Self-Awareness vs Maturity
My introversion has been fully challenged the past week or so. I can hardly believe we are already a week into June and I’ve had no time for introspection or a moment to pause and replenish. Well, to be fair, I’ve escaped our house full of guests periodically with morning pool dips or afternoon naps.…

Happy 45th!
With the average lifespan of a woman being about 81.1 years according to 2020 stats, I’m more than halfway through my walk on earth. However, I consider myself good to at least 90 or so; therefore, I shall call this year mid-life. There’s no crisis in thought like there was around my 40th when M…

Whole and Capable
One of the tenants of the life coaching principles that I learned was that we have to hold people as whole and capable. Based on the belief that all individuals are whole, capable individuals, coaching assumes the client is expert, able to determine what is best for their lives and the coach works along with…

Higher Vibrations
Although there were many interesting points that I gleaned from listening to Stay Sexy and Don’t Get Murdered: The Definitive How-To Guide, one of the most salient ones that has stayed with me is about low and high vibrations. Karen Kilgariff tells an anecdote about when she was catching up with her friend whom she…

Reheating My Tea
Although I’m not a sharer of quotes nor do I like to speak in quotes as I’ve written before, I do have some favorite ones to give me perspective on life. One of my favorites is by Marcus Aurelius in his Meditations. Is your cucumber bitter? Throw it away. My modern interpretation of this is…

Developing Routines
So, it’s been a few days since my last post. It was intentional to be honest. When someone posts all the time or when something becomes too available, the tendency is for complacency and over saturation to occur. Therefore, as I consider how to build readership, but also make sure I have enough content, I…
