My husband and I are wrapping up a wonderful vacation in our favorite place. As we grilled our last dinner here, we talked about how grateful we are that we can do this in our retirement. We started counting all we are grateful for and ran out of fingers and toes to count on. Our conversation inspired me to dig up and repost one of my favorite blog posts with some simple ways to make appreciation and gratitude a daily habit. It feels appropriate to share during this Thanksgiving week. What are you grateful for today?

As many of you know, I'm slowing down my coaching practice. I still have a few clients, because I love them, but I am putting all of my best resources together into one place. My leadership toolkit includes worksheets, assessments, tips, tools, videos that I have gathered and created over the past 15 years. I'm excited to roll it out in a few weeks. DM me if you want more info!
