The Foundations of Wellness
October 8, 2019
Here’s a thought that feels true for me: it’s so much easier to be grounded and happy when I feel good. If you’ve ever tried to a handle a frustrating, stressful or aggravating situation when you’re tired, undernourished or over-caffeinated, you probably had the experience of struggling to be at your best, to harness a […]
Parenting Through Connection
September 26, 2019
I’ve been thinking a lot about that word evolution lately. I looked up the definition on the dictionary app on my phone and it defines evolution as any process of formation, growth or development. After over a decade of being a mother I can say, without hesitation, that the single most impactful experience of my […]
Marching To Your Own Beat
September 20, 2019
One of my favorite things to do with the 60 Mindful Minutes podcast is to find guests that are doing life a little against the grain. As you’ll soon hear, today’s guest did not take a typical path. In fact, she still marches to the beat of her own drum. I met Emily Polar at […]

July 17, 2019
A few weeks ago I saw a quote on Instagram that has really stuck with me. It said: Do more of what you daydream about. If you were to peek into my daydreams you’d see travel, travel and more travel. To me, the world is an endless expanse of new experiences, new people and new […]

This week my guest was Alicia Braccia, who I’ve had the great fortune to know for about five years through our daughters’ Montessori school. This was a conversation that has the potential to completely revolutionize your understanding of the people you love in your life, especially when they are mad, sad or frustrated. Alicia […]
What’s Your Calling?
I recently read a Washington Post article linking a sense of purpose to our health and longevity. Here’s a quote: “Over the past two decades, dozens of studies have shown that seniors with a sense of purpose in life are less likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease, mild cognitive impairment, disabilities, heart attacks or strokes, and […]
A Cloudless Mind
I’m sure you’ve heard the research that says the average mind thinks between 60,000 – 80,000 thoughts a day. But have you ever really contemplated what these thoughts are exactly, and, even more out there, who’s thinking them? My guest on the podcast this week was Scott Byrd, who recently wrote the book A Cloudless […]
The Art of Community
I recently read the book The Art of Community: Seven Principles for Belonging and I was so inspired by its message that I reached out to the author, Charles Vogl, to see if he’d be open to being interviewed. As you can probably guess, he said yes. A big takeaway from The Art of […]
