Do you remember when you were a child…and dreamed of what you’d become?
I grew up in the days of Lynda Carter’s Wonder Woman, not the Gadot version (though she’s good, too). Carter’s WW was the perfect combination of intelligence, beauty, strength, and...
I have been thinking a lot about the mind and its power, lately.
I am fascinated by the ability to change my entire mood and outlook just by initiating a shift in my thinking pattern. Let me explain…
A couple of weeks ago I had a bad episode. I call it an episode because it didn’t...
It’s Book Review Friday!
I couldn’t wait to tell you about the book that I finished this month! But before I do, I must make a confession…
I went completely off the rails from my book list. That may not seem like a big deal, at first…however if you know me and...
The last decade of economic turbulence and technological shifts has transformed many work expectations and norms. The admonishment of my parents and those of my generation was to “do well in college, find a job in your field” to build a lifelong career and make as much money as...
Among the resolutions bent toward healthy eating and exercise, many began this year with commitments to better financial management. More specifically, saving money was among the top three pledges for 2018. However, like its cohorts, making money changes can be an uphill battle for plenty of...

As I did a review of where I am and compared it to where I had PLANNED to be, I didn't feel celebratory. I felt the rise of disappointment in my chest…and if I am being completely honest with you (as you know I always...
Oprah Winfrey. Arianna Huffington. Tory Burch.
When you hear these names, what do you think?
Extreme, unattainable success?
Once in a lifetime triumph?
But wait…we have seen all three rise during this one lifetime. That’s more like, thrice in a lifetime. Isn’t it? And, they are...
“Sexy?” You wonder.
Yes, you read right. SEXY.
The word arouses a myriad of definitions and images. From provocative to X-rated. I’m certain you can think of a few. Pulitzer Prize winner, Michael Dirda, captures it best. He describes sexy as powerful because “it shuttles...
There is no shortage of practical information in cyberspace about money management. Spend less than you earn; save at least ten percent of your net income; give a tithe or ten percent to your church or charity of choice; buy low, sell high.
There are also surveys to determine how financially fit...
Before the New Year began, like you, I made some commitments to myself with respect to my personal and business development. Most of my personal development plans connect with my business development because I see the two as symbiotic. For example, I committed to walking every day. This, of...
