It is normal to feel like a stranger when you start at a new school, a new job or move to a new place. They do things differently and you don’t know all the ins and outs yet. The assumption is soon you will fit in and no longer feel strange but instead belong and get comfortable. The idea of staying a stranger is well…strange. It is not good to sta…

Ever had the experience of seeing someone create something amazing…the song they sing, the graphic they design, or even the company they build and think “that’s beyond me!”? Maybe it is, we all have different talents. What is not beyond you is living a life of impact. There is a catch, you must get “beyond me” to live a life “beyond me.” We all hav…

Family is wonderful and messy, complicated, and clear. All while bringing great joy and deep hurt. We hang signs in our kitchens about the value of family and quietly wonder if ours is functional or dysfunctional? Marriage, being a parent, having in-laws, parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews...with this many relationships one of the…

Fresh starts, second chances, and do-overs are incredible opportunities and subtle reminders. We are motivated to try again, do better, and get it right, but the reason we need the do-over is less positive. The do-over is needed because of the failure that preceded it. Join us as we investigate how to make the most of a second chance!…

Blind spots are never good. The inability to see what is behind you is why you backed your car into the pole. The fact your boss doesn’t see how his arrogance creates distance keeps him blind to the fact people don’t want to work with him. Not knowing their strengths and weaknesses is how people end up in the wrong role. But there is a more fatal b…

Everyone has them. Everyone has found themselves wondering, “What happened”? We all have relationships, and we have all felt the sting of an important relationship failing. It could be hundreds of different things, but about the time you have a smooth working relationship, life comes at you fast. Job changes, babies born, kids becoming adults, heal…

A few quiet moments, a chance to be alone and rest...sounds good, doesn’t it? At times we want to be left alone, but no one wants to be alone. Christmas can be encouraging or discouraging, but it is rarely neutral. Do you know why?? Christmas taps into an inborn drive we all have to connect. If we have deep connected relationships, Christmas magnif…

You live in a world of expectations. Parents have expectations for their kids, bosses have expectations for their team, and you, you have expectations for yourself. It creates a tension you can manage but never solve. There is who you are, who you want to be, and who other people expect you to be. How do you choose which expectations to strive for?…

Have you heard the expression, “life comes at you fast”? For some life is slow and predictable for most things are in constant motion. There are some wonderful surprises and tough experiences, but we don’t usually know when they are coming. You know when taxes are due, when your child graduates and your birthday…it’s the other stuff that sneaks up …
