Is it luck? Maybe… sometimes. But in general, no. Success is years and years of hard work with blood, sweat and yes, tears. And even then, it’s a daily choice. Here are 3 things you need to do every day if you plan to succeed. Be uncomfortable.…yep, stretch. If you live in your comfort zone, forget it. You will be…
I was recently riding in a Lyft on the way to the airport. I had a young friendly driver who asked me if I was traveling for personal or business purposes. We eventually got around to my “profession” and I explained I was a business coach who worked with my clients on business strategy and a marketing plan. What was…
Have you heard the term “ghosting”. In the dating world, it’s when you’ve been in touch with someone, whether just online or maybe in person, and they disappear and become a “ghost”. And then the similarity dawned on me….. Are you a ghost in your business? Are you ghosting your clients and prospects? Here is what I mean….You make a…
2019 is just about 10 days away – and some are wondering where 2018 went. Yes, time seems to be moving faster and faster, but as a business owner, the only way to get ahead of the curve is to think outside the box, NOW.
Where do you have your greatest ideas? I used to think the shower. Yes, I still have some great ones there, but something about flying on Southwest seems to garner some BIG ideas.

Do you ever question yourself? Do you make decisions from fear and doubt? Do you wonder if you are good enough, smart enough, pretty enough, healthy enough? Here is the thing…. you can. It may not be exactly how you imagine it, picture it or think it should be – but you can. That’s all you need to believe. You…
COMMIT! A word that many seem to be afraid of, unfortunately. But commitment leads to success. No one ever said I’m not committed – and then made a million bucks, or lost 75 pounds, or found the success they were seeking. No one. Not even the luckiest woman alive. Let’s break it down: C: is for Consistent. We need to…

The granddaughter of a Presbyterian minister, I was raised going to church every Sunday. Bible study, Sunday School, confirmation – it was a must.

Does the song by The Who start playing in your head when you hear WHO ARE YOU? It did for me. But it’s actually a serious question. Are you showing up as you – or someone else? You know if you are trying to be someone other than who you really are at your core, things won’t truly “flow” as…
My woulda, coulda, shoulda questions came up again this morning. I was reading a book that talked about living your best life, not waiting for the “perfect” moment, and being really present in everything that you do. “Never waste a day” was the author’s comment and that got me thinking!
