What IS Breathe, Empower, Achieve anyway?

With the official publication date of Breathe, Empower, Achieve: 5-Minute Mindfulness for Women Who Do It All just one week away, I thought I’d share why the BEA framework is so important to our success as women. (Men can, of course, benefit greatly from it, too, though women face some fundamentally different challenges. I address that it the book.) 5-minute mindfulness allows us to pause and step off that nonstop, overwhelming hamster wheel of busyness in simple ways, withou

Better than chocolate…

It can be uncomfortable — even downright terrifying — to open ourselves up to being loved. Allowing our hearts to be vulnerable goes against our protective human nature. In honor of Valentine’s Day, practice offering YOURSELF the kindness, compassion, and encouragement you so freely bestow on others. Without judgment, recognize the resistance and self-imposed barriers, and firmly, yet kindly chip away at them. Done regularly, the rewards are exponential, expanding our ability

Drowning in Chocolate?

jennifer pallian/unsplash The months of Many and June are replete not only with blissfully longer days, but often with full schedules as well: graduations, proms, end-of-school-year celebrations, outdoor parties, and various sporting events. With so much of the good stuff happening at once, we can easily descend into an unconscious state of automatic pilot, losing sight of the fortunate nature of all the busyness. As author Dan Harris aptly describes, it’s analogous to “drown

I am grateful for my clients who teach me just as much as I do them about life, resilience, and authenticity; my children — those little Zen masters who can bring me to my knees with alternating utter frustration or deep
