Good afternoon! Real talk – I got so fed up with Elon and his chainsaw antics that I launched a pay-what-you-can coaching program for laid-off workers yesterday. The activist in me took over! As always, I encourage you to take action when you see something you don’t think is right. After 15 years of working […]

Hi there! Let’s talk about loving what you do today. Earlier this week — as I was ‘commuting’ to Point Reyes, listening to the Time Away playlist, and feeling so excited about the day ahead (I had plans for my client and I to meditate on a mountain, make desire lists on the beach, have

We’re here! Welcome to 2025. Hope you had a great holiday. I’m glad to be back to business as usual! This week’s note is on the criticality of getting outside before making big decisions. I’ll share my recent lived experience, and we’ll look at how that compares to science about time in nature. The lived

It’s that time of year! Hope you’re gearing up for a nice holiday season or that you have plans to keep yourself resourced through the holidays. Today, we’re talking about where you want to grow and how you want to give in the New Year. I’ve heard Tony Robbins talk about these two ideas as

The end of the year can involve big pushes that wear us out. My push was a two-day Time Away retreat at Terranea in Los Angeles. It was extraordinary – vision work on a cliff at sunset, deep unblocking work on the beach, and fireside chats to pull it all together. I felt lit up

I’ll be honest. I was dreading this holiday season and still feel a little nervous about it. The residue of past negative experiences around the holidays, combined with the current reality of aging parents, wasn’t making me want to deck the halls. I realized I was looking at December and thinking, ‘I just don’t want
