Stop Spinning
Jan 24, 2022

It’s Monday, January 24th— and if you’ve read a couple of my blogs, you know I write about what’s top of mind right now.

And what’s at the top of the list right now is … SNOW. The cold, white stuff. And what I am listening to now is slushy snow and cars spinning their wheels trying to navigate the drifts piled up in gutters and city alleys.

Happy New Year, friends and colleagues!

My personal rule is anything before the 15th is game for a hearty "Happy New Years" greeting, so I consider myself coming in just under the wire for 2022. Eleven days in and already so much noise in the universe, at least from my perspective!

A Day for Everything... Shots, Part 2
Oct 15, 2020

Everyone has a story and this is ours. Perhaps there are some that believe this doesn’t belong on a business page; as a business owner, an HR executive, a coach, a woman, and a mother — I KNOW it belongs for so many reasons.

Lessons from Ron Burgundy (a.k.a Anchorman)
