Sitting and thinking about all the different things to write for your Sunday morning read is such a gift. And it is a delight to carve out something that might cause you to pause. This week, someone paused ME. They asked me to tell them concretely what it means to change your thinking. For the […]
So you want to add some excitement to your brain cells? Lean in, okay? Did you know there is an organization called babyboomer.org? Chances are high; you don’t because it is barely a year old. Imagine! A group launched by babyboomers for babyboomers is barely a year old. What on earth took so long? The […]
It’s time I apologize to the Federation of Men. Once and for all. You see, I used to think men were dumb; women more intelligent when admitting their inability to stay on a path. Because we all know, a man never gets lost. Among some of his better lines, I think the “I am exploring,” […]
About your dream. I relearned another lesson this week. And you may find it helpful. I’ve been researching and taping several upcoming episodes of my podcast Exploring Compassionate Capitalism.

We might be two hours away from unveiling the new website. Excitement is in the air! On Wednesday morning, my […]
I’ve been having several conversations lately that are ending in tears. Clients and friends alike. It seems the green-eyed monster is still causing havoc in lives. Whether you refer to it as your personal streak of jealousy, your spate of frustration over not having or being enough or just that ’damn green-eyed monster,’ I’d like […]
