I don’t think anyone has had more poop dreams than I have. About 20 years ago, I remember someone saying “when you have poop dreams, it means you’re coming into money.” (I remember it being that long ago because home computers – i.e. searching the internet for why I’m having pooping dreams – was not […]

Today I am recognizing my Brave. Today I stop ridiculing myself for being slow or stupid or scared. Here’s my story: I AM BRAVE! Through fear! I GO ANYWAY! I’m terrified! I GO ANYWAY!

I’m a gym-rat. And if you’re not, you might not quite get the implications of discipline in my life because of the time I spend in the gym. We gym-rats — or people who workout, or your kids in PE — are a people who regularly and intentionally put ourselves in situations that we literally […]
