Fail Brilliantly
Learn from people like Michael Jordan about how to fail famously (Did you know he was cut from the high school basketball team? How about Walt Disney who was fired for lack of imagination!). Failure is part of success. The most successful people in the world are the one's who fail a lot. When we get to a certain age we realize that people might laugh at us if we fail, and slowly but surely we start trying less and failing less to protect ourselves. That's when we slow down our learning curve.

Trusting the Process of Life
Sometimes life goes sideways and we find ourselves disappointed, cheated, wronged or worse hopeless. Then sometimes life goes wrong in our favor; it rights our course, it gives us courage to do things we wouldn't do, and it puts us on track to our best life. The trick is to learn how to search for optimism and potential vs. getting bogged down in the "unfairness" of it all. In this show I share how to do that, and a personal story about a time when I lost what felt like everything, and turned up getting all that I'd ever hoped for.

Emotional Congruence
The art of emotional congruence is admitting to yourself what you are experiencing emotionally at any given time. When you pretend to be calm when you are nervous, your energy feels weird to the people around you; it feels incongruent. This is especially true with horses, which I learned at a horse whispering coaching event this fall.
