Business and Life Coaching,
The hair on our head is something we all get attached to. It’s a symbol of vitality, youth and beauty. When we start to lose it as we age our confidence can go with it. But there’s something else that I want to say about our hair that’s not as obvious. Ever notice a woman …
“I cooked dinner last night, and you can’t even take out the trash?” Ever heard that one? Or how about “I’m always the one who has to step up.” Or “I do all the work around here!” Do any of those sound familiar? There are a million more variations. It’s called score keeping. Not like …
If you were to google this topic, a lot of relationship scenarios would come up. I’d prefer to generalize so that this can be your guideline for any situation. Plus, men miss red flags too but most of google discusses women and relationships. Let me give you a perfect example. Years ago, my husband and …
It’s tempting to think that we know how we’ll feel when a certain thing happens. We imagine the moment. We rehearse it in our heads. We decide in advance how we’ll respond. But honestly, the old saying, “You don’t know til you get there” really is true. We may think we can predict, we may …

Right now, we have a crisis going on in our family with our brother. It’s very interesting to me to sit back and watch the personalities at play during this time. One of my sisters, who is not known for participating in the family much, has really stepped up big time. She’s offering classic support. …

In previous blog posts I know I mentioned this but apparently, I don’t have a blog post dedicated to this subject alone. It is an important subject so here we go! How many times a day do you “should” all over yourself? “Should” Seems Harmless It’s common to use the word “should” so it seems …
It’s common to get overwhelmed, frustrated or insecure when trying a new thing or learning a new skill because we’re afraid that we’ll never get it. It’s kind of like a baby learning to walk.
