While we have progressed in so many ways, through technology and access to more information, we also have regressed. Everywhere you can see a prevalent energy of entitlement and a lack of accountability present.
In many cases, it feels like we’ve gone back 50 or 100 years from all the progress initially made. Something seems to...
Let’s face it, we live in a culture of perceived entitlement these days. It seems like less and less leaders are taking real accountability, and that more and more people seem to think it’s all about them.
And, it’s not just the leaders of big businesses or elected officials in our government, the sense of entitlement...
As leaders, executives, entrepreneurs, and business owners, we often get told and believe that “it’s lonely at the top.”
That the higher you go and grow, the more you stand alone.
It’s competitive, cut-throat, and a dog-eat-dog world. Only the best will choose to play the game, for it comes with great sacrifices...
The notion of time management is a bit absurd, if you ask me. It requires that you look at every hour of the day and try to match the “right” things to fill those spaces. It’s this plug-and-play approach to our lives.
Most of the conditioning we receive is that we should keep our calendars full. That time is a wasting, and...
How you start your your day is everything!
Look, I’m not a morning person. Never have been. It takes me a while to get moving and get the blood flowing. Especially this time of year, when the air is crisper and chillier. I would much rather stay buried under my piles of blankets, snuggled up next to my sweet little Ernie.

It happens to all of us. Those hard-hitting, sometimes out of nowhere, rock-bottom moments that literally bring us to our knees.
Trust me, I have had plenty of these throughout my lifetime.
They have become what I call: defining moments. As these particular moments are the portals that open up and ask me to look in the mirror in order...
In our current fast-paced, overly competitive, and profit-driven landscape, the pursuit of success often overshadows the human aspect of our lives, align with the heart and soul of business.
We are losing our sense of connection more and more these days. More and more people feel detached, disengaged, undervalued, overworked, stressed,...
Do you believe there is power in the words you choose?
Are you intentional about the words you choose when telling your story, or communicating with others? What about with yourself?
You probably have heard the adage: “you become what you think.” But, did you know that while that holds very true, you actually not only...
I’m still amazed after all the psychological research that has been conducted, compiled, and distributed that so many businesses still employ “scare” tactics as a means to elevate, enhance, and drive performance.
It’s almost comical how barking and bellowing orders is still a thing. Though, the irony is,...
This past weekend I was down in Galveston, Texas, for a mini vacation with a good friend for a much needed reprieve and some deep restoration. It also was Ernie’s (my new puppy) first time going to the beach.
We were excited to unplug, hang out by the water, and just recharge our batteries a lot. Both my friend and I really...
