You So Got This
I was working earlier on a big project, one that’s taking me out of my comfort zone. The deadline is charging fast and I’m freaking out more than a little. Sitting at my desk, I noticed that my left leg was bouncing like one of those old-school paddle board balls…

Courage or the Comfort Zone – What’ll It Be?
I bought a computer yesterday. Brand spankin’ new, for the first time ever, because I’d always had either a work-issued model or a hand-me-down. (Also, because I’m a notorious tightwad, not to mention a Luddite.) I had a long debate with the voices in my head before deciding what to…

New Year’s Resolutions: A Blank Canvas for Your Masterpiece
It may not surprise you to know I’m someone who LOVES making New Year’s resolutions. I look forward to the process each and every year. I actually get GIDDY about it. There’s something about the inherent possibility of a blank canvas that gives me hope. I see it just waiting…

Staying True To Your Changed Self – Even If Others Take It Personally

What’s Your Amazing Talent?
Just wrapped up a week of housesitting for a friend while he took his family to Disney World. He thought I was doing him a favor by staying there, when the truth was that I got five nights alone in a Tempur-Pedic bed – not to mention the world’s largest…

Leaping Into Your New Reality
I don’t know when this happened, but here it is Oct. 18. Last time I checked, it was July… and, the time before that, January. Time feels like it’s moving at an unfathomable speed; weeks seem to flutter by before I’ve even had the chance to greet them. I used…

Saying To Hell with Fear and Hello to Self-Acceptance
It’s amazing how having professional photos taken will trigger the pipsqueak twerp voice inside your head, setting that thing off in ways you thought were long gone. Thighs! Teeth! A zit! Oh, and don’t even get me started on the topic of hair. Because I have a complicated relationship with…
