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. I’m constantly reading how employees get […]

YOUR HEALTH Here we are in 2022, and I still hear women say, “I don’t do weights.” I understand lifting heavy weights may not be someone’s cup of tea, but we all must be working on our strength or we will find ourselves without any. Besides building up muscle and burning fat, resistance […]
Performance Should Matter
I know I am not the only person shaking their head wondering, “What the heck happened?” When I was in corporate American, you either did your job right, or you didn’t have a job. If you didn’t show up for work, you considered yourself fired. But apparently, we care more about being politically correct […]

I always say listen to your body’s […]

YOUR HEALTH In my latest book, Defy Your Diagnosis, I outline some key principles for creating the kind of health you desire. The first step is to define what you want it to look like. This is simple yet difficult as we can get caught up in settling for what others tell us our health […]
Stop Wasting Recruiting Efforts
Every recruiter has encountered the extremely frustrating situation when all their recruiting efforts are flushed down the tubes when the hiring manager changes his or her mind, goes in a different direction or simply doesn’t like the candidates presented. We are talking about people here, and any time people are involved, it gets messy. However, […]

YOUR HEALTH I have been an advocate of selfcare long before it was popular. I was forced into it by having much of my health taken away from me at a young age. Like many things, I believe the pendulum as swung too far over now, and people are becoming selfish in the name […]
Hiring the Right People Saves You Money
The employment market is absolutely insane right now. With all the government assistance, many people have zero incentive to work. Those who have been and are working are swaping jobs over small increases. All of this is making it tempting to just put “butts in the seat,” but I am here to tell you how […]
