Each of us has lessons to learn at any given time in our lives. The Universe delivers opportunities often cloaked as annoyances or challenges calling us to take the next step in our development. It's very easy for me to see and coach others' growth edges. It's not...
Since last Monday I have gathered with twelve different groups, five of which I created. I call this walking my talk because I believe it's vitally important to spend more time than ever in the midst of positive people. The group pictured above was taken Monday...
I held my first ever paid networking event last Thursday night, which was graciously hosted by Jill Jaysen of Center Stage Theatre Company in Westport. We were at capacity -Â 30 women business owners attending. I have an exceptional database of entrepreneurial...
I remember in my early parenting days hearing moms complain that all their two year old would eat was hot dogs and spaghetti. I tried to picture the toddler shopping at the A & P and filling his cart with Hebrew National franks and Ronzoni pasta. Of course, I'm...
That title's a little misleading. I actually learned a lesson last week and had it reinforced by hearing a story about Lauren Bacall this week. I was invited to be included as part of a new web presence, which shall remain nameless, if I acted quickly and got in on...
