You can’t go back and glue the pieces of your life together again. But you can pick up the pieces you need and find a new way to connect them.

In this week’s blog post and podcast episode, you’ll get tips for building that bridge to a new beginning.

I’ll show you how to choose responses that move you forward, and I’ll ask five questions that will help you gain a better understanding of yourself, your abilities and possibilities.

Step Out in Confidence!

The fears that prevent us from taking that first step out of our comfort zone are usually connected to feelings of vulnerability and inadequacy.

We need people. We need to feel we belong. But we often sacrifice our ability to connect, achieve and overcome when fear takes center stage. We retreat rather than stepping out.
