Today’s episode was inspired by a commencement address I was made aware of recently. In a nutshell, be conscious of the way you think about the world around you. It really takes an effort to do this.

Wednesday Mar 10, 2021
At times in your life you will find yourself having to be a leader. I know, I know…. you may be one who avoids raising your hand and volunteering to lead but it’s more than that. Even as a parent you will need to be a leader. Today let’s look at leadership with a different perspective. Whether it is as a parent, teacher, heading a committee, company or elected official. Keep this in mind today - build your character first before you truly understand what it is to be a leader. I’ll take mine black, no cream for this one.

Let’s have coffee.

Here’s a question for you: What have you done in the last month that would justify your actions in the next month? At the beginning of each year we often look back at the past year. Have you ever thought about looking back at the past month and reviewing that instead of looking back at the whole year? Over coffee today I have a few exercises for you to consider.

Is our life really that short? This is a question that at first seems simple to answer. However, I would invite you today (over a cup of coffee if you like) to consider a different perspective on the answer to this question. Let’s take a sip and dive in.

Monday Jan 04, 2021
Monday Jan 04, 2021
This seems like an appropriate topic at the beginning of a new year but it is relevant at any time. Set goals; simply put, If you don’t know where you’re going you’ll probably never get there.

Monday Nov 02, 2020
In today’s podcast I decided that rather than hold off until I had something more organized to present, I would instead just go ahead and talk about something that seems so simple but so necessary in today’s cultural climate - get outside!
