From seemingly the moment of my conception, I have had a constant craving to understand, to dig underneath, to tear off the wrappings, to embrace the mysteries of this vast universe we share, and to make it a better home for our children's children's children. I'm driven to push the envelope, question authority and be that grain of sand that irritates an oyster until it finally generates a pearl.

I do my little part to change the world by coaching senior level  leaders and their teams in large corporations to get real with one another. It's a joy for me when I get to work with people who come to  understand the simple equation that you can do well by doing good, and that you can do good by learning to trust – first in yourself and then in those who surround you, and ultimately, in the recriprocity of the universe.

I believe the planet is at a crossroads, and our ability to solve the complex social, environmental, economic and political challenges we face will call upon all of us to create a new model of collaboration. We need to listen more and talk less, align more and compete less; we need to overcome our scarcity fears and lean into the collective love, energy and brilliance a strong community can radiate.

And finally, we need to laugh more. The older I get, the more humor I find in life. I want us to take our work seriously, but take ourselves lightly. I want to see how far I can spit watermelon seeds, sing off key with my favorite songs, eat ice cream every chance I get, and pet every dog that crosses my path. We're all on this journey together. And, as John and Paul sang, “We're on our way home.”

“If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space.”
