Top Qualities of Powerful Leaders

Over the last month I had the great pleasure to interview 4 amazing women who are (or were) high-level leaders, executive coaches and consultants at Boeing, Goodwill, and the Military. Wow. They each had something unique to say about leadership and what it takes to be a great leader, and even though I asked them […]

Burn Out The Old And Bring In The New!

One of my favorite traditions is the Burning Bowl Ceremony. You can find one a the Unity church near you, but just in case you’re no where near a formal burning bowl celebration, and you don’t have a fireplace you can try the following at home. This is a “smokeless fire” (however when you burn […]

Because You Said “Yes”

The other day I was thinking about leadership, influence, and power and wondering to myself why so many people feel as though they are powerless, or don’t see how they make a difference in the world and the lives of others. Oh, you may be thinking to yourself “I know I make a difference.” But […]

Quantum Leaps Are Bullshit…or are they?

The #1 Regret Of The Dying

What do you think the #1 regret shared by the dying is? I wish I had a bigger house. (Nope.) I wish I had a faster car. (Not even close.) I would have liked to have had more money. (Um…No.) I wish I had bigger boobs, less wrinkles, and a butt that was so perky […]

Is Your (Internal) Government Shut Down?

Let’s cut to the chase, after all you’re probably a little tired of those little voices waxing moronic as they to waste time, deflect responsibility, and “keep you safe” in the spirit of your constitution (“I’m just made this way, I can’t do anything about it, it’s how I roll”). Here’s how to know if […]

How to Choose In order to Save Your Life (and Business!) part 2

In last week’s article I shared with you how the little voices of fear, doubt, shame, guilt, criticism, judgement, etc. are typically the ones making your decisions for you. How can I make such a bold claim? I’ll put it another way: Unless you know absolutely and with complete clarity that you are making decisions […]

How to Choose In order to Save Your Life (and Business!) part 1

I am fascinated by what motivates people to make a decision, then ask for accountability, then never follow through. I was talking to a friend recently, she shared that at a recent speaking event where she was keynoting there were 90 people in the room. She asked people to email her one action they would […]

How Can I Trust Myself?

Organizing your life and schedule starts from within, one decision at a time. ~KMP I was talking to a couple different clients yesterday about how they were feeling overwhelmed and too busy.
