You love your children, your partner, your dearest friends…
How might your life be different?
I’m not even suggesting that you love yourself the most, or that you put yourself first. I’m just suggesting that you love yourself “at least as much as”. (more…)
I’m not talking about your chronological age, although that may be what that question means to you. But really, how old are you? The number bears only part of the definition and can actually be quite deceiving. The real question might be how old do you feel? How old do you act?
How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you were?

I spend my days writing, teaching and speaking to countless people about Designing Your Life. This is my passion and my purpose. I love teaching people about having a vision for their lives and tools for bringing dreams into reality. I can help you design a beautiful plan of empowered next steps that will keep you moving forward toward your destiny.
But….what about when plans fall apart? I had a plan, a deeply nurtured vision of how I was going to fulfill my dream – my heart’s calling. And it was a good plan. I could see it clear as a bell and I was working it. Then, out of the blue, out of nowhere, came a sharp left turn. An unforeseen turn, an unasked-for redirection, and something I definitely hadn’t planned for. This week I’ve had to deal with best laid plans…..gone awry. (more…)
