We’ve all been there—saving gorgeous garden photos to Pinterest boards with names like “Someday Garden,” thinking we’ll get around to it eventually. But what happens when you finally stop scrolling and start planting? Here are 5 practical tips for fellow garden newbies.
I’ve always loved personality tools that help clarify how we think, work, and lead. Recently, I was introduced to the Insights Discovery framework: a color-based system rooted in Jungian psychology that helps you better understand yourself and your team. In this post, I break down how the tool works, why it’s so impactful, and how to apply it to real-life communication, leadership, and collaboration. Whether you’re managing a team or navigating your own growth, Insights Discovery can offer powerful language and structure to guide your development.
As a follow-up to last week’s 4-part formula for writing authentic LinkedIn recommendations, this post explores how to leverage AI tools to overcome writer’s block and streamline your process (while keeping the genuine, personal touch that makes recommendations truly valuable).

Not sure anyone loves delivering tough feedback but dodging hard conversations doesn’t help your team grow—or build trust.

Two kids. Two graduations. One very full camera roll and some happy tears.
Dylan graduated from Jesuit High School and will head to the University of Oregon this fall. Mia finished her Motion Picture Arts degree at Capilano University in Vancouver, BC.
We are so proud of how much they have grown and all the work it took to reach this point.
June, you’ve been a whirlwind—in the very best way!
Cheers to all the graduates!🎓💚
The sun showed up today…just like it did the day Mia was born ☀️ Happy Birthday @mia.n.c ! We love you 🥰
