask her why she signed up for my fall Remarkable Women Mastermind Intensive. I knew she'd be an outstanding contributor to the group as she recently made a huge leap in her business. Katie took out a lease in an old factory in...
I heard a wonderful podcast last week--a story told by a woman who participated in a trial drug for her depression. She was given a month's worth of pills and a very serious warning that eating chocolate while taking these pills could cause temporary or permanent...
There's a spiritual principle: when you begin to give what you think you are missing, you stop missing it. I'm putting that into practice on a business level. I so want to be around women who are passionate about what they do that I've created a format that I wish...
I received this testimonial from a client I worked with a few years ago. I was so happy that she shared it with me that I asked her permission to share it (anonymously) with you. I hope you feel as inspired and motivated as I did reading it. Short story: I’m...
