January 9, 2018
Day 9 of the 500 Word Challenge. Teach something. Today was my first day returning to learn how to swim. With determination and little nervousness, I walked into the women’s locker room to change into my swim clothes. I walked did this weird walk on tip toes because I didn’t have on pool shoes or … More How to Overcome Fear with Confidence (My500)
Have You Finished What You Started? (My500)
January 4, 2018
Last year an admin from one of the many groups that I am a part of asked a question that I soon regretted and savored answering. The question was, “If you hadn’t given up on IT, (whatever it is), where would you be today?” I was having a pretty bold and transparent moment, so I … More Have You Finished What You Started?

Pushing Beyond Your Achieved Goals
June 20, 2014
I briefly visited with my former late pastor’s wife and as usual she was sharing some of the same stories that I have heard for years about the accomplishments of her family.

October 14, 2013
As a recovering perfectionist, I can honestly say that failure never felt so good. I have avoided failure or at least tried to avoid failure by not rocking the boat and doing just enough to “get by” for far too long. It wasn’t until tonight that I realized that I have been living my life … More Failing Great!
Do As I Say…Watch What I Do
July 27, 2013
A few weeks ago I was taking my son to camp and was running extremely late. Wanting to make sure that I dropped him off on time and make it to work on time, I began to break…a few…traffic laws. My son would remind me of what I was doing was wrong and how much … More Do As I Say…Watch What I Do
Regrouping for What’s Next
June 14, 2013
Before this year I would not join the group of people doing the six-month check in on my goals but this year is different. Three days into the New Year I had a rollover of which I survived with no physical scratches. A few months later my house was broken into and they stole my … More Regrouping for What’s Next
Starting Over
April 9, 2013
Starting over can seem like the hardest thing someone will ever do. You stand at the base of the rubble of what was and question everything that you ever knew or thought you knew. The life that you had planned for yourself and dreamed up never seemed to take hold or maybe it did. It … More Starting Over
