Effficiency versus impact
During this morning’s quiet time, I was reviewing my business marketing efforts and contemplating whether I in fact was clear about my vision and what I wanted to be ‘known’ for.

All Things DO Work Together For GOOD!
Do you ever feel as if your life is operating in cycles – the same cycle? You start and go through phases only to circle back to where you started? Do you feel as if you’re not making ANY progress? Or is it that everything was going really really great for you and then suddenly:…

Contrast can be a POWERFUL reminder
Was chatting with someone today who survived two surgeries and breast cancer. She was telling me that during her first surgery, she remembered how painful it was to move just to answer the phone.

Do Women Know What They Want?
I was having breakfast recently with an old co-worker turned mastermind colleague and friend. We were exchanging what men like to call ‘war’ stories of what was going on in our businesses and lives and what we were presently ‘battling’ with.
