A beautiful convergence of moments, Winter Solstice, Hanukkah, Christmas, all reminding us that light returns.
Extra joy today, as my father turns 95 soon and is still going strong.
Choose joy.
Light and love to all.

Last Friday night, I attended the Wake CountyBar Association’s 100th Anniversary at the Angus Barn, a joyful celebration of a century of legal service. Grateful to my friend Eva Kang for the invitation, and it's lovely to reconnect with colleagues. #lawyersofbluesky

You don’t need to react when someone attacks you. Stay centred, stay calm, and lead from strength, not emotion. Grace under pressure is a superpower.

Job losses hurt, especially now. But this isn’t the end. I changed careers at 48 and never looked back. The legal profession has evolved for 1,000+ years, from the internet to Google to AI. We adapt. We always have.

True leadership looks a lot like a shepherd guiding a flock, steady, trusted, consistent. Follow the voice that brings clarity and build environments where people feel safe to grow and perform at their best.

USA Thanksgiving is joyful for some and painful for others, especially given its history for Native peoples. If today feels complicated, you’re not alone. Take what you need, offer what you can, and be gentle with yourself.

International Men’s Day isn’t about “men vs women”. It’s about seeing the silent load many men carry, mental health, pressure, isolation, and reminding them they’re allowed to ask for help. Check in on someone today. And please share if this might help others. #InternationalMensDay #lawyersofbluesky

A former client reached out to share they’ve just been promoted — and that our coaching helped them stay grounded and focused along the way. Messages like this remind me why I do what I do. Their success is theirs alone, but I’m honoured to have supported the journey. #pgcc #success

Baked my first-ever apple pie today! It looks chaotic but tastes amazing. A good reminder that growth begins with simply trying something new, imperfections and all. Steak & kidney pie next… eventually! #lawyersofbluesky

Restlessness comes when life is full but not centred.
Realign your values, purpose, and actions — and the noise quiets.
