Leverage Human Connection

Balance technology with people

Everywhere we turn, we are asked to download yet another app to make our lives supposedly easier. From doctor’s offices to marts to retail shops, everyone wants a piece of your personal information! Yes, you are trading convenience for privacy. This is the world we live in, and it isn’t the point of my blog…at […]

YOUR HEALTH The day I ended up at Urgent Care, I was bobbing at the bottom. I hadn’t held down food for five straight days, and prior to that, not much else. I had a high fever, and my blood pressure was so low, their machine couldn’t register it. My lips were gray due to […]

Experience vs Credentials

Degrees aren't the answer

Go on the Internet, and you can get a certificate in just about anything. I saw one recently: “In just a few hours, you will become a certified coach.” Really? Do people buy into these? Worse yet, do people put weight in them? Thankfully, we are seeing a shift in the business world. Companies have […]

You are not alone

  YOUR HEALTH                Health professionals give a lot of attention to hypertension or high blood pressure, but did you know hypotension or abnormally low blood pressure can be dangerous as well? I know because I have lived with it my entire life. I have blacked out numerous times when getting up too fast, and […]

You are not alone

    YOUR HEALTH We all know how yoga can help us stretch, strengthen, and stabilize, but did you know the practice of meditation can also dislodge deeply buried feelings? If you have ever stuffed your feelings, they embed within your body. Over time without knowing it, these unresolved emotions can turn dark, ugly, angry, […]

Hiring Tips

Tips for hiring

  We have the largest generation in the history of our country in the workplace right now combined with several other generations; yet, we have a worker shortage. Last week, I exposed age discrimination. If you can’t fill job openings at your company, you have age discrimination happening. This week I wanted to offer some […]

It is as if we are living out an episode of the Twilight Zone! Meanwhile, we are all suffering the consequences: Restrooms go uncleaned, pharmacies close because they […]

The Fitness DISCovery System

YOUR HEALTH Form matters when you lift weights. Proper form not only prevents injury, but it will ensure you get the results you seek. Ever see someone lifting super-fast? They aren’t working both phases of the muscle, and momentum is doing the majority of the work for them. When we rush and hurry our muscle […]

  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 […]
