"They"... Who are "they" anyway? Even though we don't seem to be able to answer that question, there are a lot of "they" who seem to be keeping us connected to situations, experiences, and drama that we really don't need... and you'd think the situation would improve when "they" leave our lives... Quite the contrary. …

Ever wiffle-waffle on a major life decision? I have... on quite a few things. And one area where I do the least wiffle-waffling is my business. Why? Because entrepreneurial success only happens when you apply RELENTLESS, persistent, consistent focus to a small number of things over a LONG period of time. And most aspiring entrepreneurs …
I knew it was coming... For years, the writing had been on the wall... You know exactly who I'm talking about: Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick... Yes, the Kardashians... and everyone could see the writing on the wall: Kourtney's the stability, the security, the breadwinner, and the power entrepreneur. Scott's the younger, inept, aimless, addiction-prone …
I used to insist upon doing it all: myself, right, and perfect the FIRST time. I used to expect, on the rare occasion that I asked for help, that people did it just like me, right, and perfect the FIRST time. I used to shake my head in absolute knowing when people let me down, …

The more time I spend on this journey to having more children, the clearer it becomes that conceiving a baby and birthing a business have opposing needs. I know there are women who've been where I am, building the business that I'm building, and have gotten pregnant, carried twins, and given birth, all while keeping …
I was reading an article about female breadwinners. It talked about the way in which the husbands of these breadwinners felt emasculated and, as a result, the breadwinning wives carried around with them unspoken guilt about their husband's loss of identity... and it left me wondering: Whose baggage are you carrying? I get the mommy …

This is a controversial post (HINT: If you're wanting a politically correct post that says all the right things and makes you feel all warm and fuzzy, this would not be the one- stop reading now). My husband recently got a new job that pays SIGNIFICANTLY MORE than he was making in his prior position... …

I was going to write a different post this morning. I was going to talk about how to not be distracted in life, how to stay the course and stay on purpose. But it's hard to do that when you're present life is becoming increasingly drama-filled or anxiety ridden. There's been all of this talk …
