70 Is The New 50; 80 Is The New 60

My mother used to call me her “Danielle Steele Daughter.” And just like the fantasy romance novels, I was the 40-year-old corporate executive (with porcelain skin and sea green eyes…) dating the dashing entrepreneur, 20 years my senior… with silver hair, sapphire blue eyes, a luxury yacht and several homes. What the story book novel […]

End of One Dream, Beginning of Another

Four years ago I made, what seemed to many, a dramatic move. After 25 years of living in Kansas City, I sold most of my belongings and moved to La Jolla CA , aka SoCal, – because I could. My motivation was, initially, to be on the ocean and away from a land-locked environment. For […]

Inherited Conversations

Back in April I wrote a blog about how hard it was for me to write. After 10+ years of writing a blog every 2 weeks, I had nothing… My previous go-to topics of about leadership, teamwork and effective communication seemed horrifyingly trite. So here I am, 3 months later spinning in a sea of […]

Preparing for the Camino – What I Learned From My Meetup Hiking Group

As you read this blog, I am on my way for a big adventure: walking portions of the Camino de Santiago in Spain. For 10 years I’ve been saying that I was going to walk the Camino. Then earlier this year I came to the realization that I would probably never hike 500 miles and […]

What Are You Committed To?

I recently participated in a conference on Global Transformation with 900 people from around the world.  We were asked “What is our commitment to the world?”  And we were asked to be in an inquiry about our commitments.
