On the road again

Response to my new book, SIMPLY LEAP, has been overwhelming. Thank you for your kind emails and Amazon reviews, and for sharing this book with the people you care about most. It means a lot.

And all the building positive momentum has me on the cusp of my next leap! I'm on the road again, coming to cities near you and your loved ones. I would LOVE to meet in person!

New book tour and speaking dates have just been posted on my website, including: 

• Denver, Austin and Dallas at the end of the month
• Barnes & Noble in Poughkeepsie, NY on April 8 (!!!) 
• Washington, DC also in April in addition to other fun stops

I'm also scheduling virtual book readings via Skype. If your book club wants to host a chat, I'd be thrilled to join you - wherever you are in the world! A recent one, hosted by wonderful women in Cape Cod, even included cupcakes! 

Something tells me I'm not the only one in new territory, trying things I've never done before, and being scared & doing it anyway.  

I bet YOU are on the cusp of a leap this spring, too.

What are you scared-excited-scared about & doing anyway? How can I help you really go for it? 

Email me all about it! Leaping is always better with company.  

Hope to see you soon, in person and in my email inbox. 

Wafflers unite! | Pre-order by midnight!

It's a big, big week over at Simply Leap!

First, today launches my new monthly column on Unstuck.com, and it's for the wafflers among us. 

Unstuck is all about what gets in the way of making big life decisions -- career change, relationships, you name it -- and designed a fun personality test (I love personality tests, don't you?) to help you figure out why you're stuck and how to move through it. The test said I am a Waffler and now I'm Unstuck's official Waffler Champion! 

This is their awesome cartoon of me.

Waffling happens when every option in front of you seems viable and therefore impossible to choose between. When I feel this way, I can convince myself into and out of just about any idea, and then back around to the beginning again. 

Though it may not feel like it in the moment, I think our waffling is a skill the world needs more of. In today's column, I talk about how useful waffling can be.

Check it out, and let me know what gets in the way when you're making a big decision. While you're there, take the Unstuck test to see if you're a Waffler, too!
