We are now in that delicious time of darkness and more time indoors. This can also be a beautiful time of going deep within us to discover what we are longing for and wanting to create as the cycle turns soon to more light and a coming new year. The winter solstice on December 21 and the days leading up to it and until the New Year is the perfect time to discern what your inner wisdom is revealing about the coming year of 2025.

Interviews can conjure up a lot of dread and fearful feelings but there are ways to prepare that will put you in the driver’s seat. You want to go all in with your preparation without getting attached to having the job. You don’t know yet whether you like the organizational culture, the dynamics with the person who will be your boss/supervisor/partner, and what they might be able to offer you.  

Here are five steps for preparing yourself for your interview: 

Srep One: Thoroughly research the c…

Years ago, I got a Staples easy button, and it sits on my desk to this day. If you aren’t familiar with what that is – it is a red button with white type of “easy” on it and when you press it a voice says in a very self-satisfied way: “That was easy!”

I have it on my desk to remind me that looking for the easiest way to do things is a super helpful approach and it is fun to press it and hear the reinforcement.

When I take the easiest path toward my tasks and projects, I find that I am not as…

In our busy lives and in our leadership roles in our organizations or businesses, we can be very focused on “to dos,” what is next on the list, and asking ourselves: how much can I get done today, and how can I get some food organized so I can keep going? These are all important for reaching our goals (I have coached some high achievers who thought eating took too much time) for sure.

However, the real key to achieving at a deeper level, and what will feed your soul as a leader and businesspers…

The work of Dr. David Hawkins assists us to more deeply understand how daily awareness of where our feelings are is a springboard to success. I have used this awareness to discern what my predominant feeling or feelings are on a certain day and then set an intention to reach for a higher vibrational state if I am stuck in some negativity.

It turns out that as I get to a better feeling place my performance in my career is improved and my success becomes more of a flow.

Just yesterday I notice…

Sometimes things not going our way is a great gift in the end. In one of my positions in a wonderful nonprofit organization serving my community, I was in line for and planning on a promotion that would have given me more responsibility, money, and influence in a way that would have been deeply satisfying for me. I kept waiting and waiting for it to happen, and watched the original timeline come and go. It gradually dawned on me that my CEO did not intend to honor the pathway for me at the organ…

We live in a culture that is very goal oriented and even encourages workaholic behavior. U.S. workers get an average of ten paid leave days a year which includes all federal holidays (compared to 20 - 30 in Europe).This is the second lowest in the world and fifty percent of workers are not taking any vacation time. Even if we get some paid PTO we may be in an environment where we are expected to work long hours and be available after hours. The lack of vacation and downtime shows up as enormous …

When I was in the process of buying my home, there was a point at which things got very delayed because the current owners lived in another city and there were four of them and they had to agree on some things and coordinate digital signing of documents. I was starting to feel frustrated and some fear was creeping in because I knew this was a home I could thrive in.

I have learned to monitor when negative emotions start to take over and I immediately sat down and wrote out an intention that dec…
