At the ripe old age of 32, I often think about my life, life’s work, and purpose on this earth. I often tell folks who complain / who wait / who fear / and who never get off the starting blocks that life is too short, and life is too long to do something thatContinue reading “Will You Die Young or Live Forever…or both?”

A Fish Out of Water
“Everybody is a genius. But, if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will spend its whole life believing that it is stupid.” – Einstein This quote (and that picture) gives me chills.

I am preparing to do a webinar on responding toContinue reading “You Are Stronger Than You Think”
Inspiration and Information
I have one of the best jobs on the planet. I am surrounded by people, for the most part, who are hell bent on improving themselves, and oftentimes the world around them. Students, faculty, staff, community partners; almost all of them approach life with possibility and positivity on the mind.

You wanna know what love is?
This post is a bit selfish – it’s not really for anyone but me and my amazing partner, Hannah Katharine Anthony. But if leading by example is good, then loving by example must be even better. Today is our fourth anniversary. Some say there is nothing significant about four years, it’s just another year goneContinue reading “You wanna know what love is?”
