This week I wanted to share the audiobook version of the first chapter from my new book, Didn't See That Coming: Putting Life Back Together When Your World Falls Apart.

I hope that some of the ideas help spark healing as we all go through these trying times. Enjoy this gift of the first chapter and remember: I'm rooting for you! To ...

I'm so honored to host Professor Martha S Jones, author and researcher at Johns Hopkins, to talk about the history of the 19th Amendment, and how the stories we tell ourselves about our families and our histories shape the way we move through the world. It's an important conversation to have - especially in this moment when we're remembering the 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment to the US Constitution.

This week I thought it would be great if I could bring you not one lesson, but five! Think of it like a choose-your-own-adventure, only instead of a whodunit, it's a podcast that meets you where you're at. Are you four months into quarantine and feeling like your home is more of a prison than a respite? I've got a lesson for you on organization at home. Is social media burnout leading you to second-guess your goals? I've got a lesson on that as well. The reason I was able to bring so many ideas ...

This week on the RISE Podcast we're tackling a topic I get requested to do a lot: vision casting! Not only is vision casting a practice that's made a huge impact on my life, but it can also help you feel a sense of order and control during times of uncertainty (and who doesn't want that right now?) Here's the deal: there will always be uncertainty in our lives, there will always be obstacles and there will always be factors that we can't control. Vision casting is a way to set a clear path towar...
