  • Day 176 – The Joys

    As we come to the end of another week and another month, I am basking in the joys of life. My granddaughter E is getting baptized this weekend. Sadly, I am unable to go but I will hold the vision of this moment in my heart. There are so many moments in life we can’t…

  • Day 170 – Nancy

    I will remember her name for my life. She was my last female boss. I worked very hard in my job. I came in early. I stayed late. I worked through my lunch. I was happy, a team player and was willing to do and learn everything I could. I was 24 years old. At…

  • Day 167 – What’s your thing?

    ”The things that make me different are the things that make me.” -A.A. Milne This quote had me stop. I also wanted to reread it. We are all individuals. We are unique and different. These individual differences make us who we are. Have you ever thought what’s your thing? What makes you different? What difference…

  • Day 166 – Daily Love

    Each day I sit to write this blog. It’s a daily love for me. Writing daily keeps my writing muscle strong. They say the hardest part of writing is actually sitting down to do it. Here I am at Day 166. I am proud of my commitment to write. To be creative. To have an…

  • Day 162 – The Balance of Life

    “Life is a balance between holding on and letting go.” -Rumi One of the best things I have learned from my coach and mentors has been to slow down to do more. It certainly sounds counterintuitive, however, I embraced this great advice in my 30’s and 40’s and still audit myself now in my 50’s.…

  • Day 159 – Observation

    As you enter this week, allow yourself the time and space to observe. I sat with amazing people today. The ages ranged from 20s – 90s. The moments. The stories. The beauty of observation. Listening to the different perspectives. Lives lived differently. Decades of experience and change. The simply pleasure of moments in observation. 💙

  • Day 156 – Lunch Presence

    When my friends need me, I am there. I change, delete, do whatever I need to do with my schedule. My friend lost her husband 10 month ago. Today’s lunch was about presence. Talking. Listening. Observing. Feeling. Crying. Reminiscing. All the feels. My friend is grieving at a visceral level. She said, ”I need some…

  • Day 149 – Patience

    I’ve been thinking about patience a lot lately. When we look at what is happening globally, it’s truly overwhelming. A deep breath. A pause. Patience. Our richest commodities in life are patience and time. They truly go together in all aspects. It’s up to us to keep them aligned. 💙

  • Day 147 – A Revisited Thought

    I really enjoy writing this daily blog. I share it with the world, yet it’s really for my own heart work and thought leadership. Today, I had the pleasure of having lunch at a place that has been on my life list, yes, not a bucket list, life list. It was a tea room in…

  • Day 146 – The Voice

    How often do you listen to the voice? Yes, your voice. There is a story in each of us. Only some are brave enough to listen and share. Is that you? 💙
