Did you check for splinters this morning?

Probably not. When do you check for splinters? When you can feel that you have a splinter!

Why is it then that so many personal growth gurus encourage us to hunt down limiting thoughts and mental blocks? 

Here in our "What If" UP community,...

I've got a big question for you... 

By now, you've probably written down your goals, intentions and resolutions for the new year. But did you take the next step?

STEP 1: Identify goals, desires and/or intentions.

STEP 2: Tell someone who believes in you.

STEP 3: Cheer each other on as you...

Greetings from New York!

As much as I advocate for being positive, it's not so great when it comes to getting your COVID test results.

We had closed up our house in Colorado, packed everything into our mega-bus, disconnected phone and internet, and set out for our great family relocation to...

It's Moving Day! I'm keeping this short and sweet today so I can bring order to the phenomenal mess that moving has created in our home. There's so much to do!

Are you moving through a transition in your own life? Maybe a physical transition like a move or a new job? Maybe an emotional...

December is a time of reflection. What will you remember from 2020? How will the memories of the past year live in your heart?

2020 arrived like an intervention. Blunt, yet honest. Showing us what matters most to us by taking it away (or at least, placing it a constant 6...

When I was 8 years old, my neighbor (who was a teacher) gave me a gift that blessed me for a lifetime.

Her name was Iris. She often invited me to come over to her house to help her bake bread. I would always bring her the latest poem that I had written as a gift.

For Christmas that year, she...

I read a story yesterday that inspired me:

Aaron is an 8-year old boy on the east side of Los Angeles. Aaron LOVES Flamin' Hot Cheetos.

His mom is an undocumented worker. When COVID hit, she lost both of her jobs. She moved her family to a shed, sending her daughter back to Mexico to make...

There's a box of old VHS tapes I found in our attic this week. They have lived in this box collecting dust for over 20 years.

I don't know what is on most of these tapes, but in the back of my mind, I kept thinking that someday I would watch them, discover long lost treasured memories, and have...

Which way do you lean... Actions? or Ideas? 

When it comes to creating positive change, our culture celebrates tactical mastery... But what if mental, emotional and creative mastery proves to be an even greater asset?

The topic came up in our What If UP Club group discussion, and...

Must. Peek. At. My. Phone... Again.

Feeling a bit obsessed with election news today? Having a hard time focusing on anything other than the latest updates?

We all know it's not good for our mental health or our productivity... yet the discomfort of swimming in the unknown can be a powerful...

Are you a "people pleaser" feeling torn between what you want to do and what others expect of you?

It's natural to want our loved ones to feel happy and secure. But what happens when we find ourselves in a position where their buy-in seems to hinder our ability to step...
