My Leadership tribe (the Jaguars) had a community call on Friday to reconnect after several months. We were talking about our edges--what each of us is working on in our coaching businesses--and what new identity we're growing into. I love the concept of edges...
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...
An article in the New York Times caught my eye over the weekend: Tech Entrepreneurs Share Sentiments in Therapy That Aren't Fit for Twitter. I read every word. If there's anything that I stand for in my business it's this: giving voice to the sentiments about being...
Lesson 80 in the new edition of my book, Soul Proprietor, is "Doing nothing by appointment is essential and energizing." I wasn't planning on using this lesson today because productivity is on my mind. I've just come from a one-on-one training at Apple to really...
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...

Thoughts of coulda, shoulda, woulda flashed through my head last Thursday evening as I waited for the endless rainstorm to convert to snow as had been predicted. I had postponed my event for that night after hearing the dire predictions measured in feet of snow,...
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...
I was helping my good friend Aimee with her vision statement over the weekend. For those of you who have never participated in this exercise, I highly recommend that you write one to give yourself clarity about what you want to have in your life and/or business....
I am sitting in my living room in tears having just watched Tiger Woods apology on TV. I am blown away by his candor, his admission of his transgressions and his taking full responsibility for his behavior. There was never any doubt that the press had uncovered a...
