Are You a Writer?
I’ve wanted to be a writer since forever. Somewhere in the box of school memorabilia and report cards I left in Florida is a story I wrote at ten years old called, “In the Fog.” It includes phrases like such fancies and alas, and it mentions dragons! Apparently, I had...
Something Better Than Changing the World (That Also Changes the World)

What Will You Be Known For When You’re 83 Years Old?
Over the weekend, I gave myself a challenge: Build a brand-new website in 10 hours. Not because I needed one. (Does anyone really “need” a website?) It certainly wasn’t a smart strategic move. There were plenty of other practical and productive tasks I could spend...
How to Stop Letting Fear of Failure Control Your Life
Last week in the IMPACT Creator’s membership workshop, Create & Sell Your Workshop in 72 Hours, I invited participants to give themselves any permission slip they wanted. “I give myself permission to fail,” one person typed in the chat. And it got me thinking…...
Let’s have a Wild Creation chat!
