I shared this to The Flourish Collective group a few days ago. It was insight that someone said resonated after my segment in the virtual summit. Practicing mindfulness doesn't mean your life will always be perfect but it does help you to build resilience for whatever you face and a deep and profound appreciation for the little things that some people spend their whole lives to realize were the big things. Happy Friday. Love your life today and everyday!

Let’s Talk About Lists

Before you take this the wrong way—I love lists. But here’s the thing: lists without deadlines are just wish lists.

When we assign specific times to our tasks, they stop being vague intentions and become actionable goals. That simple shift transforms what might have rolled over to tomorrow’s list (we’ve all done it!) into real progress today.

Try this small change and see how much more you actually accomplish.

My pups reminded me of this at 6 am this morning.

I hope some of you enjoyed some extra rest this morning.

There is nothing quite like one pup on either side of me and a cup of coffee in the quiet of the morning.

The beagles asked us to share this very important message regarding the end of Daylight Saving Time this weekend and its impact on their meal times.

Did you know one of my passions is helping leaders become more mindful?

Mindful leadership isn’t just about calm — it’s about clarity. Research shows it improves productivity, morale, and retention while reducing burnout. I’ve spent over 30 years studying mindfulness and exploring its applications in education and leadership, including research I conducted during my MAEd and through my current MBA studies.

Having worked extensively across both public and private sectors, I have witnessed how profoundly a manager can impact an employee’s mental health. Managers are the primary influencers in their organizations, shaping workplace culture and directly affecting employees’ daily experiences and stress levels. Supportive managers who embody the spirit of leadership go beyond driving job performance—they build trust, promote open communication, and make employee well-being a genuine priority.

Conversely, dealing with a toxic manager in a negative environment can severely harm both physical and mental health, sometimes leading to a range of stress-related issues. The positive influence of a good leader can significantly improve mental and emotional well-being. Effective leadership not only transforms the workplace but also leaves a lasting, positive impact that extends far beyond the office.

Time Management Tip:
If self-care keeps slipping to “next week,” it’s time to change your approach — not your intention.

Treat your well-being the same way you treat your other priorities: schedule it.
When it’s on your calendar, it’s a commitment — not a wish.

Balancing your time between career, family, and personal renewal isn’t selfish; it’s sustainable success. 🌿

Some people are conditioned to let others become the stage directors of their lives—until one day, they wake up feeling like a standby or an observer in their own story.

If that resonates with you, this is your reminder to step into the spotlight of your life and live it fully. You don’t need permission to take the lead.

I can help you rewrite the script. 🌿

Sometimes we’re so focused on what’s next that we forget how far we’ve already come.
Work toward your goals but don’t forget to savor the goals you’ve already achieved.
You’re not just building a life; you’re in it. 🌸
