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​

I did my prep work. I knew the burnout...
Hey Reader! 👋 I know you're gonna relate to this one. It's Friday afternoon, and I'm checking my inbox one final time before I tap out for the weekend. There's a new email from the Ohio Safety Congress: Your OSC26® Session Evaluations Are Now Available. This is the speaker equivalent of receiving your annual performance review. I'm about to hear how the 25 attendees in my 3-hour workshop on harnessing conflict rated my work. The first thing I'm presented with is the numbers. It's the standard...
Hey Reader! 👋 I made it through my pickleball-free week. What need did you honor? This week, I delivered the fourth session in my new Human-Centered Leadership curriculum. Writing that session was a STRUGGLE. Not because I didn't understand the concepts. Reader, what got in the way was this story: you have an extra week between sessions, so you should work ahead and take the pressure off. Great advice. So why wasn't it working? The first few days go by and I'm not making much progress. My...
