Coaching Coming Together – Recap
Here’s a recap of the audio recording project I shared in Coaches Coming Together and Why No Women.
The recording project was an amazing success — even better than I expected. Over the course of 3 days, we recorded about 9-10 hours of very unique material.
Our purpose wasn’t to create expert-style, how-to material. Nor was the intent to create a fair and balanced, sanitized, politically correct program.
Our purpose was to explore the edges of our comfort zones, to talk about the parts of our lives where we didn’t have complete certainty, to share things that could give us a vulnerability hangover th...

Foods That Fight…Illness, That Is
By Amy Campbell
That time of the year is upon us: the "holidays." It's not even Thanksgiving yet, but the stores are already filled with Christmas decorations and gifts. Holiday music is playing on radio stations. Holidays are fun, but this season can come with side effects, including colds and flu, heartburn, upset stomach, headaches, muscle aches, and fatigue. Medicine is often needed to treat these maladies, but if you're looking for something a little more natural and gentle, think, instead, about food. Food is medicine, too, and what better way to remedy your maladies and nourish your body at the same time?
Colds and ...

It's never a good sign when. . . .
It was shaping up to be a pretty good day. I got up a little early, packed my lunch, put the dog outside, left for work on time, and made it to work without incident.Where I walked in to find a patient, destined to be my project for the day, sitting on the floor of his room, screaming. And kicking and tantruming. Like a three-year-old. Refusing to get off the floor. Floods of tears. Demands that we call varied and sundry people.I've got such a hangover from that day that I still can't form complete sentences.Here's all you need to know: functional exam, drug-seeking, requesting Dilaudid (of course).

Three Cheers for the Rule of Law: Holding Deadbeat Debtor Argentina to Account
Doug Bandow
Being a creditor is a thankless task. The worst offenders are governments, whose leaders constantly promise their peoples a free lunch, dinner, and more.
Argentina is a typical offender. One of the world’s richest nations at the end of World War II, the South American country embraced political authoritarianism and economic populism. In the most recent Economic Freedom of the World rating Argentina came in at 137 of the 152 nations rated.
The country’s worst measure is rule of law, which is reflected in its treatment of international creditors—and steadfast resistance to U.S. court rulings or...

Easing into LIving with a Man in Mid-LIfe Crisis
I did some research on male mid-life crisis - what it was, how they felt, their typical reactions and what a spouse should do during this time. Yeah, seems like I was saying all the things they said NOT to say. After I wrote my last post, it was maybe a few hours later, my husband called me from work to say how frustrated he was with me. In my opinion, women usually want to "fix" their husband. I want everyone around me to feel good, be happy, and will go to great lengths to do that. Whatever he says he is unhappy about, I have a need to try to give him a new perspective to change his min...

My Beloved Ed’s Life Before and After Alzheimer’s
So Ed was infinitely better, but I was still in a state of total misery. I couldn’t even have what for me was a meaningful conversation with him.

Ed
Those of you who regularly read my articles here have seen many stories about my Romanian life partner, Ed, and my relationship with him. But all of those have focused exclusively on events during the years he had Alzheimer’s.
Now I want to tell you a little about the man he was (and the relationship we had) before he developed dementia and then how things changed as his illness progressed.

Ode to an Autumnal Hangover
Ah, the causal thread linking ale to Ibuprofen in the ruddy wake of a Autumn (that's "Fall" in Americanese, reader) ale festival in rural England. It's gone through various iterations, but here we see a young, undergraduate Dr. Samways simultaneously establishing his interest in the area of neuroscience whilst expressing his profound artistic incompetence at poetry. A Cuttlefish I aint, madam, 'tis true.There appears to be a Wildebeest inside my skull a'frolicking,Bouncing 'tween the bones and giving my brain a bollocking.It must have been there hiding in that cask of Old Peculiar -It’s not unlike a cow, you see, 'though...

Launch We Love: L'Occitane Hair Repair Line
Ok, guys. I'm really hesitant to admit that summer is winding down. I mean, I guess with all this crazy weather, it might not be, but for the most part summer is coming to an end and all the signs of a little too much fun in the sun are starting to show.
My freckly skin is definitely showing it (even though I'm OCD about sunscreen). My sandal-loving feet are definitely showing it. But mostly, my hair is showing it. Ocean water. Sun shine. Wind. I got all of those things in full effect this summer and now my strands are veering more toward limp and dry than shiny and bouncy. I'm calling it my summer hair hangover. (Source...

Are You Codependent or Compassionate?
If a woman doesn’t want to have sex with her husband but does it anyway to please him, is she codependent or compassionate?
That was the subject of debate a few days ago among some friends and I. Half said she was codependent and half said compassionate.
The line between codependency and compassion can be fuzzy because the intentions of both appear the same. However, while compassion promotes effective communication and mutual respect, codependency destroys the foundation of healthy relationships.
If you are confused, as am I much of the time, as to which activities belong in which category, here are a few questions ...

Tips For A Healthy Convention
Today I am traveling to the annual convention for the National Speakers Convention. This four day event is the highlight of my professional year and I can’t wait to reconnect with my fellow members and get new ideas to build my business. Four days in a hotel and six days on the road can throw a wrench into my healthy habits. Over the past few years I’ve developed some strategies to stay healthy on the road.
Tips for a Healthy Convention or Meeting:
Stalk The Halls: Three 10-minute walks during the day can be as beneficial as a 30-minute walk. Walk from your room to the meeting area – and take a v...
