For my husband’s birthday, we went and saw the new movie, Air, starring Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. Affleck plays Phil Knight, founder and CEO of Nike, and Damon is Sonny Vaccaro, hired to spot and recruit up and coming athletic talent. I’m actually not a Nike fan since they have gone completely wonky socially […]

YOUR HEALTH During a visit with dear friend, Jane Gordon, she shared with me a way she calms her spirit when sleep will not come. She will visualize the worry or concern as a tennis ball, and she will take her hand and swat that ball back to God. She’s had to warn […]

YOUR HEALTH As you may or may not know, I teach yoga a couple times a week. I tell students we will stretch, strengthen, and stabilize every class. Most importantly, we will practice proper breathing. Once the doors close, we concentrate on inhaling deeply and exhaling out completely. It takes work because most people […]
We Get What We Give
Wherever I go these days, businesses are complaining about how they can’t get people to work. We are all paying the price of businesses being short-handed: long lines and waits, confusion and chaos, bad customer service from lack of training, and actual closures or loss of services completely.

If you didn’t show up for work, you considered yourself fired. But apparently, we care more about being politically correct […]

YOUR HEALTH Many of you have followed my health journey (and/or read my book, Defy Your Diagnosis, where you learned more about me than you probably cared to!), and since 2018, my life has been riddled with unexplained and unanswered health questions. I found myself in a massive funk this year. Two bouts of […]
Do You Have a Ant Hill or a Team?
I believe former President Bill Clinton is quoted as saying, “If everyone on your team looks and acts just like you, you don’t have a team – you have an ant hill,” or something to that effect. He’s right! Unfortunately, many leaders are more comfortable with a carbon copy of themselves than their opposite. People […]

Are You Overcompensating?
Have you seen the movie, Nobody? It is a 2021 film staring Bob Odenkirk, whom you might recognize from Breaking Bad or You Better Call Saul. He is a former “cleaner” aka hitman who gives it all up to become a family man. He has special skills, but he has hidden them away in […]
