I’ve been having these crazy thoughts lately. Crazy probably isn’t the best word for it… but a bit countercultural. Thoughts about what it means to unplug, to be the master of our days and time, and to truly connect and give our best selves to the people we love. Maybe you’re feeling this a bit […]

Today I’m sharing The AMPLIFY Show’s most popular episode of all time, and one the guest said was one of her favorite interviews. It’s my interview with Allie Casazza, author of Declutter Like A Mother and the host of The Purpose Show. In this interview, we chat about how to minimize stress at home when […]

For thousands of years, reflecting on our own mortality and inevitable outcome has been used by philosophers and people of all kinds to be better, to do better, and to make the most of this short life.

It’s fitting this milestone falls on Labor Day. He was the hardest worker I’ve ever known. Before retiring early due to disability, he put in […]
Fighting Back Against Parent Bully Mobs In this episode, I’m opening up about an increasing problem I’ve been seeing play out in my community and those across the country. It’s the evergrowing “parent mobs” – groups of parents who have thrown kindness and tolerance out of the window and replaced them with anger and divisiveness. […]
It’s fun to look back on how much my business has grown and changed over the years, as well as how much *I* have grown and changed, too. I wrote this blog when my business was still in the toddler phase: like my real life toddler, my business very much depended on me for all […]
