My perspective started in the Marine Corps.And I learned a phrase in Marine Corps boot camp that I will never forget. Instant obedience to orders. The idea is that you do whatever you're told, no matter how miserable i ...

Big issue of next gen. And that's my personal take as a mother is how do you give them and enough space for them to. I don't believe in forcing businesses down to your children.I think our big challenge is how do you give them enough space for them to express themselves, create experience, fail, retry the whole process that I think I was lucky to have and give them that space. Yeah, failing I think is fantastic. Failing is the best way to learn.I feel a lot there. A lot. What did you learn from failing.How ...

[Music] Have you ever felt behind in life. Not because you weren't trying, but because the path ahead wasn't clear. I work with students all the time who feel this way.Students that are smart, ambitious, capable, but feel stuck. And I get it because I've been there. For much of my life, I chased immediate gratification.easy comforts, short-term gains. Eventually, I swung into the opposite direction, obsessively linking my self-worth to my accomplishments. And if I wasn't impressive, I wasn't good enough.Now ...
