The Best Lessons From Leanne

Where to learn the best lessons from Leanne? Choose your place. The classroom, in a counseling session, or at one of her Mental Health Empowerment Day (MHED) conferences. I first met Leanne Matlow (@leannematlow) at the latter, when MHED (@mentalhealthempowermentday) was in person and I had a booth to raise awareness of the program Brave […]

My Best Advice

As 2021 is quickly coming to a close, I have decided to share my best advice with all of you. I am no professional, but, as Lisa Borden (@lisaborden) explains, you can be your own best expert. In addition, the number of times that I have been around the sun, my years of experience as […]

Everyone Loves Ellen

I have known for quite some time that everyone loves Ellen Levy Schwartz (@EllenLevySchwartz), but it really became apparent every time I posted a picture of the two of us during one of our coffee dates. My “likes” on social media skyrocketed. Granted, I should not – ever – (and neither should you!) care about […]

The World Needs people like Megan.

The very first time I met Megan Cote Khosroshahi, (@megancotekh) I was convinced that the world needs people like Megan. Wife, Mother, Friend, dedicated employee, and all-around spectacular human being. Megan works with Lisa Borden (@lisaborden) at Borden Communications (@BordenCommunications) and The Akira Concept (@theakiraconcept). Her title is Director of Execution and Evolution. The way […]

The Best Collaboration

The best collaboration sometimes begins with a rocky start. In my case, it was a flip phone. “What’s that noise?” I frantically looked around, hoping no one would notice. But it was too late. My flip phone was making a beeping sound and I didn’t know how to turn it off. It was the early […]

Lovely Linda

Lovely Linda Kessler Shapiro.  Since publishing Get Up, there have been some podcasts and IG lives, but also blog interviews with the mentor memos. Mentors who have done some pretty amazing things in our world, who answered the question : What would you say to your teenage self? Just like this. Liz Waisberg’s (@lizwaisberg) interview was not a one-hit-wonder. I’ve […]

Wise Words From Our Mentors

My new book Get Up has only been available on Amazon for a few days and already I feel the need to explore the wise words from our mentors. Although I could go on and on about my second “baby”, (here is my first baby) there is nothing I have been looking more forward to […]

It’s Time To Get Up!

It’s time to Get up! My second book is finally published and I can’t believe it’s finally here!  It’s been two years of writing and re-writing. Editing, and editing again, and I’ve loved every minute of it while I worked alongside David Newton and Lisa Borden from Borden Communications. Get Up is a true collaboration. The teenage years […]

The Best Self-Care Discoveries

I am so excited to share with you, some of the best self-care discoveries that I have welcomed into my world. This didn’t happen overnight! It took years in the making, and it has to do with who I spend my time with! While writing my second book, Get Up, I have been working closely […]

The Greatest Grateful Goddess

“You’ve got to meet my sister-in-law, the greatest Grateful Goddess!” @LaraBrodkin said to me over the phone. “A grateful what?” I asked. As I was just putting the finishing touches on The Accidental Influencer, Lara was generously handing me the most wonderful opportunity, on a silver platter – but I didn’t know it yet. Meet […]
