  • a better way. week thirty

    I love Quiet Time. I am returning to the school environment after being away for the last few months. Prior to taking an official break, I took advantage of a few training opportunities while I was still in school mode. My last experience involved an activity where a group of (maybe) sixteen adults (school employees, […]

    Four years ago, I began making YouTube videos to complement the weekly blog post. It wasn’t just YouTube videos. (the YT videos only sustained for eleven weeks) I had quite a system. If I remember correctly, I posted a blog on Saturday. I posted a video on Sunday nights to Instagram. I made the longer […]

  • a better way. week twenty nine

    Do you wake up feeling inspired? Do you feel your day is filled with a sense of meaning and purpose? Do you go to bed feeling fulfilled? Do you want to? In Simon Sinek’s The Infinite Game, he describes his ‘just cause’ (his why for his what) to be that he wants to contribute to […]

  • a better way. week twenty eight

    If you read the previous post something more. week twenty eight, I included the first section of a marketing interview I am in the process of completing. It has been a ‘trip down memory lane’ as I am considering the questions asked and the most thoughtful, relevant, and (helpful?) responses. Today I will share part […]

    In the event you are playing along with the Book Clubs, there was no week twenty-seven for abetterway. We are still playing catch-up, but hope to be back on track for the July 25 Thursday Book Club post… As a warm-up for today’s excerpt, I am going to post the first section of an interview […]

  • a better way. week twenty six

    Happy slightly past the middle of July. It’s catch-up Book Club season, and today’s excerpt from abetterway was originally published June 26, 2021. Next summer (2025), I anticipate taking a blogging hiatus in June and July. I seem to have taken a hiatus this summer, just not intentionally. It doesn’t feel good to be ‘behind’ […]

  • a better way. week twenty five

    In the fall of 2005, I began a two year graduate program in Social Work at the University of Denver. I knew from the first day it was time to learn, time to absorb new information.  I have a similar feeling currently. Summer 2024. 52 years old. Time to learn. Time to absorb new information.  […]

  • something more. week twenty five

    Today is Wednesday, June 26. The original date to post was last Thursday, June 20, 2024. June 20, 2024 would have been four years since the original date of this excerpt from Something More. Connecting to the pulse of a Shared Humanity…by me. These June excerpts remind me of the ‘tone’ four years ago. The […]

    Today is Sunday Book Club on Monday. I’m not sure why I bother defining what day it is, considering these blog posts can be read any time. I like the Sunday and Thursday routine. Alas…summer mode ☀️ Speaking of summer mode, I am going to post the excerpt only. I am visiting at my parents […]

  • something more. week twenty four

    This blog is on summer mode. I began today’s post yesterday (Thursday) morning. Side note: if you are following the book club posts, there is no week twenty three for something more. Here is Friday morning (real time): I feel light and spacious… I feel light and spacious in my body… At this time in […]
