We have just a few days left this year! Did this year seem fast or slow for you? Long or short? For me, it’s both. So much has happened this year it seems the year has to have been long in order for these things to have all happened: Started writing at the Wing in … Continued
One of the things I have thought a lot about this year is what is really necessary. Things. Words. Conversations. Thoughts. Concerns. What is REALLY necessary? Very little. My experience in taking the time to consider this is that there are very few things that are necessary. Very few things that really matter. I found this … Continued
“Make the past a blessing.” Zvi Ish-Shalom This was something I heard this morning and it really struck me. As I write this in the late afternoon, it is still with me. This year I have dug deep into the past- way past, and am now weeding through my more “current” past. A couple of times … Continued
One of my favorite shows to watch is The Amazing Race. The current season has been interesting to watch- more than usual- because it was filmed back in 2018! No masks! Crowds! It was jarring to me to see it and to realize that we have a new normal. It was the same way I … Continued

Whether we have gone kicking and screaming or embraced it, 2020 has caused all to grow- a little or a lot. The growing and learning are constant unless we stick … Continued
YES!!! How often do you say it like that? Bold and with lots of exclamation points!!!??? Throughout the month of August I have been sharing my theme of YES!! This week I want to go a bit deeper about the yes you say to yourself and what it might lead to. In my coaching practice I use the … Continued
