Some Days, We Channel Serenity…Now!

“And indeed there will be time” – T.S. Eliot, The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock January came and I imagined the year ahead, as I sometimes do.  I know we’re supposed to stay in the present moment.  And, I try.  But, my imagination is just so darn tempting sometimes.  I looked to spring.  And...

Some Days, We Need to Restart

Some days, we are running so hard and so fast that it gets hard to connect to the source.  Things start to feel glitchy and slow.  Disconnected.  Disorienting, even.  Perhaps we’re so in it.  Or carrying so much we don’t know how to unload.  Holding things tightly (again!).  Too much happening.  Pulled in multiple directions. ...

Some Days, We Hold Both

Lately, I’ve been reflecting on duality.  Yin and yang.  Happy and sad.  Brave and afraid.  Right brain and left brain.  Today and Some Day.  The question I keep coming back to – How do we hold both? Some Day & Today Life comes with tradeoffs.  My today is both limiting and enabling.  Empowering.  Inspiring.  So,... Continue Reading →

Some Days, We Pay It Forward

Sitting in the room, surrounded by the brightest women from the biggest law firms and some of the most accomplished and acclaimed General Counsel, I’m struck by the energy, the power and the wisdom.  It’s palpable. Ms. JD’s LaddHer Up retreat brings together women law firm associates in their first six years of practice –... Continue Reading →

Some Days, We Come Full Circle

London.  The city where I fell in love with retail (and my partner…).  The city where I became fascinated with corporate law and walking cities, paving the way for the life and career that lay ahead of me.  The city where, almost twenty years later, I just celebrated the opening of my company’s first international...

Some Days, We Judge Not

As lawyers, judgment is something that is inextricably woven into the fabric of our work and our professionally trained minds.  Spend a little time on social media, and you’ll see judgement is also increasingly a foundation of our broader society’s interpersonal discourse.  Yet, as humans, this disposition doesn’t always serve us. The other day, a... Continue Reading →
