Sustainability … for Self

The next twelve months will be a time of incredible growth and expansion for me--personally and professionally. And sensing this, over the weekend, I woke up Sunday morning feeling stress and anxiety course through my body as I anticipated…

Is Facebook Changing Who You Are?

Last Saturday, after an early morning family walk and outing, I came home, showered, put away the groceries and posted the following on my personal Facebook page: "Early morning family hike around east Town Lake Trail (beautiful rowing on…

I Am a Social Activist

This past Sunday my son and I stumbled upon Lady Gaga's new Born This Way initiative, launched recently at Harvard, which focuses on  heightening understanding around bullying and promoting a more compassionate society. It spurred a great…

Slow Down You Move Too Fast!

This weekend I found myself frequently humming, "Slow down, you move too fast ..." Lately, it feels like life is moving too fast. A month feels like a week--a week, like a day. Saturday night we really felt the effects of this. My…

Curiosity

Last month my husband and I had a session with a parenting coach. My almost ten-year old has hit adolescence and it's taken us by surprise (we thought we had a few more years before he started asking for the car keys!). She shared that…

Yesterday morning I found myself standing at my open front door staring out at a beautiful oak tree. Bathed in sunlight, I held a cup of lemon ginger tea in one hand and my to-do list in the other. I was waiting for a friend that I was helping…

Do It Different

Living from the Inside-Out

October overwhelm. It’s an old familiar friend. With my natural proclivity to “always think big” (I am a dyed in the wool entrepreneur!), underestimate how much time is needed for tasks and my tendency to take on too much at one time--I…

Ahhh….A Change Is Needed!

My husband and I had a challenging time around communication this past week. Of course, I can quickly blame it on his heady, introverted nature (he’s an INTP if you know Myers Briggs speak), but the truth is it takes two to tango. At the…

Practice

This morning my nine year-old was in total disequilibrium. I don’t know if it was the 9/11 documentary we let him watch, the full moon or another growth spurt, but it didn’t feel good and I didn’t want any of us to leave for the day on…

Breathe

I heard a movement teacher say the other day that every time we take a deep breath, our physiology and emotional makeup is completely altered. So in other words, remembering to breathe, can be life changing! I returned back to the office this…
