Reader, thanks for pausing to celebrate with me! This week's #ShowUpPositive Spark, WISDOM, is inspired by my age. After walking upon this earth for five decades, I have definitely gained some wisdom. There is no denying experience is a mighty teacher. With each success and humility, there is an opportunity to garner more wisdom. Reader, I also notice that much of this wisdom goes unnoticed until it is shared with others. In telling our stories and collaborating with others, we access the deeper insights that turn events into wisdom. Since the beginning of 2024 I've hosted Talk Me Off the Ledge, an audio event on LinkedIn, each Monday (12:30-1:15 pm). What I initially expected were converstions about tactical and relational challenges in business. Instead, it has transformed into an exploration of assumptions, beliefs, and values. In listening to the stories participants share, I learn and challenge my own thinking. Each week I start my Monday feeling more
So, this week I'm personally inviting you Reader. Come celebrate my birthday week and join me in increasing and sharing you wisdom as we discuss​

She trusts that humans will be caring and fun playmates and quickly makes friends with new people. She smartly sheaths her front...
Reader, I've been stricken with vacay brain. My eyes pop open. Dawn is breaking. I grab my phone to see 6:00 a.m. on the dot. I pause to take stock following my 36-hour round trip to St. Louis by car. Do I need more sleep? Am I ready to start my day? I feel good, and walking with my dogs at the park sounds invigorating. My feet hit the floor and I start my day thinking about all the productive work I am going to accomplish. I walk the dogs, grab a light bite, make my morning posts on social...
Reader, this gets a little personal. Over the winter, I started playing pickleball. I love it! I'm having so much fun. Summer is now officially here with a daily heat index topping 100 this past week. In past years, I have avoided being outside in such dreadful heat. This year, I'm taking two or more showers a day to cool off and wash away the sweat. Yes, I'm a prolific sweater. One of those people who always looks like they just ran a marathon after any exertion in the sun. I could choose to...
