Happy Reformation Day!

my yellow bracelet

So I told you before about my little yellow bracelet that I switch back and forth from wrist to wrist in an effort to clear myself of sarcasm, passive aggression, cynicism and biting remarks. Well, I haven’t won that battle, but I do feel more postitive now that I have focused on ridding myself of [...]

shameless plug

Okay, time for a shameless plug. If you want to hear a little bit about what’s shaping me, you can go to www.gracecampus.net/podcast.html and subscribe to the podcast. Then when you download whatever week you want, I’m week two in the Upside Down series. Let me warn you. I’m a very scattered speaker. And I [...]

My tribe

So, no one has participated in my Tribes book giveaway. I began thinking about what I would name my tribe. Someone already has taken it, so I’m working on another one, but if they had not taken it, I would call it Mad Creatives, because I love creativity and being with people who are creative [...]

triiibes

Like a whole lotta other people out there, I’m reading Tribes right now. A new book by Seth Godin. I don’t know Seth Godin, but I’m loving the book and his thoughts on leading, moreso, leading leaders. I’m loving this book because I’m passionate about leadership, and empowering leaders. Turns out, my friends in Martha’s [...]
