Whether you are conducting a hiring interview or engaged in a casual conversation, your first question to another person is key.
It sets the tone for the rest of the conversation and tells your audience a little bit about you. What you ask and how you ask it is essential to building your personal brand. Are you witty and charming or serious and to the point?

As our American friends and family celebrate Thanksgiving, it is a good day to think about all the things that we should be grateful for. Gratitude is a powerful inspiration, in my experience. I am grateful for all my travel experiences, like this stunning sunset in Penang, Malaysia.
What are you grateful for today?

Good communication skills are a full body experience and I am not just talking about our body language. We must enable those parts of our mind, body and soul that trigger creativity and confidence. The three things that bolster my C&C are:
- Working with colors. I love coloring!
- A really great, bouncy blowdry.
- A playlist to put me in the right mood.
As part of our C&C journey, you and I will identify your positive triggers and make the most of them!

Do you have a morning ritual? When and how we start our day sets the tone for not just the rest of the day but our lives.
