Every moment matters. I know you know that and yet, you don’t. Or maybe you just forget. I know that I forget. Some moments don’t seem consequential. Sometimes it’s the most mundane moments that conjure up the best memories. I’m visiting family for a few days this week. I only come back to my hometown […]

At a recent meeting with my team, I asked them a tough question: “Where do I need to get out of the way?” They were probably as surprised to hear it as I was surprised to say it. And before you think my motivations were wonderful and selfless, let me assure you that was far […]
Just a short distance from my house is new neighborhood. House after ginormous house with immaculate landscaping and well-manicured lawns compels you to envy the luxury of these beautiful homes.

We’re always up for a good adventure so our little two-wheeler was loads of fun until one evening as we were finishing dinner we looked up to see driving rain pelting the windows of the restaurant.

I’m currently putting together another group of dynamic women leaders for my next coaching group. I would love for you to be a part of it! Some of my best leadership development has occurred in the context of a small group of peers who find themselves wrestling with the challenges of daily life as a […]
