I have been a fan of DISC and certified behavioral consultant for almost thirty years. I think I was drawn to it because I wasn’t like most girls. I wasn’t moody, emotional and into typical girl activities. I was drawn to sports and being competitive. I was a natural-born leader, organizing and guiding others in […]

YOUR HEALTH I’ve been teaching fitness classes for about 25 years now, and I always remind folks that a healthy lifestyle isn’t just to look and feel good. It’s about internal health and preparing ourselves for the “what if’s” of life. Lurking around the corner are accidents, illnesses, diseases and injuries that will attempt to […]
Kranky as I Jingle All the Way
You’ll get the title of my blog if you have seen two Christmas movies that deserve coal in their stockings! Yes, I am talking about Christmas with the Kranks starring Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis and Jingle All the Way with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sinbad. Although different movies, their theme is the same: being […]

YOUR HEALTH I don’t know if your mom was like mine, but she was adamant about lying. She could accept some things, but lying was not one of them. We told the truth at any cost, and I have tried to live an honest life, seeking the truth in all things. I find […]

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 […]
Bad Apples Poison the Whole Barrel
The saying, “Bad apples poison the whole barrel,” is old but still rings true today. I have personally experienced a bad hire above me that resulted in most of the good employees quitting, and I have witnessed it countless times in companies I’ve consulted with through the years. Not only does this destroy morale, but […]

YOUR HEALTH Long before a techy gadget, I have been a proponent of Fit Bits: quick little exercise moments that can make a big difference. We have all the best intentions to get some exercise in but life happens. I’m not one to waste any time as I am high on the Utilitarian scale, and […]
Choose Your Team Wisely
I’m an avid hiker, and back in 2007, I decided to hike Mt. Whitney, the tallest mountain in the contiguous United States and the Sierra Nevada, with an elevation of 14,505 feet. In order to hike this particular peak, you need a permit. It’s one of the busiest hikes in America. I set the date […]

YOUR HEALTH You know me, I am always game for trying new things that are supposed to be healthy alternatives. One such supplement is Turmeric, and research is showing that it has a wide-range of health benefits. I’ve known about it for years as an anti-inflammatory, but Turmeric is so much more! Turmeric is […]
