Adults need to play almost as much as kids. Spending time in casual play will spark your creative ideas, help you chill out and you will find that you are so much more resilient to manage the tough stuff. Being immersed in play really gets the flow of energy moving in your body and your life I hosted a seminar for a group of professional women some time ago. We talked about leading with emotional intelligence and avoiding burn out. I had brought some props with me to use for easy stress reduction hints. My Sanity Saving Play Dough was by far the best part of the event. When I handed it out, they visibly relaxed and smiled. Each...
Over the past few days, you’ve started to hear from me a lot more frequently. I decided to do these daily emails because I wanted to get to know you better.

You Can't Do Big Things If You Are Distracted By Small Things Does this sound familiar? You’ve got a couple of hours to get some work done on your business. You sit down with a fresh cup of coffee, check your email quickly before you begin and then…. you glance at the clock and an hour has passed. You realize you just fell down the rabbit hole of distraction! How does this happen? Well for me it used to start with skimming emails in my inbox, opening one and starting to read.
