We have been told as individuals that we aren’t hip if we aren’t on social media. As businesses, we’ve been told we will shrivel up and die if we don’t use social media. Meanwhile, relationships are being fragmented and broken. We’re becoming disconnected. I feel like it is the scene from the Wizard of Oz […]
One size never fits all
As a human behavior consultant, I am all about customizing to fit individuals, whether that is communication, leadership, health, or stress management. One size does not fill all! People should be proud of their uniqueness, and we should all celebrate that we are all made different. However, some people seem to be pushing for sameness. […]
Want the world to be a better place? Show me!
Most of us remember the line in the Jerry McGuire movie where Cuba Gooding Jr’s character yells “Show me the money!” to his professional sports agent, played by Tom Cruise. In other words, he didn’t want empty promises, and words weren’t good enough—he wanted to SEE it. It’s time we showed each other that we […]
Besides the right equipment, you’ll need this to succeed
When my husband and I moved from Houston, Texas just over two years ago, we traded in mosquitoes for scorpions and hurricanes for monsoons! I am grateful we didn’t have to endure Hurricane Harvey, and I send hugs and well wishes to all who have suffered great loss. Shortly after settling into Phoenix, I was […]
Find Your Inner Warrior
I was geared up and ready to go for my morning run when my husband gave me a kiss to say goodbye as he headed out to work. With a twinkle in his eye, he said, “You look like a warrior ready to head into battle.” I chuckled as I looked at myself. I had […]
I’m Proud of You!
My husband and I just celebrated 19 years of marriage. We were enjoying an evening dip in the pool when he said, “I’m proud of us.” I knew exactly what he was referring to and agreed. You see, we’ve faced a lot of challenges and stresses in our marriage from job losses, illness, deaths of […]
Are you covered?
Once a year, I go through the entire house and update my inventory records to include any new books, DVDs, CDs, appliances, etc. that we may have purchased. I also take pictures to document the condition of our house, lot, and property inside and outside. It is a tedious task, one that I really don’t […]
Let’s put the social back into social media, shall we?
I have a love/hate relationship with social media. On Facebook, I enjoy looking at photos of friends and family, learning what they have been up to, and seeing where they have traveled. I do not, however, like the political rants and pushing of products. Some people post hateful, judgmental, and nasty statements designed to divide […]
You are Groot…and What That Actually Means!
Like millions of people, we went to see the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 movie. I thought the music was a little forced this time, but the movie did not disappoint. Our friend, Groot, is just a tiny twig. In the first one, he gave the ultimate sacrifice (his life) to save his friends. […]
Opioid Addiction and My Two Cents
Opioid addiction is killing nearly 100 people every day. A new HBO documentary shares this and other startling statistics, like the fact that it is primarily adults misusing the drug, not kids. Opioids are being over prescribed in this country, making it very easy for people to get hooked on them. I’ve said it before […]
