There are lots of great trails to explore in our local area. Here are some scenes from today's hike. Just magical.

We took advantage of the ski week break to explore . The snow made it magical while the ice made it humorously treacherous.

Clients are always asking for book recommendations, and despite fiction being my first love, I try my best to also rotate in some non-fiction. These are the ones I'll be tackling next. I'm starting with Ms. Abrams. If you have a favorite book on leadership, culture, communication, and such, let me know, and I'll add it to my list.
Thanks to for making sure I always have a next book to read.

If any of you have "Get a NewJob" on your to-do list for 2025, i encourage you to keep this blog post close at hand. Let it provide you work a little encouragement and help you get to the other side of a pretty painful process. Link in bio.

Look who finally got their act together and put out a newsletter! It's a quick read and a great way to stay connected to all my goings on. Use the website link in my bio to avoid FOMO and get on the list! ❤️
Thanks to for pushing this along!

Took advantage of a rainy Sunday to crawl under my favorite blanket and finish this book. The timing was perfect and has me even more excited to launch my personal branding workshop in February. Thank you for you words on assertiveness and warmth, and adding versus taking away.

Please reach out if you want to learn more about the Own Your Brand, Own Your Future workshop.

New blog post is up! It's a quick read and will get you thinking about how you organize your time and help you put some intention behind it. Link in bio.

Commitment to work through the hard times means that hurts need to be addressed, uncomfortable conversations had, and vulnerabilities revealed. I don't like the hard times but, I have precious memories of hard times done well and now I understand that on the other side are good times made even better, love gone deeper, and trust more securely in place.

I'm sending you all my love and encouragement as we learn to commit to working through the hard times.

Today my grandmother turned 92. She's as fun and amazing as she appears in this picture. My life would be very different if not for this slightly diminutive ball of fun and love. Happy birthday, Grams! You are so much more than you'll ever give yourself credit for. Here's to another year of laughter and adventure.🎂🤗🥰🎂

If you've been meaning to register but just haven't got around to it, here's your call to action. Go to vote.gov and make it happen.

It happens. We disagree, we let each other down, we make choices that not everyone can get behind and as a result the relationship is strained. It's our response to these situations that determines what the friendship looks like coming out on the other side. How could you have shown up differently and how can you help with the repair.

Hi Loves, I just got back from the most amazingly inspiring and productive retreat. I will have two new workshops to share with you soon. In the meantime, I want to encourage all of you to make time for thinking and creating. Do less to do more!❤️
