I am big on prioritization and time management. I use a combination of the two to ensure I have an optimally optimized week. Every minute to its highest and best use. Usually, this results in fast-paced days and much thought and analysis as to what should comprise them. While some days can feel like it’s... Continue Reading →
Some Days, I Am Brave (Not Fearless)
I remember, several years back, arriving at a spa nestled in a serene resort. I felt a million miles away from my real life, despite only being one and a half hours down the freeway. Work had been intense. I was constantly out of my comfort zone. Stretching my limits every day. Some days to a... Continue Reading →
Some Days, I Reimagine Normal
As we collectively reimagine normal, not just in the workplace but in our holistic lives, I took my team through a visualization exercise and have shared it a few times by request since. Sharing the prompt and questions here in case they are helpful to you or your team. It’s been fascinating and inspiring to... Continue Reading →
Some Days, I Find Sanctuary
We are doing some long overdue work on our house and, for a number of reasons, have decided to stay living here during the process. Despite many warnings against doing so. This means, many of the rooms that are most central to the functioning and enjoyment of our home are now construction zones. Messy, dirty,... Continue Reading →
Some Days, I Take a Leap
If you looked at my life as a whole, you would have to conclude I am pretty risk-averse. I mean, I’m a lawyer, after all. For the better part of two decades, I’ve literally been in charge of mitigating risk. All sorts of risk. Head mistress of risk, if you will. However, you would also... Continue Reading →
Some Days, I Want To Be My Cat
I can’t remember when my family’s obsession with watermarks began. All I know is that watermarks must be avoided at all costs. And so, in my parents’ house and now my own, we squeegee. We squeegee everything squeegeeable. We all hate it and we bargain and negotiate at shower time to see who is going... Continue Reading →
Some Days, I Wish I Could Rewind
I am generally of the belief that, in my life, I would not go back and change a thing. This is not because my life has been perfect or easy. This is because all of it, the good the bad and the ugly, got me to where I am today and taught me so much... Continue Reading →
Some Days, I Feel Like an Orange
I grew up in the generation of snowflakes. Each of us told we were unique. Special. Except, I don’t recall that being the case for me. In fact, I recall more of a lean towards conformity. A constant, low grade anxiety pulsing through the air, amplifying each time I neared the invisible lines I was... Continue Reading →
Some Days, I’m Rose
Rose is a feeling. A whole mood. That energy when you are connected to your inner wisdom. Your older, more evolved self. Very often, Rose exists far away from the space I inhabit. She and her actualized self are off doing more evolved things than wasting time fretting with me. Rose isn’t worried about the... Continue Reading →
Some Days
Some Days are different than Somedays. Somedays are dreamy but untethered. Unaccountable. I believe in dreamy but proactive. Intentional. You cannot simply amorphously wish and expect your dream to come true. You must embrace agency. You must create. Some Days are specific. They may not yet possess every precise detail but, what is there, is... Continue Reading →
