It’s cold here in the East, following up on some snow days. I don’t know about you but my schedule got all wacked-out last week and it’s left a bit of a mess to dig out of in the days ahead. When “stuff happens” and tosses all my plans up in the air to land in scattered heaps, I spend a few...
When in doubt, decide. When faced with a choice, choose. When stuck, move. Getting off the dime can be the hardest part of the day, so learn to identify the signs of being on the dime and resolve to get off it as soon as you can. There are no bad choices. Each decision simply moves us to a place...
When we start a new year, it’s tempting to list out everything we want to change, get depressed that we’ll never change and give up. Change can be hard to imagine, so focus on reframing the present. It’s a bit of a mental trick, but it can be very effective. Whether it’s the dynamic you have with...
Ever been in the eye of a hurricane? Me either, but I imagine that if I were, I’d take a moment between the panic to notice things in a new way, relax and prepare for the next onslaught. There are moments of calm in the storm, and when they don’t happen naturally, we can make them anyway. End of...

Strategies for the finish line start at the beginning, are adjusted midway and only become possible at the end. Re-focus at the end to win. Have you ever noticed how many of your plans fall apart at the end of the project? Time is running out to get all these loose ends wrapped up and sent off for...
Are you full? Sometimes it’s worth simply being thankful for whatever our life is full of. Whether you’re stuffed with turkey, love or work-left-undone, I hope you’re enjoying the fullness of it all today. There is so much lack in the world, let’s give “full” a little love. This isn’t just a...
On this day of Thanksgiving here in the States, I want to say that I'm grateful for so many things in my life, including and especially you, the readers of InPower Women. Actually, it's not just me. All of us here at InPower Women are grateful for your strength, your positivity and your personal...
Is asking yourself how happy you are a little scary? Don’t shy away from asking yourself the hard questions just because you fear the answers.
