This week is all about practicing the art of doing (almost) nothing, and I’m putting myself and all of you on a Busy Life Diet. I’m writing my blog & newsletter at 9:00am on the balcony of our rented beach house at the Jersey Shore with a pushed-back deadline, no to-do list staring back at … (Read More)
Greetings, Brave Friends! Wait a minute. Are some of you not feeling brave today? That’s funny, because I just called you brave and that’s exactly how it works.

We first met when we were both selected be part … (Read More)
presentation after-glow… I live for this! Motivational CDs are about the only things that get played in my car, apart from some Krishna Das and a few select meditation CDs.
