The Power of Saying “Yes”

In a world full of "no's," and "not enough's," why is it so important that we start saying "yes" to ourselves? We all live with choice. What choices are you making?  If you truly said "yes" to yourself in every aspect of your life, what would that look like? What would saying "yes" to yourself look like today? And not "yes"…

The “A” Word

Long ago, I wrote a post called the "V" Word. It explored Brené Brown's talk on vulnerability and its integral part in leading a whole-hearted life.

Time Traveler

I just finished rewatching one of my favorite movies, It's About Time. It's not ruining the plot to tell you it's about a man who has the ability to travel back in time, but only to moments of his life that he's already lived. What if you had an opportunity to relive any day in your life? Or to undo…

What Can We Learn from Loss?

How does it feel to lose? Last night's Super Bowl Game was rough for Falcons fans. It's easy to feel defeated when your loyalties are on the losing side of history. After a big win, most of us know how to celebrate. We come together, we toast, we eat, we dance, we laugh, we unite. In loss, we don't always…
