Launching a book has shoved me into higher visibility activities – talks, events, invitations to share my ideas. It’s exciting. It’s also exhausting. Maybe you can relate. Maybe you recently up-leveled your career through a promotion or a new job. What’s jumping out to me is that when you are in a period of growth, …
A few weeks ago, I found myself in northern Minnesota for a 3-day creator’s retreat that my friend Deanna invited me to. Duluth, Lake Superior, the Boundary Waters at the Canadian border…it was all so exotic for an East Coast girl! More than the beauty, what I took from the experience is just how nourishing …
