Work Life Balance is Bullshit Jun 01, 2022

"Here I am in the conference room trying to do a presentation and this little one is in the bathroom throwing up and I thought Oh My God, what am I doing? I should have canceled or rescheduled - I felt like that was the worst moment of me trying to incorporate my business and being a mom."

I...

Walking in another person's shoes - What a gift! Apr 18, 2022

This was one of my favorite interviews that we have done to date. I loved it not only for Billy’s energy and fun story, but I loved how thought provoking his “why” for doing what he does is. That is to see a situation or life choice from a different perspective, to be able to...

Curiosity and Withholding Judgement Apr 11, 2022

This week we had the opportunity to speak with Billy Warden- and man was it a fascinating conversation. What I loved most was his journey. And it wasn’t specifically his journey that was amazing - but his personal growth along the way. 

I am the first one to admit that I have a hard...

Rediscovering your sense of self Apr 04, 2022

I love a conversation that makes you reflect on your past self, it allows you to see how far you have come and maybe provide some acceptance and, dare I say it, appreciation for all that you have been through. The good, the bad, the hard, and all the in betweens! When we were talking with Ryann...

Stepping into the Messy and Embracing who you are meant to be. Mar 28, 2022

I loved our conversation with Ryann - it was so refreshing and authentic. She said this quote above in the middle of our conversation and it just stuck with me. Mostly because I have been there! 

When we were building the Bradford - I was on kid duty, they were hungry, and I had to go to...

Partnerships and self reflection Mar 07, 2022

I stand by these words. Being in a partnership has been one of the hardest parts of my life and one of the most rewarding. One of the things that makes it so hard is the fact that YOU (in my case I mean me) and whatever it is that you are going through, is a part of that deal. This is the case in...

Your Identity is not your Function Feb 21, 2022

As a high achieving person - this concept of being identified as your function really hit home. I can’t think of a time I had a label that was not defined by what I did. I am a boss, a sister, a mother, a wife, a wedding planner, a venue owner, an employer, a speaker, a consultant, a...

Employees are People Too! Jan 31, 2022

What a force! It was so inspiring meeting Anne and talking about her journey to becoming the Triangle CEO of the year! She is such a visionary and principled person and I love how doing what you believe, even if it is not what everyone else is doing (or what makes sense to your accountant), leads...

Taking off the mask in pursuit of authenticity Jan 24, 2022

How exhausting it is to keep a mask on all the time? There's something to be said for just being your authentic and true self, and it's going to attract your tribe.

This is a question my husband actually asked me last fall - How exhausting is it to keep up this image you’ve created? He was...

Overcoming Disability to Help Others Jan 17, 2022

So much inspiration - I was left in awe of John and all that he managed to accomplish given his circumstances. I especially loved his ability to relate that to any and everyone who may be going through something tough, and believe me, if you haven’t already been through a hard time, your...

Being Grateful and Overwhelmed Jan 10, 2022

Have you ever felt this? I mean really, truly, felt like your better option for a life and career is to just hang up the boss hat and work for someone else? 

If you haven’t ever - I would love to know what your secret is! I have said this exact thing more times than I count! When...
