It’s not too late. Even as we firmly plant our feet one month into the new decade, you can still look back at last year and see what worked, what failed and what needs tweaking. Life is made up of moments. What moments have you been producing? Sometimes, in...

I’m thinking of learning to play the ukulele. Believe it or not, it’s part of my success plan. When it comes to your brain: Use it or lose it! Your brain can either grow as you get older (“brain plasticity”) or you can get totally lost as you try to make your way down...

I get it. Not everyone is crazy enough to ride a bicycle 300 miles in 3 days. Not everyone has the time to train. Not everyone has the interest. But once I say yes, I never back down. So I’m ALL in. Why am I doing this? To raise money for Make-A-Wish and help grant...

The alarm went off and rather than hit the snooze button, I turned left and got out of bed. “Turn left” is my code word for do something different. Rather than begrudge another day of to-do lists and drudgery, I painted a different picture. How you start your day sets...

We heard this week that for every 100 women diagnosed with breast cancer, 82 will be CURED! That wasn’t the case 27 years ago. That’s when Detroit’s Race for the Cure started at the Detroit Zoo. I remember. I’m now in my third decade hosting...
