How Does She Do Everything?!?!
I've been getting a lot of questions lately from friends. They think I've gone insane or somehow miraculously found extra hours in the week that don't exist to other people. I'm involved in....a lot. I always have been. I'm happier and more productive when I have a lot on my plate. Many people do. The… Continue reading How Does She Do Everything?!?!

I… Continue reading The Conundrum of Competition and Comparison
Own Your Story

I worked the long hours, traveled a lot. I climbed the ladder. He asked me why I was still working… Continue reading Own Your Story

I haven't left the house in 54 hours and when I do tomorrow I may have forgotten how to drive. But, it's… Continue reading The Perfect Storm
Show Up and Surprise Yourself
I've been meaning to write this blog for almost two months, but....life. So even though the story is from the Winter Olympics, I still wanted to share it because I find it valuable. And hope you will too. We were sledding in our backyard after 10 inches of snow graced us with its presence. The… Continue reading Show Up and Surprise Yourself
Random Things No One Tells You
I was out to happy hour last week with a friend and I randomly commented that everyone knows about the freshman 15, but no one mentions the 35/10. You know, the 10 pounds that randomly hangs on your thighs and hips with a grip that gives Wonder Woman a run for her money. And she… Continue reading Random Things No One Tells You
