Talking Trash
One of the most beneficial things I have done over the last year was to write my newest book on self-talk, Self-Talk for a Calmer You. When Adams Media reached out and inquired about my interest in writing on this topic, I was thrilled. As a hypnotherapist and corporate coach, I have long known the

Whoops! Did I Say I Was Coming to YOUR Wedding?
One of the interesting things about understanding other people is having the chance to watch what others do – and, often times, observe how disconnected they are from their impact on other people. We all have moments of “It’s all about me” – it is secret number one, after all. But some people truly look

What Fills Your Filters?
In my book, “Understanding Other People: The Five Secrets to Human Behavior,” I talk about filters – those films we have in front of all of our experiences. Filters tell us what’s “right” and what’s “wrong,” and they color our viewpoint as we look out at the world. We don’t recognize the filters; we just

Who Should Be First?
The area in which I live is replete with four-way Stop signs. If you don’t have one of these near you, it’s an intersection where everyone is coming in from different directions with a STOP sign in front of each of them. You are supposed to take turns going, if there is a line of

The area in which I live is replete with four-way Stop signs. If you don’t one of have these near you, it’s an intersection where everyone is coming in from different directions with a STOP sign in front of each of them. You are supposed to take turns going, if there is a line of cars. If there is only one car at each sign, it is usually whoever got there first, and go from there.

YOU are MY Problem!
Today’s Boston Globe had an article entitled “UN agency reports domestic violence at ‘epidemic’ levels.” It went on to say that across the world, it is estimated that one-third of women have been abused at one point or another.
Assuming that most of these women are abused by the people who purport to “love” them, such as a spouse, boyfriend, father or male friend, what could possibly explain this statistic? Why would someone lash out at a person they were supposed to care for?

Thriving Work Relationships – Through the Ages
This week, in my inbox was an email from Rick Kelly, a colleague I worked with over twenty years ago at John Hancock. He sent a note to about 20 of us who all worked together and used to go to Cape Cod the second Sunday of every June for a conference. I have not talked to any of the people on this list for over two decades, and this note came out of the blue. It was a wonderful reminder of a time when we were younger and enjoyed being together on our “work time”!
