I am calling this latest chapter of my love life Love Potion #9. I am half joking and half roasting myself for being at it again. I am back on the hunt for the one. I have been here before and I know this chapter won’t last long. I know I will find a man […]

These days and weeks, all across the world, students and educators are returning to school after the summer. Ideally, to a safe, healthy, in-person learning and teaching environment having emerged from the pandemic even stronger than before. But what if our reality – as students, teachers, or parents – looks very different from that? More […]

I love food. I can’t get enough of cooking meals for friends and family. I feel creative and skillful in the kitchen, and am in awe of the way new recipes can give you insight into different cultures without having to leave your own home (a bonus when you’re stuck inside for weeks on end…). […]

How are you? When’s the last time you answered that in ALL honesty? To tell the truth… WE DON’T. It’s true. We lie. We fluff. We omit. We under and over-exaggerate. And, no one wants to be a liar, marry one, give birth to one, vote for one, it’s why we hide the fact that […]

It’s a bright, warm, sunny Saturday morning in May and I’m ready for one of my favorite hobbies, gardening. I’ve got my plants, compost, mulch, shovel, water, fertilizer, and green thumb ready to dig some holes and plant some greenery. I kiss my wife and head out into the morning light ready to have some […]

  Hunter, a high school teacher in Connecticut, decided she wanted to have more fun this summer. Instead of passively hoping it would happen, she wrote out her dream for what that fun would look like. A mere months later, she is flying around town in a BMW convertible, expanding her heart and home to […]

Sometimes, I get so involved in the process of coaching that I forget to stop and smell the roses. Until a client writes, telling me all about it! My friend and client Amy Butler once shared a beautiful account of her journey through The Handel Method, and I wanted to share it with you because […]

In honor of men’s Mental Health Week, thought we’d TY one on. No! Not get drunk. Share a video from Tyreek Moore, talking about his…wait for it.. judgmental trait. Bet you can’t relate! If you’re human, you’re judgmental. If you want to feel happy, proud and inspired, do more than know you’ve got that trait, […]

“I always wanted to learn the guitar. Maybe THIS summer.” Or…. maybe not. It’s a shame how quickly we dismiss our heartfelt dreams and relegate them to the “someday” bucket list.  Why is that?  We have many reasonable-sounding excuses. Work is hectic, there’s never enough time, the kids, the spouse, the Facebook , etc. Reasonable, […]

Sometimes someone tells you something you just don’t like!  Like…your partner tells you they want to change jobs….your kid tells you they want to dye their hair…your parents tell you that they’re not getting vaccinated. Don’t know about you (what a funny expression for a life coach to use, no?) but the first thing I […]

Looking for a (late!) gift for Mother’s Day? How about changing your mother’s and your life forever, while cleaning up the messes in your relationship with her? All with just one letter that you write and read to her. Sounds good, doesn’t it? So where’s the catch? You need to get REAL. I mean really […]

Telltale signs you need to read this blog: You got honked at today. [And not in the woo hoo, you’re cute way.] You found yourself turning down the radio in the car as it was disrupting the loud conversations you’re having with yourself in your head. You hope you get your period either any minute […]
