In this episode, I debunk the idea of having to be grateful in order to get what you want in life. So many, including one of my favs, Oprah, have made this a very confusing thing to understand. Having a gratitude journal has nothing to do with getting the things you want in life. I give you some reasons why. Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!

In this episode, I talk about how we need to normalize that it's pretty human to not always be ON. Whether at work or in life, there will be days when you just can't create and produce. How do we normalize that? Especially when something happens that is completely out of your control and you're just not feeling it? And how, as businesses do we prepare for the possibility that someone on the team might be having a bad day and just can't create? Do you have a Plan B? Do you have a Consequences Lis...

In this episode, I expand on a story I wrote on my blog that happened this past weekend. I also talk about how hard we are on ourselves and sometimes, when we don't take a breath, we dig the hole deeper and may accidentally lash out at others. In business and in our personal lives we have to learn to take a breath. We also need to understand we're all just doing the best we can. Find me on all my social media by clicking here.

Whether it be in business or in your personal life, using the word "busy" is self-indulgent and can just make you look bad. Stop using the word and see it change the way you manage your time, how you deal with your clients, employees, and friends. It can change how you come across to others and make you appear as a person who is respectful of other people and their time. Such a simple trick, but a good one.

There's a great article in the Wall Street Journal that talks about this newish dilemma. The conversation is happening everywhere, but today, I was inspired by the comment section over on LinkedIn. The truth is, Recruiting and Employers themselves have been going about hiring people in so many wrong ways for so long, I'm not surprised this is the new go to for some very frustrated people seeking a job opportunity. I recently had a similar situation happen and I understand completely why some peo...

People are confused about what the definition of Content is. This episode explores the idea that everything you create and share, even comments on blog post, or a TikTok video is Content.

Since day one I have disagreed with Oprah (and others) about practicing gratitude. Being grateful has nothing to do with getting the things you want in life. But that is what people think: if they write in a gratitude journal then they will get that new car or new boyfriend they've been hoping for. I don't know where it got twisted, but that's not why you should practice being grateful. That's not it at all. Thank you for stopping by.

Practicing Self-care has become a very well-known subject.
