Last week I had the opportunity to attend a networking event that was really transformational and inspiring. I was so excited to attend the event because this was an opportunity for me to get outside of my comfort zone in a social setting. I’ve mentioned before how...
I spent a lot of time last year planting seeds and learning how to garden. Not in the literal sense, but more figuratively. Planting seeds are much like having a vision. When you have a vision you work towards it and put time and effort into creating...
Recently, I have been bombarded with questions related to fear. It's one of the frequent topics I discuss with my clients. Most people know exactly what it is that they want to do. "I want to be a motivational speaker. I want to write a book." The problem? They don't...
Recently, I had the opportunity to connect with a 77-year-old man, who has far more wisdom than any words can ever convene. At the very beginning of our conversation, he asked, “Well, who are you? Tell me about yourself.” I began to tell him the story of...
