My mom’s house has finally been rented. A new family is moving in next week, and that’s a huge relief. It’s also been quite a process since moving her out two and a half years ago. We did nothing for three months, then hired someone to help us with an estate sale. Thus started the [...]
Convenience store = Crack house? As I was buying a candy bar at the “convenience store”/gas station, I was struck by the similarities between a crack house and a convenience store. I was surrounded by all the legal vises. There was tobacco of all sorts, soda, donuts, candy, chips, coffee, energy drinks, etc. etc. Wow [...]
My guess is that some of you have heard the song “Breaking Up is Hard to Do” by Neil Sedaka. Ugh and I am here to tell you – IT IS HARD TO DO! I have not talked to my “soon-to-be” ex-boyfriend yet about “the end” and I am dreading it. This decision did not [...]
My client and I were meeting a reporter for lunch 20 years ago. The reporter and we’d never met, so I described my client and myself: “We’re in our 30s, blonde, … .” She responded: “I’m in my 50s, and my face is melting into my neck.” I was stunned and not sure what to [...]

Have you ever started a new fitness program and then had trouble sticking with it as the time goes on? If you haven’t, you are a part of the minority. It takes effort and determination to stick to a fitness program. Some people can remain committed to their fitness programs just as though it was [...]
There have been several posts and podcast discussions on the site about women and beauty and feeling good in your own skin. I’ve been thinking about it a lot since the new season of What Not To Wear started last month, a show that I’m completely addicted to. People who know me might think this [...]
We all would like some further explicit direction on when it is time to move on to new challenges at work. At least I would. As I was lamenting to one of my dear friends who also happens to be a life and career coach a month or so ago, I was sharing with her [...]
How do you maintain your femininity wearing a suit? I choose to feel like a woman, dress like a woman, act like a woman; I will get the job done being a strong, empowered, woman in or out of a suit. We might be working in a man’s world, but I am just fine showing [...]
