I am switching gears over here a little bit as I move through “the trials” of late 2022 / early 2023 (a little more on that here) … I am hosting a new, perhaps more appealing, book club opportunity starting ASAP (mostly because I just can’t wait to dive in). After listening to this Psychologists… Continue reading New Book Club Opportunity

2022-2023 School Year Day Planner
I recently had a request for another one of my school year day planners for the 2022-2023 school year. While I prepped a year-long 2022 day planner in late December 2021 (you can find that here and print accordingly), some people prefer a day planner that follows the school year. This planner begins with August… Continue reading 2022-2023 School Year Day Planner
MAX-MIN-MOD
MAX-MIN-MOD ... this concept comes from Julie Morgenstern who I first “met” this week while listening to Dr. Robyn Silverman’s podcast, How to Talk to Kids About Anything. MAX-MIN-MOD is a simple framework for perfectionists (like me) to use when considering a task or activity they want to complete or engage in. Using the MAX-MIN-MOD… Continue reading MAX-MIN-MOD

Planning for 2022
As the year draws to a close, I encourage you to take some time to reflect and celebrate all that was in 2021! I also encourage you to take some time to make some plans for 2022. For me, the last few months of 2021 were a complete whirlwind. I was very much in “survival… Continue reading Planning for 2022

Possibilities
Though I used to be an avid goal setter and still am for SOME things (see SMART goals), in recent years, I’ve really struggled with the whole goal-setting thing … seemingly, I can pick something and stick with it for only 21 days at a time (which is why I generally host 21-day challenges) …… Continue reading Possibilities
Our Life Well Lived: Day Planner
A few years ago, after trying several different day planners, I found that nothing was really meeting my needs. To solve this problem, I decided to create my own JUST the way that I wanted it. My "musts" ... month-at-a-glance ... this included a calendar, plus a blank page nearby for notes, plans, goals, things… Continue reading Our Life Well Lived: Day Planner
Quitting
This week, “quitting” has been at the forefront of my mind. Initially, when considering quitting, a slurry of condemning phrases swirls in my mind. You’re such a quitter! What a loser! Winners never quit! You never stick with anything! After the initial onslaught of condemnation though and some more careful consideration of quitting, I found… Continue reading Quitting
Unplugged
This summer, I’ve been happily “out of the service area” many times … no (or painfully slow) service has served me well and reminded me of the importance of “unplugging.” As I was reminded, I will remind you … We don’t need to be “available” all of the time. We don’t need to provide an… Continue reading Unplugged
