My Superheroes
Iβm incredibly fortunate to have a group of girlfriends we call the Superheroes.
And believe me, the name fits.
These are women who have walked through life together. We have celebrated the wonderful moments and held each other up through some incredibly difficult ones. We've laugh...
During the pandemic, my entire family was under one roof (a COVID silver lining). Both our daughters lived on different coasts and while home convinced their dad we needed to adopt a dog. The challenge was our 16 year- old cat β how would he handle it?
The girls won β as they usually do β and we ad...
We show up for a lot of people. Our families, friends, jobs, clients and communities.
We keep appointments, meet deadlines, answer texts, attend meetings, volunteer, help our children, care for aging parents, and somehow manage to squeeze one more thing into an already full day.
But there's one pe...
Have you ever noticed how one simple invitation can change everything?
"Want to go?"
Those three little words have led to some of my favorite memories.
A weekend getaway.
A new restaurant.
A walk around the neighborhood.
A fitness class.
A volunteer opportunity.
A road trip.
A girls' night.

Adventure doesn't always begin with a plane ticket.
Sometimes it begins with opening your closet.
As an image consultant for over 20 years, I've watched countless women reach for the same colors, the same styles, and the same "safe" outfits year after year. Not because they love them - but because...
When was the last time you did something just because it sounded fun?
Not because it was productive.
Not because it checked something off your to-do list.
Not because someone expected you to.
Just... because it made you smile.
As children, we were experts at having fun. We climbed trees, rode bikes...
One of the greatest myths about getting older is that adventure has an expiration date.
Somewhere along the way, many women begin to believe they've missed their chance. They think adventure belongs to their twenties, career changes should have happened in their forties, and by fifty, life should s...
Throughout this month, we've talked about friendships that shape our future, choosing a summer state of mind, and having the courage to embrace our next chapter. My hope is that these blogs have reminded you that joy isn't something we find - it's something we choose.
Joy isn't reserved for vacatio...
Every day we wake up with an opportunity to choose our next chapter.
That doesn't mean pretending the hard chapters never happened. In fact, some of our most difficult seasons become the very experiences that prepare us to encourage someone else. Our setbacks often become our greatest teachers.

When most people think of summer, they picture sunshine, vacations, cookouts, lake days, fresh fruit, flip-flops, and longer evenings. Summer has a way of making us feel lighter, freer, and more alive.
But what if that feeling didn't have to end when the calendar changed?
What if summer wasn't jus...
Have you ever noticed that after spending time with certain people, you feel energized, encouraged, and ready to take on the world? Then there are other relationships that leave you feeling drained, doubtful, or exhausted.
That's not your imagination. It's influence.
One of the greatest lessons I'...
Happy almost 4th of July! π As we celebrate this special day of freedom and independence, letβs take a moment to reflect on the things that truly define us: what we eat and drink, wear, and think. This weekβs blog is dedicated to embracing a holistic approach to living life to the fullest.
