Sorry for the delay. My Internet went down last night. It’s back now. Let’s recap. Last week I talked about how I had been stalled/fired by a client for the first time. A few things I would like to clarify, for those more fond of jumping to conclusions. When I said that I thought one [...]
A few months ago, I got fired by a client. I know this happens a lot, but for me it was the first time. Okay, he didn’t exactly fire me. He stalled me. He said something like: “I need to postpone our next session for a few months. Hope that’s okay. Sorry for the change. I [...]
Many of you who read this blog are my clients; others of you do a bit of a double-take when I reference clients, like I did last week. Maybe you think I have an active fantasy life with lots of imaginary pals. I wish. I thought for those of you who may wonder what exactly [...]
I was talking to a client the other day about her focus. She is putting together a plan to go out on her own as a writer, and right now she’s feeling pretty scattered. Like many others in her situation, she’s doing a lot of work for free; trying to put it out in front [...]
“Shame- the less you talk about it, the more you have it.” -Dr. Brene Brown Deepest apologies for missing last week. I was traveling, and then a bunch of jazz hit the fan at home with my family. Not related to the travel, but boy it sucks to be two plane flights away when one [...]
I’m pretty sure everyone knows by now about my totally hetero-appropriate CEO-crush on Naomi Dunford. Anything good you’ve ever seen on TMP can probably be traced back to her and her influence. Naomi is so good, not only did she have a big part in bringing all of these elements to fruition, but she is [...]
I know what you’re thinking. That’s not a title you see every day. But I am getting ready to talk about this and this at a place I love tomorrow, and it’s reminded me of how important the little things are. Like what kind of underwear you’re wearing. If you know me well or have [...]
Over the past few weeks, I’ve alluded to some big changes coming for TMP. Since I hate drama, I won’t keep you in suspense any longer. Here’s the dealio: In 2011, TMP will be making some tangible resources available to help you advance in self-leadership. As much as I love e-mailing and coaching and twittering [...]
Well, finally, it’s done. What an amazing series! A dozen posts from some truly impressive guest bloggers to close out 2010. I must confess, back when I started this little “experiment”, I never thought it would last this long or lead to so many great things. I just knew I needed some time to FINALLY [...]
My “new” friend Sarah wrote this weeks post; the last one of 2010. I met Sarah about 14 months ago, but I already can’t really remember a time when I didn’t know her. She is a seeker of truth who walks with contagious hope and rare determination, and I consider it a privilege to be [...]
