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 […]

During the Coronavirus lockdown, I was browsing through a box of old pictures. I came across this picture that I used to hide because I was embarrassed at my disheveled and frumpy appearance; stomach out, shirt unbuttoned, knee socks askew, staring down the camera. I’d defiantly claimed the top of the pedestal – Like I […]
Read MoreStuck and Stuff It’s been 2 months since I published my last blog – and it’s not that I haven’t tried to write something. There certainly has been a MULTITUDE of topics that I would normally be itching to write about. For heaven’s sake – our world has been turned upside down in the last […]
Read MoreIt’s a new year, a new decade. Why not try something new? For some reason, I’ve been obsessed about learning new things, especially things that I would normally avoid. How many of us have pre-conceived ideas about what we’re good at and what we’re not? Or things that come naturally or things we struggle with? […]

Wikipedia says that integrity is: the inner sense of “wholeness” deriving from qualities such as honesty and consistency of character.

Read MoreIt’s funny how we remember certain dates. My mother was relentless about remembering people’s birthdays, anniversaries and significant events and yet, despite her reminding me, these most of these dates and remembrances weren’t really important to me. And yet, I will always remember April 22, 1967 and I have remembered every April 22 for the […]
Read MoreSo what does one say when receiving not one, but two, major awards that reflect a lifetime of work? It’s all very humbling and when I look in the mirror, I say: “Who, me?” In October, I received the Distinguished Alumni Award at the University of Wisconsin Green Bay (UWGB) and in November, I was […]
