My primary reason for visiting Savannah earlier this week was to visit my good friend Meredith Gray in her new digs. She moved from Connecticut last fall after one too many winters in the Northeast. Coincidentally, I'd recently heard from another dear friend in GA,...
I spent the early part of this week visiting my good friend Meredith Gray at her new bungalow in Savannah. We invited a fellow Savannah-ite to join us for breakfast Tuesday morning at the Sentient Bean. Carlette Cormier and I had met in 2003--I as a speaker,...
An unusual kind of bonding went on last night during my Remarkable Women's Network event. As each woman business owner introduced herself, she also mentioned her own particular brand of gremlin voice. Heads nodded as one woman talked about having to be perfect,...
While on the Holistic Holiday at Sea a few weeks ago, I had the privilege of hearing many experts speak. One of the most compelling classes I attended was titled The 5 Essentials of Health given by Christina Pirello. Her own personal journey to health is amazing....
Here's one I'd never heard before. As I've mentioned, I'm incredibly excited to be speaking at the Stamford TEDx event next month. I had a conference call with the organizer yesterday, and the question of attire came up. Now, I've heard of casual, black tie,...
"Unless you're bleeding, don't come in for the next hour," I would tell my daughter Laura back in my home office/egg decorating days. That was my inelegant way of establishing privacy and quiet time for my work. I didn't have better tools back then and blush at how...
I learned during the webinar course I took last spring that to become really successful and to expand your reach in the world, creating Joint Venture (JV) relationships would be critical. To be honest, I had no idea what the instructor was talking about. But I hung...
I'm back from 7 glorious days on the MSC Poesia attending the Holistic Holiday at Sea cruise to the Caribbean. It would be hard to isolate a highlight of this experience, because it was day after day of education, meeting fascinating people, eating exquisitely...
I love watching a conversion. In the first module of my webinar series I talk about creating a vision for your business/life. I offer two methods for doing that--a vision board or a written statement. This week I had the opportunity to review visions with one of my...
I met with a group of women business owners recently, where one participant whom I know and adore, shared a challenge about how crazy-busy she is. She felt frantic and incapable of prioritizing. The proverbial fires were all burning equally in her arena. Taking...
I'm back! The most significant takeaway from my wonderful trip to Mexico and California was that for the entire week at Rancho La Puerta I was fully present and never thought about home, work, responsibilities, finances, 2012 or anything other than what I was...
I finished reading my first book on a Nook last week--the weighty 642-page biography of Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson. (I want to re-thank Tessa McGovern for inviting me to her echook event at Barnes & Noble a few months back. It was there that I won the raffle...
On my drive from Tucson, where the retreat was held en route to the airport in Phoenix, I saw a spectacular rainbow--in Arizona! Over the desert. Not what you'd expect. That pretty much sums up my fabulous experience at Miraval with 100+ MORE readers plus the...
When I signed up for the Meet the Editors event at Miraval Spa in Tucson last June, I had no idea how well-timed this getaway retreat would be. These last few weeks have been intensely full and productive with my recent free webinar and subsequent sell-out of the...
Yesterday was a glorious day in CT, especially compared to last Sunday when we were all cleaning up from that freaky fall blizzard and subsequent power outages. This day was sunny, blue skies and the perfect temperature for taking in a multitude of offerings. I...
