I love this quote because it encourages us to learn from our experiences. It takes away the pressure of being perfect when we start out. Through quiet reflection, we...

One of the most common questions that I get asked about dating coaching is:  Does it work?

Does coaching work?

I recently read an article that listed 25 first-date ideas to spark connection and romance. And while the list has some great ideas, they aren’t first-date ideas. They are second and third-date ideas.

You go to the date with a positive mindset, wondering, in the back of your mind, if this will be the date that ends all ...

Before you go on a date, you may want to decide what kind of date you want to have.

One way to do this is by setting an intention. What’s an intention? One of the best descriptions I have heard comes from Monica Berg, host of the Spiritually Hungry podcast.  She describes intentions as “how you are...

For the last couple of months, I have been trying to implement Most Important Task (MIT) an idea popularized by Leo Babauta.

The idea, which he outlines in his post Purpose Your Day: Most Important Task (MIT), is that your MIT is the task that you most need to get done today. He goes on to say that...

I love Leo Babauta of Zen Habits. His newsletter is one of the few that I subscribe to. This week his topic was stillness. In it, he points out that while going on a meditation retreat is a great way to find stillness, it’s not the only way.
