WHAT IS “UP LEVELING” AND WHY DOES IT FEEL SO LONELY?

updated on

This photo popped up on my Facebook feed as a memory from last year. It looked beautiful and bucolic, yet the memory it evoked was not. It was 2020 and COVID was raging in New York City along with riots and protests. It felt like the world was ending. I lived in a suburban area just outside the city. The sun was out and it was a gorgeous day. It felt luxurious after months of living in fear and isolation to just take my lawn chair to the park and read a book in the sun. When I posted the …

DO YOU HAVE THE COURAGE IT TAKES TO SPEAK UP?

updated on

I’ve been contemplating how difficult it is to speak up and be heard as a woman and was pondering why. I did a little research on two women who found their voices and spoke up. I discovered that they both were able to do this despite some very intriguing circumstances. Let’s take a peek behind the curtain… Let’s begin with Eleanor Roosevelt. One of my favorite quotes from her is: “Speak your mind, even though your voice shakes.” When we think of Eleanor Roosevelt we think “Strong, Smart Woman;” after all she even has US stamps with her image on them. Yet everything …

ARE YOU THE ALPHA OR THE OMEGA IN YOUR CAREER?

updated on

Are you familiar with Alpha and Omega energies? If you are like me, perhaps you have ‘heard’ of it but may not know a whole lot about it. When I began to explore this topic – it blew my mind. In work life and in wildlife, there is a “status” and a pecking order whether we realize it or not. In the wild, whether it be wolves or lions or other packs of animals, there is an “Alpha” who is the leader of the pack. All the way at the end of the line there is an “Omega” who is …

BE AWARE OF YOUR THOUGHTS…THEY ARE A PREDICTION OF YOUR FUTURE

updated on

Did you know that when we have a thought; just a mere though in our minds, that we have already created it?  It already exists and it is our job to take action to bring it to fruition. Wallace Wattles in “The Science of Being Great” (which was written in 1910 – I find it fascinating that this was written over a 100 years ago and it is so simple) says, “If you desire a thing, picture it clearly and hold the picture steadily in the mind until it becomes a definite thought form…the thing you want will come to …

ARE YOU A POWERFUL FEMALE LEADER OR A MAN IN A SKIRT?

updated on

March is Women’s History Month. You probably want to stick a needle in my eye after reading the headline, but let me expand upon what I mean. I have spent nearly 20 years in the corporate landscape and what I have observed time and time again is that many women, when they step into a Leadership role, begin acting like a man. They make decisions like their male predecessors. They heartlessly restructure departments and entire companies; and they seem to be void of feelings. It is as if they checked their emotions at the door before entering the building. Shamefully, …

TURN YOUR CAREER PASSIONS INTO ACTIONABLE PLANS

updated on

7 Days of “ahhh…” A few weeks ago I went on a Spa vacation that I had been looking forward to for a long time. While I was indulging and enjoying absolute relaxation, I was able to notice all the little beautiful moments that usually pass me by because I am rushing through life, focused on work and attaining my goals. Then I had this amazing realization that some of the best actions can be put in place during these little moments of “ahhh.” I wanted to share my learnings so get out your journals and notebooks. I’m giving you …

HOW BEING BANNED FROM TINDER (FOR LIFE!) BECAME A LESSON IN LEADERSHIP

updated on

Who knew that Sharon Stone and I would have so much in common? Back in December, 2019 Sharon Stone’s profile on the dating app, Bumble, was shut down due to reports of it being a fake. Just a few weeks prior, I had been on Tinder for fewer than 24 hours and was banned for LIFE. What?? At least Sharon got her profile back up and running again – no such luck for me. Tinder was never my “thing” – the profiles are too short and people have the attention span of a flea. But when I heard that my …

DITCH YOUR NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTION AND DO THIS INSTEAD

updated on

It’s that time of year when people start to take stock of what they accomplished throughout the past year. Upon reflecting on the year, many realize that they didn’t achieve their goals and dreams for yet ANOTHER year. So, what happens? People will make the same or very similar New Year’s Resolutions year after year – which NEVER come to fruition. What is a New Year’s Resolution anyway? According to the Cambridge Dictionary it is a promise that you make to yourself to start doing something good or stop doing something bad on the first day of the year. And that usually lasts, how long? A week, a month, tops? …

TRANSITION FROM “PEOPLE PLEASER” TO “LEADER” IN 6 EASY STEPS

updated on

“If you want to make everyone happy don’t be a leader – Sell Ice Cream.” – Steve Jobs I love Steve Jobs and he wasn’t always liked – in fact the company he started fired him. He wasn’t portrayed as a very “nice” person in the movie about his life. So why do I like a person who wasn’t very nice? Well, he had courage and he was a Leader and he didn’t worry if people liked him or not. Lots of people love reading inspirational quotes and imagine themselves stepping into their leadership potential and being powerful. But making that …
