You are an advocate. I don’t care if you are a leader, a sales professional or a teacher. It doesn’t matter if you’re a founder, an entrepreneur or a parent. You advocate every day.

The world really doesn’t need your authenticity. I know that’s not a popular opinion. People LOVE to talk about how all we have to do is “be ourselves”, and that authenticity is more important than ever in the face of AI and technology. The root of the word authentic is “be yourself, and that’s another […]
I bet you don’t always get what you want. Me neither. Whether it’s professionally or personally, big things or small, there are things we want that we don’t get. And I know why. There are two reasons we aren’t getting what we want. It’s one of two things. Either we don’t ask for what we […]
