The Definition of Insanity
What’s the definition of insanity? “Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” – Albert Einstein For me, insanity is standing still, in one place, knowing that I am not doing what is best for me; knowing that while others are apparently thriving, that I am standing still; knowing that I am […]
RIP: The Gift of “Running in Public”
I had a great talk with Josh Mathe yesterday for the podcast. He’s the author of the new book, I, Athlete: How to unleash your inner athlete and supercharge your life! —-which talks about all the great things that we can do to help ourselves, well, unleash our inner athlete. I loved talking with Josh, and I’ll be […]
Keep Building.
Tony Robbins said in a recent podcast (I am paraphrasing) that in order for someone to be the tallest building on the block–there are two ways to achieve this end: 1. You can work hard and build the tallest building, brick by brick OR steel by steel–which takes incredible effort, time, money and energy. OR 2. […]
Living Life YOUR Way
Yesterday, I had an incredible podcast interview (should air this week) with Lauren Handel Zander, author of the new book, “Maybe It’s You: Cut the Crap. Face Your Fears. Love Your Life.” This episode will air shortly – but listener warning – and READER warning – do NOT read this book if you don’t want […]
Career Death: A Love Story
I recently left the legal profession. Note: I was not removed from the legal profession. Point of clarification there, people. #notdisbarred I remain (and plan to remain) a licensed attorney. You know, just so I can whip out a demand letter at a moment’s notice, remind people that truth is an absolute defense to defamation (cuz […]
Kyle & Brent Pease: Together We Wheel
On Episode 4 of the Same 24 Hours Podcast, I interviewed two brothers who I just love, admire and think are two peeps YOU all should most definitely get to know, too. If you think you can’t do something, then think again. Kyle and Brent Pease are the ultimate “no excuses” brothers. Kyle was born with cerebral […]
The One Thing Today
If we feel healthy, we act healthy. If we feel well, we are kinder to others, we have more to give. It builds on itself. Happiness and health breeds MORE happiness and health. “BUT HOW DO WE GET THERE!? TODAY, I FEEL TERRIBLE!!!” When we FEEL terrible, other things also FEEL terrible. When things FEEL […]
One Word
I have admittedly gone through a bunch of changes in the last year and a half, and most notably in the last year, I would say. (Giving up booze and quitting a legal career in search of another life that is completely uncertain–just to name a “few” changes.) And now, while I sit here on […]
The Skin I Am In
In 2002, I remember distinctly this one “date” night. I spent time carefully putting on my make-up, styling my hair in a way that was appropriate for a night out. And then I threw my arms into a thick black cardigan, black pants and a giant black purse. It was August in Georgia, and the […]
