You already know this, but it’s worth repeating: You are more than a number. Whether that number is your age, your pant size, or your weight, the numbers in your life do not – and should not – define you. Now, while as your age increases, you are afforded more …
I survived the Corporate Challenge! From the massive crowds to the ridiculous humidity to the torrential downpour, it certainly was something to remember. I finished the 3.5-mile course in just over 55 minutes. That equates to just under a 16-minute-per-mile pace. Not my fastest, for sure. But it was super …
Tomorrow night I’m going to be doing something way outside my comfort zone. A friend of mine has talked me into doing the Corporate Challenge, a 3.5-mile foot race. It’s not the distance that’s intimidating – I walked 4 miles on Saturday morning just for the heck of it – …

Let’s all hop in my time machine (don’t worry, it’s bigger on the inside, so I know we’ll all fit) and travel back to 1991, the year of my junior prom. It’s a big event in the lives of most high schoolers. And for me, it defined my entire high …
It’s time for a Very Important Message. It applies to you whether you’re a parent or not (disclosure for those who don’t already know: I’m not). If you know any children at all, this message applies to you. Children pay attention to everything you say and do. Well, obviously, right? …
