For today's , let's talk about the importance of "alone time", especially during the crazy of the holidays. Maybe you're traveling today. Or have a house full of people. Or traveling tomorrow. Whatever. You know what I mean.

You might be stressed. Am I going to have time to get everything done for when everyone is here? OMG - if my sister-in-law even starts with [insert topic here]....

All of the things.

What if you flipped the 'dread' mindset on its head?

Look at the advice gave to a client recently on surviving when family is in town. Simple. Actionable. Relatable.

What are you dreading this holiday season? Has it already happened or are you waiting for the shoe to drop?

Remember, it's your life. Go the distance. Go Long.

PS -- And oh by the way, it is ok to "survive and advance" too if that is what you need to get through the week.

Are you struggling with keeping the happy face on this holiday season?

For this week's , let's talk about having to be "HAPPY" because it's the holiday season.

Many of us are suffering through some kind of grief, and not all of it is death of a loved one. And while that is difficult by itself, it is final.

But many more are suffering from ambiguous grief - the loss of a relationship, the termination of a friendship, or a family member that you no longer communicate with. Listen to a clip from my conversation with Nadia Ahrens on why it's real and it needs to be dealt with.

I was *THIS* many years old when I found this out and it comes just in time for 'Wisdom Wednesday'.

Stressed is desserts spelled backwards.

Honestly, sometimes the chocolate is the sanest part of my day. The issue isn't eating the brownie—it's eating it while simultaneously answering Slack messages, mentally drafting tomorrow's to-do list, and not tasting a single bite. If you're going to have dessert, have it. Just don't let stress steal that too.

In this week's , Adulting 101- Masterclass founder, Heather Redisch, talks about the importance of getting your kid to start using live communication (FaceTime, phone, etc.) in uncomfortable situations as soon as possible.

In this clip, Heather walks through a situation where one of her daughters had a conflict with a friend and how texting back and forth could lead to more problems. She then gets into how you can help your kids build confidence in communication skills from an early age.

The full episode is dropping tomorrow, but this conversation with Heather is full of great advice on how you can get your kid(s) to thrive as adults by starting the work TODAY. It's actionable, practical and relatable to anyone who is a GenX'er parent and struggling with their GenZ'er kid(s) in today's world.

Spoiler alert: In most cases, GenZ'ers aren't lazy. It's usually more about GenX'ers needing to let go.

Yesterday, Halle Berry told Gavin Newsom to take a hike.

No, not click bait.

Governor Newsom vetoed a bill that had overwhelming bi-partisan support in the California legislature that would have moved the needle on women's healthcare, particularly around menopause care.

Watch Dr. Emily Jacobs, Director of the Ann S. Bowers Women's Brain Health Initiative and Professor at UCSB, talk about what happened at the time the veto happened in mid-October.

Listen to the full episode here where Emily talks about how this veto will set back women's brain health research. We deserve better.

And Halle, you go girl!

Think your brain stopped changing after your teens? Think again. New neuroscience is turning this assumption on its head. Researchers are discovering that the adult brain undergoes levels of neuroplasticity scientists never thought possible. From pregnancy to emerging pharmacological research, we're learning that nature itself creates waves of brain refinement throughout women's lives. Your capacity to grow and change might be far greater than you realized.

Watch the full discussion on the latest in women's brain health with Dr. Emily Jacobs, Director of the Ann S. Bowers Women's Brain Health Initiative and Professor at UC Santa Barbara.

I had the pleasure of being on Karen Covy's podcast called "Off the Fence", where we talked about when a major life change happens, such as divorce, how you can still make time for yourself.

I've had multiple clients hire me because their ToDo list associated with their divorce was overwhelming them as they were trying to manage other chaos in their life.

Whether it's divorce or some other major life event, it's about breaking things down into smaller steps and learning to go slower as opposed to faster.

I talk about how I'm a recovering product leader. Well Karen refers to herself as a recovering divorce attorney, as well as divorce coach, Decision Coach, legal consultant, MEDIATOR, author, and speaker. I look forward to having her come on "Going the Distance" with Go Long.
