As I write this post today, I am taking a break from preparations for hosting my nephew's high school graduation party. With four daughters already graduated and out of the house, I thought I was done with this particular activity. It has me reflecting on my empty, yet frequently refilled, nest and the timing of things. It is such a common thing to say "I'll do that when..." When the children grow up. When things get back to normal. When...

​What I have learned about "when" is that when you wait for it, you never really get there. That thing you are feeling called to do, now is when you should start.

​Welcome to a new space for my "Words Matter" blog. It is my intention to begin sharing with you the books that are having a major impact on me and my coaching. I will use this space to introduce you to the works that are rocking my world and invite you into opportunities for conversations on the topics they introduce. I am so excited about the first work I am sharing with you; Dear White Peacemakers: Dismantling Racism with Grit and Grace by Osheta Moore. I had the privilege of being invited to the launch team for this amazing work and to read a proof copy. Official book release date is May 18th, so hurry and pre-order to give the book a boost or at least get in on those early days. I will be sharing opportunities for discussion later this summer, so keep checking in for details.
