Welcome to my blog!

Hello blog world and dear friends old and new! Because… I’m showing up, I am doing this exercise in vulnerability and overcoming fear. I can’t imagine anything more terrifying and (hopefully) rewarding than sharing my thoughts big and small. This is how I have decided to test my theories about why women (like me) are so reluctant to embrace fearlessness. I have no real research or expertise that makes my thoughts valuable. I read a lot and confess to being a self-help junkie just because I am curious about what a “best life” is and how to attain it without causing more suffering. I have found that what I am thinking and wondering about is often what my friends and colleagues are thinking and wondering about. In having great opportunities to explore those feelings and a little bit of freedom to do it, I have learned that listening and encouraging other women makes a big difference in my life and perhaps the life of others. Join me in a conversation about showing up.
