From A Moment To A Revolutionary Movement

Celebrating Empathy This Holiday Season

Life is messy. It has the tendency to kick the livin’ snot out of us. And sometimes, we run out of gas. It is during these times that we need the supportive people in our lives to step in.

Peace Out

Yes, goodbyes are hard. The time leading up to them is often even harder as we wrestle with what is working and what is not, and the temptation to get out of dodge as quickly as possible weighs on us.

Caveat Emptor (Buyer Beware!)

Not all executive coaches are created equal. Read this to discover what 4 things you need to know before retaining your coach.

Being Radical

Self-care is ultimately about living well which includes not negating responsibilities and being mindful of our impact on others.

Nothing Changes If Nothing Changes

Wake Up Sleepy Head

As a clinically trained psychotherapist-turned-executive-coach-leadership consultant, I have the best job in the world: helping people to wake up, address their get-in-the-way-stuff, and lead from a place of wholeness.
