Hold me on the palm of your hand. Step into the promise of the day Sing with circumspect abandon Live on the brink of discovery Delight in the surprise of the moment Dance with me in the air of the night Rest in the embrace of your lover Melt into the fragrant air. Be wonderful [...]

This week I was reminded of the power of women–collectively and as individuals. I had the opportunity to attend the Texas Women’s Conference, where 5000 Texan women gathered to hear many speakers.

Have you ever listened to the voices in your head? The ones that tell you that you must be crazy for feeling stuck in the high paying job, dumb for thinking that you could do something different…those same ones that said you could be better, more perfect, thinner, more beautiful, worthy etc! If we spent [...]

A former neighbor this morning wrote to reassure me that I can handle the upcoming transition to Houston–and she said that there are always bumps in a move, but they won’t be felt so much if we take them in low gear! I love that thought. It strikes me that there are things we know [...]

Whether in your business or in your daily life (think in relation to others!), what is the difference between being in control and choosing?

The [...]

So, if it is true that the only people who like change are cashiers, how do we deal with change whether we have chosen it or it has been thrust upon us? I think it might be wise to create a personal strategy to deal with change. Most of the time, I look at life [...]

Change is hard. It hits us like a ton of bricks when we least expect it, even when the change comes about as a result of our choices.
