Coaching, success, business, and self-help…

Every May I get a little anxious… I think it has to do with my anticipation of the kids being out of school, the heat, and the ants migrating into my kitchen to cool off. Over the years I learned to prepare for summer time by NOT starting any “heavy” projects and keeping my schedule [...]

After the first day of being in school, he said to me: “I felt so inspired and motivated, but everyone else stayed the same.” This is exactly what happens at live events, conferences, bootcamps, etc. [...]

How to Set Priorities in Your Business and Life
