You don’t need to move faster.
You need to reduce unnecessary risk.

When your decision affects income, reputation, or stability,
pause with structure before you act.

  • Do You Know Your True Worth?

    This statement – Charge what you’re worth seems straightforward and simple. Except often we don’t really know what we’re worth! And why is that? You see most times we don’t consider what comes naturally to us as valuable. We dismiss our innate talents and often wrongly assume that since it is so simple or easy…

  • Today is D-Day!

    Donald Trump will not be impeached. We are relying on facts, logic, principles, right and wrong. Unfortunately this is not at the seat of decision-making…after all…if that were the case…he would NOT be in office. My thoughts this morning as I listen to MSNBC journalists interview senators to gauge how the vote will go. If…

  • Practice Asking: “What if…?”

    I used to think…w I used to think when I was much younger that I was lucky. I also remember having big, bold, audacious dreams. Then…as time passed…my dream circle shrank in size. I became afraid to let my mind expand. I cut off the blood supply to my imagination and entered a room with…

  • Let Down that Heavy Load

    As I pry my fingers off of all the hurt I’ve been carrying…some from perhaps when I was maybe two or three…the actual chain of events…vague…but the pain…raw and real…I’m thinking that we can only let go when we learn. I’m not suggesting painstakingly rehashing events. What I am suggesting is that we let our…

  • How do you Heal?

    Often we need to take a step back before moving forward. Most of all we need to listen to what our soul is trying to tell us. Crying clears everything up for me…it washes away my pain…and moves all mental debris clogging up my ability to see. I need space often to think and create.…

  • What Stories are you Telling about your Life?

    What story seeds are you planting? We are all telling a story about our health, our finances, our relationships…What story will you tell? Will it be one that is heroic and empowering? You can be honest about all that you have experienced and done, yet still write a story that will help you feel that…

  • Laughter is Necessary

    When was the last time you had a good laugh? You know the one where your belly hurts…tears are streaming down your cheeks…and you’re yelling “Staaaaaap!!!” Adulting can be so serious at times yet laughter really is medicinal. Anne Lamotte had an interesting way with words. Carbonated holiness. All emotions are important. Laughter is important.…

  • What it is to be Human…

    Judge not. Assume nothing. We don’t really know what is going on about any situation in someone’s life. On top of which sometimes that person is already giving themselves a hard time. I am finally learning and understanding to be gentle with me. Lord knows how often I feel negative and act on those negative…

  • The Travesty: To KNOW and not to DO

    We feel good when we have knowledge under our belt. We believe in the inspiring and thought provoking memes we share. But are we intentionally practicing or do we think we know? Years ago, I heard a guest speaker at an event say: to know and not to do, is not to know. This phrase…

  • Recommit to your Goals…Daily!

    Every day we need to recommit to our goals and dreams…to the contracts we’ve made with ourselves…our intentions….what we choose to continue, alter, begin or stop! At the seat of it all is what we are thinking…while we are doing. The story we are telling is far more important than any action we take. When…
