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

Carrying that “all-knowing” persona into adult life isn’t a badge of honor—it’s a fast track to burnout and emotional exhaustion. During my time at Gap, Inc. I was promoted into my first people-management role. My story is the same as...
Reader, have you ever felt like life decided to use you as a punching bag? I got passed over for an executive promotion. My guest this week, Russ Hedge, has battled recurrent, aggressive melanoma for the past two years. Everyone has a story where the rug keeps getting yanked right out from under your feet. In the latest episode of The Story I'm Telling Myself, I'm joined by inspiration specialist Russ Hedge—a man who spent years caregiving for his parents through Alzheimer’s and cancer, only...
Promoting a star performer should feel like a win, but too often, it quietly unravels a team. Marcus is an absolute powerhouse. He solves complex system outages before anyone else can pinpoint the glitch. So promoting him to Team Lead seems like the natural reward. Two weeks later, the project Marcus' group is leading hits a major bump. Marcus defaults back to his technical know-how. He yanks back the work and doubles down on checking every minor detail, sometimes working 14-hour days....
