Leonardo da Vinci once said, “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” To be honest, I don’t know if he said that. But that’s what the internet told me. But his quote resonated with me because I was forced to confront the notion of simplicity after a recent event. During my time on stage, while explaining how…
Like many, I’ve struggled to maintain New Year’s resolutions. But that’s why I waited a few weeks into January to share this article because I know we’ve reached the point when most resolutions fail. Good. Let them fail. We weren’t set up to succeed in them anyway. Instead, three weeks into the year, let’s take…

Whether it’s driven by a 24-hour television cycle, social media, or your next door neighbor’s conspiracy theories, there’s a lot of “either/or” going on. You’re either Republican or Democrat.

It feels like everyone already does it, has done it before, or started journaling on January 1st determined to make this year the year! My goal isn’t to convince you to journal. Instead, I want to share what…

In this episode, we talk about how some of the greatest magic happens when schedules go…
You’ll certainly see a lot of sights doing #vanlife, but you’ll also have opportunities gain a different perspective. In this episode, you’ll hear how an encounter at Big Bend National Park helped remind us to keep seeing the good even when the odds are stacked.
“Let me check my calendar.” “I’ve got an opening from 1:00 – 1:30, but then I’m booked until Thursday.” “You need 15 minutes? How does two weeks from now work?” Ever uttered similar phrases before?
