Meditation for Mental Health and More

May is both Mental Health Month and Meditation Month, and while we are nearing the end of the month, I want to discuss the connection between these two important topics. Meditation can be a great tool for reducing anxiety and stress, which directly impacts one’s mental health. I’ve been a daily meditator for the past five years, after being a crisis or sporadic meditator for 2-3 years,...

How R You?

We are all learning to adjust to the new way of life, with worlds colliding – work, home, parenting, and educating our children. I’m sharing four R’s with you in an effort to provide you with some helpful information during this challenging time: Routines What new routines are you creating with your family?

Complimentary Coaching Support for HR Professionals

Although I recently left my 25+ year HR career to focus on leadership coaching full time, I remember too well the challenges of working in HR. I can only imagine the stress of the last week or two, preparing for Covid-19 and putting policies and procedures into place. And I know your other HR responsibilities...

Go in the Direction of Yes

I’ve received an outpouring of support and positive feedback about taking a leap from corporate to coaching and entrepreneurship.

Creating Your Vision for the New Year

I love the new year! There’s something exciting about having a fresh start, a blank slate, and the chance to try something new. A brand new decade feels even more exciting and open for possibilities! What intentions or goals do you have for the new year? I like starting the new year with goals,...

Grateful and Thankful

For the past several years, I’ve had a daily gratitude practice. I start each day writing in my gratitude journal, and I end each day reflecting on what made the day amazing. In the beginning I would physically write in a journal, and now I’ve hopped on the technology bandwagon, and I use an app to track...

Fall Forward

Rather than fall back, why not try falling forward? What do you keep putting off doing that would take your life or career to the next level? Is there something that keeps nagging at you to change, but you’re feeling stuck on how to move forward? I recently met with a potential new client who is trying to...

Pivot to present

I had a client, Patrick (not his real name), who was stuck in his story of “not enough”—not smart enough, educated enough or experienced enough for the big, new job he had. The more the story snaked through his head, the more he listened, and the more he listened, the more he started to believe the narrative. The worthiness story is, unfortunately, a common one. Self-doubt creeps in, and left...
