Do you ever look back and wish you had a do-over?
You dissect your actions and wonder how things could have played out differently, if only you knew then what you know now. But, give yourself a break because hindsight is always 20/20.
I don’t like to spend time on regret. It’s a waste of mental and emotional energy and keeps you in the past. I want to live in the present.
That said, there is one thing that if I could go back and time and do differently—I would.
I can’t time travel, but I can do better than that. I can share my experience with you and help you change your life for the better!

Do you have a work BFF?
Your ride-or-die on impossible projects. That person who sends you hilarious memes during the most painful meetings. The one you share the best and worst parts of your personal life with.
They make everything about the workday better, don’t they?
But, what about the flip side? Is there someone on your team that you can’t stand?
They never do what they say they’re going to do. Everything they say feels like a personal attack. Just the sound of their voice chiming in on a conference call gets on your nerves.
We all have them.
Here’s the brutal truth. You’re always going t ..read more

You’re bold, ambitious, and extremely capable. But, sometimes, you need help.
Whether it’s a workload that’s pushed you beyond your limits or a problem that seems impossible to solve, there are times when the best option is to ask your boss for help.
Asking for help goes against our nature as Type-A corporate badasses! It feels uncomfortable. Awkward. Intimidating. Mortifying. But, there’s no need to feel ashamed or embarrassed about it!
It’s time for a reframe on this topic. Because there are times when asking your boss for help is a clear sign of your strength—not the weakness you fear. Stop ..read more

One of the most overused buzzwords directed toward women is “self-care.”
Each time this term comes up in popular news outlets or social media, it comes with to-do lists of assorted treats to purchase or New Age activities to try.
I have a very different view on this important topic.
Self-care is at the core of my everyday routine. It’s one of the things that fuel me to achieve big goals and has generally made me a happier person.
It’s worked for me, and it can work for you, too. Let’s talk about a new way to think about self-care.

The rise of remote working has completely changed the corporate landscape.
Companies are no longer limited by location to hire the talent they need, and employees have a level of flexibility that most people never dreamed would be possible even just a couple of years ago.
It’s easy to see the advantages. But, we’re now starting to feel the disadvantages, aren’t we?
It’s harder to get up to speed. It can feel lonely and isolating. Let’s be honest, work is more enjoyable when we do it with people we know and like!
We can complain about it, or we can do something about it. If you are feeling isol ..read more

Spring feels so good when it’s getting started.
You notice the sun is sticking around longer. The air feels crisp—yet you know warmer days are coming. The trees are starting to bud. It’s a time that helps us all feel a little more hopeful and energetic.
It’s a perfect time to think about letting go of what no longer serves us so that we can better focus on what’s next.
Many of us focus this clearing energy on our overcrowded closets and cabinets. But, what if I told you that there are some things in your work life that you should consider letting go of?
Let’s talk about four things you should ..read more
