When my divorce went through, I had just a month before I was leaving for France to spend the holidays with my family. I didn't have much time to think about where I was, but I do remember standing in the middle of your new living room thinking, "Now What…?"

At the same time, I was excited about my...

After going through a separation or divorce, our self-confidence can take a hit. I put on a good facade. After all, I had left, so I didn't feel I had the "right" to feel unsure. But I remember feeling insecure and unlovable, and I threw myself into my work. I worked crazy hours because that was whe...

When I was a teen trying to figure out what I wanted to do from a career standpoint, I had no clue which way to go. I did have some ideas that appealed to me, such as being a stewardess and traveling the world or becoming an interpreter for the UN, but I didn't feel called to any of them with this d...

Toxic people. There's no doubt they are everywhere. You might have one in your family, at work, or even as a friend.

I woke up again in a cold sweat with my heart beating out of my chest. It was happening increasingly often. But the worst part was not being able to go back to sleep. That was my life for many years! And then, my stepdaughter came to live with us. She was plagued by several issues which meant that h...

We all know what it feels like to be stuck in a rut. You're going through the motions day after day, but you can't help feeling like there's more to life than this. That's where I was 2020, the year before leaving my 9-5. Some of it was COVID related, some of it was family stress related. I felt lik...

January 27^th marks one year since I left my 9-5 to coach full-time. It hasn’t been an easy year. There was a lot to learn, many things to put in place, disappointments to be had and questions around whether or not I was doing the right thing. Today, I know that I am exactly where I am supposed to be...

Have you ever been in a relationship where there is little to no trust? It doesn't feel good, does it? It feels like you have to be on the defensive all the time. It colors the lens through which you see the other person. 

We all know that trust is essential in all our relationships, both personal ...

We all have the desire to excel in achieving the outcomes we strive for. When you lead a team, you have additional responsibilities, not only in your success, but you are a critical piece of your team members’ success. As a member of a team, I always said that my job was to make my boss look good. W...

I was having a discussion with a friend this week and we were talking about how she is always willing to lend a hand and help other people. I asked her; “do you feel you’re a people pleaser”? She didn’t feel like she was and when I thought about our discussion, I realized there is a distinction to b...

I have had to learn a lot about myself in the last few months. I have spent most of my time exploring my values and what it means to be wearing this new entrepreneurial hat.
