Every speaker at the Neuroleadership Summit in San Francisco earlier this month shared some incredible insights and fascinating science – a personal highlight for me was hearing Jessica Payne speak about the neuroscience of Stress, Sleep, Memory and Cognition. I thought her tips were especially important and very practical – so we had a chat…
by Kerrie Phipps What happens when you set a goal/make a commitment? 1. You encounter resistance – it’s like there’s a test to see how serious you are about creating positive change. All kinds of things occur – you suddenly get busier than ever, and you think maybe it’s not the time for this after…
Have you checked your assumptions lately? By Kerrie Phipps When you’re having a ‘bad hair day’ and don’t want to go out and face the world, pause and take notice of your thinking. What assumption are you making? It could be something like “I’m not good enough”, “people won’t accept me” or something else that…
Gosh I’m inspired. I’ve had several very profound conversations today that have really put a bounce in my step and I feel like I’m breathing with bigger lungs, if that makes sense. This is really great, because I’ve had a virus that’s really knocked my energy out of me for far too long, and it’s…

Sometimes the year finishes all too soon, with goals incomplete, and disappointments scattered around you like the gift-wrapping after Christmas lunch. If you’re familiar with my writing or speaking, you know I’m passionate about celebrating. Reflecting on accomplishments and celebrating learning is incredibly valuable. It’s…
Honestly? I don’t blog as often as I want to because I want it perfect (or nearly perfect) every time!! This was my waking insight this morning… How often have I had something inspirational or encouraging to share and I have not shared.
