Reap the Rewards of Routine

As a coach, I work with both executives and entrepreneurs (writers, producers, and small business owners). For my executive clients, their schedules are dictated by their work hours and all that entails: Commuting, In-person or Zoom meetings, phone calls, emails, and then doing their actual jobs. For my entrepreneurs, their schedules are more unstructured. They don’t have a…

Do You Struggle With FOMO or FOPO?

You know when you are sitting at home, scrolling through your social media feeds, and suddenly, there it is—the ultimate party of the century, the concert of a lifetime, or the brunch where everyone seems to be having a blast?

Inspiration From The Emmys

Inspiration can come from anywhere.  As a person who greatly admires creativity, achievement, and perseverance, I am always on the hunt for inspiration.  I find inspiration in people’s stories. It’s why I love memoirs and autobiographies.  It’s, also, why I love being a coach.  But sometimes inspiration comes in unexpected places too.  A few weeks ago, I…

May You Be Happy

For any of you who know me or have worked with me, you know how important meditation is to my daily routine.  It never ceases to amaze me how many of my clients will be eager to make big and small changes in their lives, but a meditation practice seems to be the hardest one to…

Negativity Bias

Do you ever find yourself having a perfectly good day? The sun is shining, you have been super productive, and you are feeling energetic and generally positive.  But then you get a text or a call from someone that they are canceling your plans. You feel disappointed because you were looking forward to those plans…
