When I attended Camp Chinqueka, a sleepaway camp for girls, back in the last century, I met Cookie, aka Marisabina, Russo. We were great friends back then and re-discovered our relationship when she attended my alma mater, Mount Holyoke College. She truly is my...
When was the last time you were thanked for unsubscribing from a newsletter or distribution list? For me, it was on Sunday. Since I've arrived back in NY, I've been listening to my heart and gut and noticing what I feel like doing, versus what I should be doing....
When I was a kid I thought that to be a grown-up meant knowing how to drive a stick shift car, speaking French and living in a Victorian. I realize these date me, but they represented a worldview that felt like it had my name on it. So did 'sailing around the...
With just one week to go before my departure, I've wound down my groups and have only a few more coaching calls before I climb aboard the MV Explorer in Kobe, Japan. My final preparations include getting my tax info off to my accountant, converting dollars to yens...
While everyone else is scurrying about buying greens to trim their staircases and mantles, wrapping gifts to put under the tree, and baking fruit cakes, I've been busy tending to my list for my upcoming travel around the world amidst the Christmas chaos. Being...
Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Mine was perfection, meaning that it included the people I love (minus one sick grandchild and her parents), amazing food prepared by my chef nephew and my sister (at whose knee his passion was quickened), easy traffic to...
Two women drive 30 minutes to visit a store that had recently been recommended. It's a gorgeous, sunny New England Tuesday afternoon. It's almost noon, they park, walk to the shop and see this sign on the door. For those of you who may not have the opportunity to...
It didn't take Lisa Corrado long to decide that being in business for 10 years was worthy of celebration. Her Mastermind Group urged her to nail down a date and get the invitation out to her happy clients and supporters. Selfishly, we all wanted to party with Lisa....
I received a package in the mail on October 15. I didn't recall having ordered anything from amazon.com, but there was this heavy carton waiting for me. Inside the box was a book called Humans of New York. I was still confused. I'd come across a marvelous website...
My physical therapist*, that's who! I told my weekly support team that I've been spending five minutes a day crawling around the gym in my building to re-align my back and that it was working beautifully. I've been feeling terrific and wanted to share it with them....
Preparing for my Soul Proprietor Community call recently I included words from Ecclesiastes (aka Simon and Garfunkel's Turn, Turn, Turn) which says, "there is a time to refrain from embracing." We live in such a to-do culture that when things aren't happening fast...
Why re-invent the wheel when Oprah put it into words for me? Two sentences in the recent edition of O Magazine fit me to a T. It's my dream to encourage other people to connect the dots of spirituality for themselves, to recognize the fullness of their being and...
The first person to sign up for my virtual Mastermind Group lives on Martha's Vineyard. She's been a client of mine before and appreciates being connected with other women entrepreneurs who are on a mission, as she is. It had been virtually impossible for her to...
I had a glorious 24 hours with my Mastermind Intensive group Sunday-Monday. We gathered at a member's home the afternoon of the 8th to create vision boards, have a potlluck and reunite after the summer. I was as much a guest as everyone else, basking in the warmth...
