The truth is, we can feel lonely even when standing in a crowded room full of familiar, friendly faces. 

What I’ve learned is that sometimes loneliness is not about our proximity to people. It’s about feeling alone in our feelings. When we feel like we’re alone, we’re less inclined to tell anyone how we’re feeling, which makes us feel even more alone in our feelings—trapping us in an endless cycle of loneliness. 

I call this the Loneliness Loop. 

Can you use your social media for good? Instead of giving up and deleting your apps altogether, here are some ways I've found to make it a healthier, more positive space. 

I had the opportunity to speak at the Executive Unschool event last week on the topic of Reinvention.

The speakers tackled the topic from every angle—reinventing your business, reinventing your brand, and reinventing yourself from the inside out.

The conversation was captured on Bree’s podcast, How Good Can it Get …

One of the things I’m most passionate about is helping women leaders show up for themselves.

It’s not an easy ask when so many people need or want something from you—family, children, team members, colleagues, friends, clients, parents, volunteer organizations, and more.

It’s a lot to balance, and it can be exhausting! So now I’m suggesting you show up for yourself too? I get it. You’re probably tempted to stop reading right now.

But what if we redefined what it means to “show up for yourself”?

The transition into a new year is a natural invitation to pause, reflect, and honor the year we’re leaving behind.

If you just try harder, want it more or dig deeper, you’ll get there. That’s the narrative we’ve been sold, but your success in reaching your goals does not come down to willpower alone.

Recently someone I knew passed away, and the news stopped me in my tracks. For a moment, the world stopped.

While I watch friends celebrate with family PJs photos and Elf of the Shelf, I’m afraid my husband would not put on matching PJs with me, and our pup, Bentley, may just eat that little Elf.
