  • Day 388 – Summer Living!

    I always love a good question when facilitating a group. During my chat on ageism, one participant said, “I wonder how many summers I have left.” Mic drops here… Summer is a short season that we all welcome with open arms and enjoy with family and friends. It’s a season to live your best and…

  • Day 387 – The Age of Wisdom

    I have the pleasure of discussing ageism in the workplace with HR experts this afternoon.

Loneliness in the workplace can have a negative impact on employee well-being and productivity. As an executive, leader, manager or colleague, there are several ways you can…

  • Day 377 – Habit or Fate?

    This quote is what we all struggle with and want in our lives. A recent CXO asked me when we started coaching, “Can we do some life coaching as well Deb?” Coaching is for the whole person. Life shows up in our work and work certainly show up in our life. Carl Jung’s perspective on…

  • Day 376 – Leaning In

When leaders continue to learn and…
