Perhaps Michael Jordan said it best when he said, “Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships.” Certainly a business can have all the talent in the world and still not be successful. Therefore, staff must communicate and cooperate in order to be successful and achieve business goals. For example, if increased productivity is […]
After many years of doing weekly team meetings in my business, I’m deciding to stop them. I already barely take meetings for clients (unless it’s business coaching), so it only makes sense to move this over for my internal team. Granted, I still have meetings. I have meetings with my agent and my PR people. […]
At the time of writing this, it looks like I’m going to be traveling for client work this month. I will also be traveling to a business retreat the following month and a wedding the month after that. After taking a hiatus from traveling, it seems as if I once again have a busy travel […]
Hours and hours are wasted every week on unproductive meetings. And that’s time that could be spent on other important business initiatives to better move a company forward. Because it’s not only an employee’s time that’s wasted but an employer’s money too. According to research, $25 million of company money are lost every day on […]
I often hear business owners complaining about how much of their time is wasted on people who don’t take them seriously. Often times, I come to find that they give the free world access to their calendars. The truth is, at some point, you do need to be more selective about who has access to […]

Sometimes our bodies aren’t having it. It’s not necessarily a crash and burn, but simply your body telling you to slow down a little. For example, I’m recovering from being under the weather and a minor foot injury as I write this. You would think this has stopped me from getting work done, but I’ve […]
From heavy workloads to high-pressure bosses, the idea of achieving work-life balance can feel far-fetched. However, it might be time to figure out how to better manage both your professional and personal lives or else you could run yourself straight into burnout. In fact, the effects of a negative work-life balance could be more dire […]
We live in a busy world. Often times, we rely on stimulants like caffeine to get us through. I know I certainly do. However, too many stimulants can cause problems. As someone who struggles with adrenal fatigue, I know all too well what it’s like when your body is out of whack. Over the long […]
I often coach business owners through the best ways to use their time. It’s too often that they come to me having an idea of what they should be doing, only to find out most of their tasks are time wasters. I understand why people are confused. They think that certain things like spending your […]
