This week, I shared a story about a travel, visiting to a new community, a yoga class, and a shirt gone astray. It may sound a bit juicer than it was, but it also could have been a lot juicer than it was, if I’d lost my “ish” like I was tempted to do when […]
“No-Fail” Friday: Wish you well Read More »
A few weeks ago, I was traveling in another state, and caught a yoga class at a studio I had been to a few times years ago. It’s a beautiful space, and I remembered the teacher when I saw her name on the schedule. I was in vacay-mode and ready to relax. I arrived, rolled
There’s a decades-old saying in the world of communications (where I started my career) that “the medium is the message.” In other words, what’s been said is only as effective as the source is captivating. What and how you see affect what you hear, and what you believe. When it comes to the messages you’re

My #currentmood has me contemplating perception, possibilities, and the limits we place on ourselves when we decide what can work based on what’s worked in the past, or for other people, or in stories we’ve read, or heard about. I’m less interested in deeply ingrained patterns at the moment than I am in creating new
It feels so good, though, doesn’t it? Sometimes, anyway. That moment when you realize the person across the room from you is thinking the same thing about that other person, who just did something you both thought was super weird.

Maybe this quote resonates with you on a deeper level today, or maybe it just kinda feels like the week you’ve had. Whether you’re going through an epic transformation, and could use a reminder that yes, it is going to be more than ok, or if you’re just ready for this week’s grand finale, take a
You know that saying about “getting out of your own way”? Turns out Ralph was onto it way before your mom, or your 9th grade teacher, or your basketball coach ever were. We’re so good at trying protecting ourselves from the awkward, painful and ridiculous, that we often count ourselves out before we even take
A little inspiration as you start your week, hopefully headed into work that makes you feel aligned with purpose, and capable of impact that’s meaningful to you. If not, quotes like this may make you feel a little uncomfortable. That’s ok, though, because that discomfort could be the beginning of something good. Being able to

We human beings love control and like to think it’s possible to get our arms completely around the course of our lives. We’re always trying to “get on top of things,” so “by next week (next month, next season…never) things will have calmed down.” But, if there’s one thing that will show you who’s
