Knowing When It Is Time To Leave
Last week, I saw this meme: “Knowing When to Leave Is So Important. The Party. The Job. The Relationship.” These are often the questions we ask ourselves during a Mid-Life Crisis.

You Got This
I have been in a bit of a funk this week. It all started when I overdid it this weekend on the tennis court, and now my knee is really paying for it. The swelling in my knee makes it very hard to sit at my desk, and I cannot go out and play my favorite sports.…
Procrastination Is Not Laziness

Maui Fires
We are safe and grateful to be back home. But as you all know, thousands of people were not so lucky. Parts of the island have been devastated. Many people lost their lives, their homes, and their businesses, and still don’t have water, power, or cell service. It is going to be a long road…
