real. meaningful. musings.
This past weekend, I threw the clock back, tossed off the covers, and went hiking! Who knew it was going to be good for business? A little crazy considering I haven’t done anything physically challenging since surgery, and really, since March. 2 days out, I’m definitely acknowledging that I may have been a bit overzealous…

A few weeks ago, a memory popped up on Facebook that reminded me of how things used to be. Back when I had a J. O. B. and apparently worked crazy hours, my little peanut came to me and said that she wished I had a job with not so many hours. I think she…

Today, my girls and I met up with Darren and his daughters (and his oldest’s +1!) at the Deerfield Fair in Deerfield, NH. We were looking for something to do that was the quintessential “fall in New England” activity, but didn’t involve hours of baking as the follow up! So an agricultural fair beat out…

What?!?! Seriously, who do you think you are? How many times have you asked yourself this question? My guess is at least a hundred if you’ve asked it once… am I right? The other day, I got an email from a friend and colleague in my business group who I saw last week at our…

A while back, I took the girls for their physicals and flu shots. Always a fun day on the parent calendar! In coaching our youngest, Emma, through her fear and panic over the shot, I was reminded of a sign I had received. It was during lunch on the day of our first webinar (almost…

Almost three years ago, I had the privilege of sitting in on a number of incredibly awesome sessions at Hubspot’s Inbound conference in Boston. I mean, wow. W.O.W. It was only the first full day, and I got to meet other marketers, CEOs, Entrepreneurs… all super cool in so many different ways. And all there to…

Overwhelm. It’s something that most of us are all too familiar with. It’s that gut-wrenching feeling we get when we’re struggling to balance or prioritize (too) many tasks, or when too much is going on and we might feel out of control. Are you overwhelming yourself? Ironically, as a small business owner who is “in…

Last week I had surgery. It was planned, although I don’t think we ever “plan” on having surgery! It wasn’t small, yet not so intense as some of the surgeries I’ve watched my parents and other loved ones go through… and it is already jam-packed with lessons for me. Some background I had a laparoscopic…
