This question is asked in 80% of my coaching engagements. The client might be in their 20s, 30s, 40s, or 50s. And they can be questioning a relationship, a career choice, parenting, or returning to school. Does this apply to you? Is there an area of your life where you wondering if it’s too late, if you’re

I am writing to you from King Spa, a shvitz palace I’ve been coming to for the better part of the last decade. Vat is a schvitz you ask? Shvitz is a yiddish word that means “to sweat”, and around the world, many cultures (including Korean) create venues where people can go to sweat intentionally. In Russia, you’ll get beaten with

We’re on hour 4 1/2 of my husband’s 2 hour pre-planned surgery. He’s having a rib removed due to recurring blood clots. The surgery is running 2 1/2 hours late and I’m not sure why. There’s a reason it’s running late, I just don’t know what it is. And I can’t get to the people who

Several months ago, a client showed up for our Zoom session with his Durga shirt on. He told me, “This is my Durga shirt and I’m wearing it for you!” I had no idea who Durga was. I shared this and he spared not a moment delighting me with tales of the Hindu Goddess of

Storytelling is an ancient art and a hot new thing. It was the talk of Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity (theme: Re-imagining storytelling), is all the rage with SEO optimization, and your Ted Talk to-be; it’s in the air. I frequently discuss storytelling with clients; our brains like a complete story. That’s part of why it’s hard to make

So the other day my four-year-old cornered me in the locker room at our town pool. “Mom, can you help me walk over to those girls and ask them if I can be their friend?” Ugh. Not this. Those girls were older, tall and thin, blonde, possibly wearing lip gloss, doing some sort of song
