It begins with a nagging feeling as you scroll through Instagram feed: everyone else is so focused and together, yet you’re floundering from day to day to figure out what you want this weekend, let alone next year (or for your life).

Decision Fatigue is Real: Here’s 9 Ways to Deal
I had two clients break down into tears this last month over how overwhelmed they’re feeling. Mile long to do lists that seem never ending. Too many responsibilities with no ability to delegate or even defer much. Feeling on the edge of not just burnout, but a breakdown. In trying to figure out tools that […]
Standards Support You in Creating a Life You Love
You decided that this would be the year you made some of those big dreams of yours turn into reality.

Worry: What I’m Giving Up for Lent
Fourteen years ago, not only did I quit making New Year’s resolutions, I also stopped giving up stuff for Lent.

Mess to Delight: A Home Office Love Story
As I write this note, I am trying to look forward at my screen, though my peripheral vision is screaming at me to look instead at The Big Mess that is my desk. Piled to the left of me are stacks of books and planners, a slew of baby index cards, a pair of scissors, […]

Success Can Be Yours with Planning & Routines
I got a chuckle over an email from Coach on January 17th with the title “Happy Ditch Your Resolution Day”, a tongue in cheek acknowledgement that by mid-January, most folks are ready to abandon those New Year’s Resolutions.
