I Can’t Think About #HRTechConf Right Now
On Monday, I got a dose of reality and was sent a huge reminder that there is something that is bigger and more important than any HR Technology Conference. My 11 year old Pomeranian, Willie passed away. It happened between meetings in Chicago. It seems silly to mourn a dog. Afterall, he's just a dog. But, to me he was more than that. He was someone who was my husband and I's ... Read Full Article
Reset. Reframe. Recharge. Why I Left Facebook
I have this place I go when I need inspiration, love, comfort or direction. It's a place that I go when times are tough, or I need a moment to reflect. I try go there every single day.

She tripped me on several occasions on the way to the classroom with my entire class laughing at my fall and ... Read Full Article
I’m Tired of Working and Living with Fear
I remember the day very well. It was someone I looked up so much I'd placed them on a pedestal. This person could do no wrong. They had it all: success, wealth, popularity and a family that loved them. Or on the surface that's what it seemed. It was one day they let their guard down. They let me see the real them for just a moment and I realized they were scared of being ... Read Full Article
How to Create Community as an HR Department of One
You know the song. One is the loneliest number. It sure can feel that way when you’re the only HR person within your office or organization. (HR peeps at small employers – am I right?) It’s rare that those around you, though often well meaning, get a true sense of what your day to day experience can be like. The ups, the downs and everything in between. It may seem crazy, ...
