The Power of Gratitude: How Giving Thanks Can Change Your Life

It’s the week of Thanksgiving! My favorite holiday of the year. I love all the traditional Thanksgiving foods (yes please give me all of the stuffing, turkey and pie). The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade, the football games, and of course most of all the family time and the relaxed vibe that comes with this holiday. There are no expectations to …

A strategy to transform your life

The end of 2009 was a really rough time for me. It was just before the holidays when I had had a miscarriage at 14 weeks. Even just typing this now brings tears to my eyes. I can still feel the heartbreak and devastation. I truly did not know how to keep going. This was 2 years into what ended …

Awkward.

My husband Mark and I went to the summer solstice party at the Cleveland Museum of Art.

Do this to feel lighter in the new year…

A few Christmases ago, when we went to Mexico for the holiday, I had the great idea that Mark and I should consolidated our luggage. So I bought a big suitcase from one of those Today Show Steals and Deals—without paying attention to the dimensions. Because of this, Mark and I ended up traveling with a big ass suitcase, and …

How will you make this year count?

I love the excitement of the new year – it feels fresh and full of possibility. Like an unwritten book filled with pages that are ready and waiting for your story. But if you’ve ever written anything, you know the pressure that comes with a blank page – let alone a whole book filled with them! Which is why so …

Ready for a change?

Exhausted by sprinting through your daily race of hurdles, burnout from the stress of ALWAYS having something “to do” (but never feeling like you’re getting anything done) and just tired of looking around—not seeing where you are as where you actually want to be.
