True story. Jane was walking down the hallway when she came across an old friend. The two hugged and suddenly Jane felt completely drained. She couldn’t figure it out. The next day, the same friend called and asked how she was feeling. The friend explained that she had been feeling really bad but after they …
I come from a family of world class worriers. As a first generation Polish Catholic American we can definitely make a mountain out of a molehill. On the flip side, if there’s a real crisis, everyone is super cool, go figure. The problem with worrying is that most of the time (as those of us …

In April, I talked Charlie into taking a beginner level improv class at OTR Improv in Cincinnati. Let’s just say he was less than enthusiastic but I was adamant even though it’s been awhile since I’ve taken a class. After the first class, I asked him, “so what do you think?” ”It’s okay but what’s …
We’ve all seen those JLo movies (or some version there of). Woman/man meets amazing man/woman. Their time together is magical, the sex is seamless, it all seems so perfect and then… (cue sinister music) you know what’s coming. Suddenly things just get a bit too controlling, red flags start waving, one partner tries to pull …

This can be such a touchy subject, especially around corporate circles but I’ve got to put it out there… Nothing makes me edgier than hearing about loving yourself and nothing is more essential to creating a fulfilling life than loving yourself. What a huge pain in the “a”. I’m great at being nice to everyone …
I conduct workshops to help people overcome the fear of speaking up aka stage fright. Although in my mind (and experience) stage fright is so much more than the fear of presenting in front of others. When you really have this issue you have a big fear of being in the spotlight, of being judged, …
With each new year I take more and more time to self-reflect and assess. One thing I’ve realized since my late 40′s is that issues that aren’t fixed don’t go away, they get worse until you HAVE to look at them. What’s your foundation look like? I was watching “Rehab Addict” the other day and …
We all know that chaos can hit at any time whether we’re prepared or not. Last year, Hurricane Sandy left her mark with an unprecedented show of fury. Storms make me think of how chaos can strike at any time. When it comes to our careers it can hit without warning but more times than …

It’s almost the new year, are you having any fun lately? Everyone feels that the times have gotten more toxic. I’m not so sure. It’s just that now with everyone and their “ma” anonymously weighing in on Facebook, the news, Twitter, WordPress. We are just bombarded with the negativity that’s been around forever. A good percentage …
