I have so many American friends and I treasure these relationships. It's painful we're being led so far away from one another. We need our allies to speak out and we need to stand up to anyone who seeks to diminish our shared history, respect, healthy competition and cooperation.

You don’t need to have felt depression to help someone who is experiencing depression. You do need to know how to listen, even when listening means simply sitting in a room with them. Everyone needs to feel loved and seen.

Learning from failure is a big part of success. I loved my conversation with @colinmochrie on Inflection Time. Get the whole episode wherever you get your podcasts.

Putting yourself first is also about letting go of people, jobs and stuff that is no longer serving you.

We don't need to be afraid of aging. We can reinvent ourselves. We can re-engage ourselves with purpose. We don't need to be forced onto the path that society decides for us. We can age on our own terms when it comes to purpose and relevancy.

Get out of your own way. Have you heard this before? A beautiful aspect of aging is learning to identify when an effort is not going to yield the desired results. It's liberating to walk away sometimes and preserve your peace and energy.

I have done a lot of pushing uphill in my life, not just with oars in my hands, but with projects and people.  Lately I have taken a little bit longer to assess if my efforts are going to yield results. If the answer is probably not, I drop it. No more uphill pushing.

You can feel your feelings, be so terrified you can hardly swallow, and still go out there and kick ass. Don't wait until you feel "ready" to do something big. Feel the fear and the uncertainty and do it anyway.

Growth is painful. The human experience is not meant to be pleasant all the time. The chapters of our lives are meant to be written by us in spite of how hard they can be.

Thank you to @heylandsberg for this deeply personal and important conversation on my podcast. This human being lives with his heart wide open and he's helping so many navigate their way out of the darkness. Listen to this episode of "Inflection Time":

I'm 60! Movement is medicine and 60 has taught me it doesn’t have to be intense, competitive or a workout.

Pay close attention to the inner voice guiding your decisions. It is your voice?

Election day. Today the only thing I can think of doing is pray. Pray for democracy. Pray for decency and freedom. Pray for the American people.

I smiled & cried when I read this letter. People w/ neurological & other differences shouldn’t have to go to a special room. My husband and I take our daughter to movies, concerts and plays. Thank you for affirming our choices.
